G8 needs a gee up
8 July 20091Presseurop
To cut its debt, Portugal’s government has embarked on a far-reaching privatisation program. Brazilian, Chinese and Angolans are the main candidates for taking over its national enterprises. 
As the West stews in stagnation, emerging economies are on the rise – and driving prices of raw materials and fuel to perilous highs. As they now set the pace of the global economy, Europe, stymied by cutbacks and unemployment, is in for hard times ahead. 
An efficient diplomatic service is not enough: EU's member states are still lacking a coherent common foreign policy, writes Gazeta Wyborcza. 
The good news is that from Asia to the Americas, an increasing number of countries are coming together to create unions inspired by the EU. And the bad news? In the long term these entities may overshadow the EU on the world stage, worries Polish weekly Wprost. 
Haphazard organization, inconsistent agenda, the Italian PM’s derelict leadership: the G8 now getting under way in L'Aquila, Italy, is the object of widespread and acerbic criticism. “The summit is no longer representative of the current economic scene,” objects Brazilian president Lula in an interview with Le Monde. More generally, the European press wonders whether the G8 still serves any purpose at all.
