EDITORIAL

It takes a big jump to cross a chasm So far, the government's stance on the Public Power Corporation, or PPC, has been indecisiveness. Now it's uncertainty. The self-imposed deadline for the privatization of the electric power monopoly - namely July of next year - is fast approaching and, as yesterday's interministerial committee on the issue made clear, the administration has not hammered out any clear plan for this vital reform.

COMMENTARY

Iraq and what it sowed The US midterm elections do not quite mark the end of an era, but they are still a turning point. Most analysts agree that Iraq was the decisive factor. The result was a resounding rejection of the Bush administration strategy. In that sense, it was more a defeat for the Republicans than a victory for the Democrats. Most importantly, Washington will no longer be able to display the unilateralism of the previous years.
