Colombia and Venezuela Highlight Left-Wing Victory in
Uruguay
Main radio and TV news programs
and written media in Colombia and Venezuela highlighted on Wednesday
left-wing Tabare Vazquez´s inauguration in Uruguay and his first move of
re-establishing diplomatic relations with Cuba.
Colombia´s RCN TV News said with Vázquez' inauguration confirms Latin
American peoples´ current trend of voting for left-wing candidates,
something attributable to a failed neoliberal model in the region.
RCN showed images of the moment the new Uruguayan president decided to
re-establish diplomatic relations with Cuba as his first international
measure of his government.
In this regard, several radio news programs referred to the noisy booing
Uruguayans provided as a farewell to former president Batlle and their
happiness during the inauguration ceremony.
In an extensive editorial coverage, El Tiempo daily even warned
Colombian President Alvaro Uribe over changes undergoing in the region
and the possibility of him being isolated.
Meanwhile, in Venezuela, local media focused on Vázquez inauguration and
President Hugo Chávez´ agenda in Uruguay.
The Uruguayan President´s decision to re-establish relations with Cuba
was also highlighted.
Radio and TV stations covered a midday ceremony in Montevideo during
which Vázquez and Chávez signed agreements aimed at boosting bilateral
relations.
Vazquez said his country and Venezuela are facing the challenge of
joining hands to turn the region into a deeply human place while Chavez
stressed the just-signed protocols are very relevant for the region.
