Venezuelan negotiations with Holcim, Lafarge and Cemex continue
(Venezuela) -- The deadline to negotiate with foreign cement companies Cemex, Lafarge and Holcim expires next August 12, and according to Venezuelan Energy and Petroleum Minister and President of Venezuelan state oil company Petróleos de Venezuela (Pdvsa), Rafael Ramírez, the talks continue.
Ramírez said that talks have moved forward with some of the companies. Therefore, the negotiations are still underway. When asked whether the three cement companies or any of them had already expressed their intentions to stay in the country, Ramírez did not elaborate and only said, "talks will continue".
Negotiations with cement companies involve the organization of joint ventures in which the Venezuelan State would own at least 60 percent of the shares. The official said that they have not determined what government agency is to manage the takeover.
Furthermore, the local unit of Mexican giant Cemex said in a press release that during a meeting in the Venezuelan National Assembly, the company ratified its willingness to talk with former workers who are blocking the Pertigalete plant, an action that has disrupted cement shipments.
