Game on Sacyr-Panama Canal’s dispute is over… is it?
MADRID | By Julia Pastor | The delicate pulse between the consortium led by Spanish construction company Sacyr and the Panama Canal Authority has become so stressful – too many actors, several proposals coming back and forth, mutual finger-pointing, and a two-week-extension that broke into pieces on Wednesday. Or that’s what we thought. The consortium working on Panama Canal’s third set of locks says it will continue to search for a solution to finish the works by foreseen 2015, although the Panamanian administration has cut negotiations. Of course, they denied any responsibility on the breakdown. “Time is over, that is all. We will not accept any blackmail,” PCA’s president said. Is this really the end of discussions or is the game still on?
