Mexico asks Venezuela to continue talks with Cemex

Economy The Mexican government asked Venezuela to keep on holding talks with cement maker Cemex, which was expropriated on Monday in the context of nationalization of this industrial sector, Mexican ambassador to Caracas Jesús Mario Chacón told AFP on Tuesday.

The request was made in a notice sent to the Venezuelan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There, Mexico advocates an eventual, satisfactory agreement on sale of stocks and prevention of seizure.

"We are interested in using the provision made in the decree (on nationalization), released on June 18th, to extend the term to continue talks" with the companies involved, said Chacón.

This is the least that President Hugo Chávez has uttered to refer to the US government. In urging the Bolivarian Armed Forces to prepare for war, he said that a US raid on Venezuela through Colombia would trigger and spread over the region "the 100-year war."
