URUGUAY: Vázquez eyes intriguing electoral alliance
The president of the state petroleum company Administración Nacional de Combustibles, Alcoholes y Portland (Ancap), Raúl Sendic, announced his resignation on 15 October in order to pursue his political ambitions. The resignation of Sendic has intrigued Uruguayan political commentators, who are debating whether he could be lining up for possible involvement in the ruling left-wing Frente Amplio’s (FA) electoral team for next year’s presidential elections, possibly even as the running mate of former president Tabaré Vázquez (2005-2010).
