SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION US CANCELLATION OF BOLIVIAN 
SENATOR ZURITA'S VISA ANTHRAX CASE IN THE US ARGENTINE 
MEAT TO THE US MIDDLE EAST 02/23/06 
 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Today's major international stories include the US 
canceling Bolivian Senator Zurita's visa; the 
discovery of an anthrax case in New York; the US 
enabling Argentine meat (except that from a province 
that was affected by a recent foot-and-mouth bout) to 
enter US markets; and the current rupture of ties 
between Israel and the National Palestinian Authority. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND KEY STORIES 
 
- "Entry to the US is banned to Morales senator" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" reports (02/23) "The US 
cancelled the visa of Bolivian senator and coca leader 
Leonilda Zurita, who is close to President Evo 
Morales. This decision threatens to become a hurdle in 
the bilateral relationship between the US and Bolivia 
now that the two countries are discussing the terms of 
the anti-drug struggle in the Andean nation. 
 
"Washington made this decision on the grounds of 
terrorist suspicions... The senator had to return from 
La Paz airport when she was ready to travel to the US 
on an invitation from US universities. 
 
"It is the first incident of this kind between the two 
governments since Morales took over as Bolivian 
president last month amid the Bush administration's 
fears over Morales' defense of coca plantations and 
his close ties with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez 
and Cuban President Fidel Castro. 
 
"Alex Contreras, Morales' spokesperson, pointed out 
yesterday that the government is 'assessing the 
situation' and termed the affair as 'sensitive.' 
'Relationships based on imposed terms or blackmail 
should come to an end.'" 
 
- "US fear due to an anthrax case" 
 
Alberto Armendriz, New York-based correspondent for 
daily-of-record "La Nacion," writes (02/23) "The 
discovery of an anthrax case in New York unleashed 
paranoia in the city and fear all over the country, in 
which memories are still fresh of five dead and 17 
infected by this bacteria five years ago. 
 
"Nonetheless, this time authorities believe contagion 
is not related to terrorist activities. The disease 
was detected in a New York 44-year-old musician who 
had traveled to Marble Coast last December, from where 
he brought several untreated animal skins for drum 
manufacturing. 
 
"When the news was spread, radios and TV channels 
issued  alert and broadcast a press conference with 
Mayor Michael Bloomberg. 
 
"According to Bloomberg, 'Everything leads us to think 
it is an isolated and accidental infection and a case 
in which the disease was naturally transmitted,' in an 
attempt to calm down the inhabitants of the city." 
 
 
- "US promised not to delay the entry of (Argentine) 
meat due to foot-and-mouth disease" 
 
Ana Baron, Washington-based correspondent for leading 
"Clarin," writes (02/23) "The US agreed with 
Argentina's proposal to regionalize the problem posed 
by the foot-and-mouth disease. This means that 
Argentine meat - except meat coming from 8 Corrientes 
departments, the ones affected by a recent bout - will 
be able to enter US markets. 
 
"... Argentine Agriculture Secretary Miguel Campos met 
yesterday with John Benn, from the Department of 
Agriculture, and Richard Crower, USTR Main Negotiator 
for Agricultural Issues. 
 
"... Campos told 'Clarin' that now Argentina has to 
submit a written proposal, but, as is the case with 
Europe, the proposal has already been accepted. 
According to Campos, this will put the opening of US 
 
 
markets to Argentine meat on a safe track again after 
the problem in Corrientes. 
 
"Campos also discussed the access of Argentine lemons 
to US markets with Benn and Crowder... 
 
"Campos agreed with Richard Crowder on the concern 
over the possible failure of the crucial Doha round 
negotiations. 
 
"The royalty conflict with Monsanto Corporation was 
also included in the agenda of both meetings." 
 
3. EDITORIALS 
 
- "Rupture between Israel and Palestine" 
 
Leading "Clarin" editorializes (02/23) "Through the 
arrival of Hamas to the Palestinian government and the 
departure of PM Ariel Sharon from the Israeli 
Government, Israel and the Palestinian National 
Authority have entered a time that seems to be marked 
by uncertainty and, again, by somber predictions. 
 
"... Reality shows a persistent mutual lack of 
acknowledgment and of a true willingness to 
understand. 
 
"... A new escalation in confrontational blows and 
counterblows will only leave losers on both sides."
