摘要

Caracas—Venezuela President Hugo Chavez’s convincing win of his fourth term will not bring important short-term changes to the country’s energy policy or in the running of state oil company PDVSA, according to analysts. Chavez won the October 7 election with 55.11%, or 8.044 million votes, versus 44.27%, or 6.461 million votes for his challenger, the 40-year-old Henrique Capriles.
