Praising its progressive policies and good governance, the Economist Magazine today named Uruguay its "country of the year."
This is the first time the magazine has chosen a nation state instead of an individual for the annual honor. Amazing.
The Economist cites "path-breaking reforms that do not merely improve a single nation but, if emulated, might benefit the world."
We've certainly benefited a lot in Minnesota from more than four decades of collaboration on projects with our counterparts in Uruguay, and we look forward to working together in 2014 with much enthusiasm.
"Modest yet bold, liberal and fun-loving, Uruguay is our country of the year," the editors wrote.
Congratulations Uruguay!
