euronews interview - Carlos Slim: 'I am not a monopoliser'

http://www.euronews.net/ Meet Carlos Slim, the Mexican telecom tycoon who has nudged Bill Gates into second position for the third year running, cementing his place as the richest man in the world. Slim's big break came in 1990, when he snapped up Telmex, Mexico's privatised telephone company which now runs Latin America's biggest mobile network. So sprawling is his empire, they say Mexicans simply cannot avoid putting money in his pockets on a daily basis. Euronews met the business magnate to discuss monopolies and the financial crisis.
