URUGUAY BEATS OUT PHILIP MORRIS

Speaking during a televised address in Montevideo on Friday, President of Uruguay Tabare Vazquez announced that the state has won a landmark lawsuit against Philip Morris International. 

The tobacco company was trying to sue Uruguay for its strict regulations on smoking, and in particular, the decision to increase the size of health warnings on cigarette packets from 50 per cent of the cover to 80 per cent.
