SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION US PRESIDENT BUSH TO INDIA 
ARGENTINA CHAIRS UNSC IDB LOAN FOR ARGENTINA HAITI 
UNSCR 03/02/06 
 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Today's major international stories include US 
President Bush's trip to India; the IDB granting a 
loan to Argentina "in spite of US objections;" 
Argentina's supporting the strengthening of Haiti's 
Congress; and President Kirchner urging a 90-day halt 
to the construction of two pulp mills in Uruguay in 
order to allow for an environmental impact study. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND KEY STORIES 
 
- "Bush arrives in India to reach a polemic nuclear 
deal" 
 
Leading "Clarin" reports (03/02) "With the purpose of 
strengthening a very important strategic alliance, US 
President George W. bush arrived in India last night 
for a two-day visit in which the two countries expect 
to reach a polemic nuclear deal and boost trade 
exchange. 
 
"... While some 50,000 people demonstrated against 
President Bush's visit, the US president is confident 
his trip will be fruitful. 
 
"... According to expectations, the focus of the 
meetings will be Washington's cooperation with the 
Indian nuclear civil sector. 
 
"... Bush's first visit to India coincides with 
India's increasing political and economic importance. 
Washington considers it a huge market and a 
counterweight to China in Asia." 
 
- "Argentina chairs the UN Security Council" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" reports (03/02) 
"Yesterday, Argentina started chairing the UN Security 
Council. 
 
"The agenda of March includes several sensitive 
issues, such as the situation in Iran and Haiti, two 
issues in which Argentina has played a leading role. 
 
"In the case of the Iranian nuclear threat, during the 
last International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA) 
meeting, Argentina supported the US proposal to submit 
the issue to the UN Security Council. Regarding Haiti, 
our country takes part in the international peace 
force established in the Caribbean country. 
 
"... Argentine Ambassador to the UN Cesar Mayoral, 
said a public session is expected in which Haitian 
president-elect Rene Preval will participate in order 
to assess the democratic development process in Haiti. 
 
"Another important issue will be the nuclear crisis in 
Iran, Mayoral said IAEA director Mohamed El Baradei's 
attendance is expected." 
 
- "Support for Haitian democracy" 
 
Leading "Clarin" carries an op-ed piece by Jorge 
Arguello, deputy and head of the Argentine Foreign 
Relations Committee, who writes (03/02)"The Haitian 
situation recurrently hits the front-pages of 
newspapers due to the country's political instability, 
which multiplies the critical economic and social 
situation. 
 
"... The presence of Argentina, Brazil, Chile and its 
Latin American partners was not limited to military 
cooperation but it implies cooperation in different 
aspects of Haiti's ordinary life. 
 
"... As a consequence of the meeting we held in Port- 
au-Prince with President-elect Rene Preval a few days 
ago, we started to prepare a Congressional 
Strengthening Plan, which could be promoted by our 
congresses to support the Haitian Congress after years 
of closure." 
 
- "The IDB grants a millionaire loan to Argentina in 
spite of US objections" 
 
 
Ana Baron, Washington-based correspondent for leading 
"Clarin," writes (03/02) "The IDB approved a 500- 
million-dollar loan for Argentina, although all of the 
lending countries (the US, Italy, Japan, Germany, 
Spain and Holland) abstained from voting, except for 
Canada. 
 
"During the debate..., directors of those countries 
agreed to praise Argentina's economic growth and 
fiscal surplus. 
 
"However, there were objections on the way the 
inflation problem is being faced and also about the 
business atmosphere. 
 
"... An Argentine diplomatic source told 'Clarin' that 
US Treasury Secretary John Snow phoned Argentine 
Ambassador to the White House, Jose Bordon, to tell 
him that the abstention vote did not mean a change in 
the policy on Argentina, but that they opposed these 
kinds of loans based on principles. This is weird 
because on some other occasions they OK'd loans of 
this sort for other countries. Furthermore, according 
to the source, the US Embassy in Buenos Aires will 
release a communiqu tomorrow reiterating Snow's 
statements." 
 
- "The US expects the Argentine Government to make 
more progress in the struggle against drugs" 
 
Ana Baron, Washington-based correspondent for leading 
"Clarin," comments (03/02) "The US wants deeds, not 
words. In the US State Department's annual 
International Narcotic Control Strategy Report, which 
was made public yesterday, the US Department of State 
points out that there are two leading cases that will 
provide an opportunity to assess whether or not the 
Argentine Government really means it when it says that 
it is willing to fight against corruption and drug 
trafficking. 
 
"One of them is the case of the four federal police 
officers that are linked to the 116 kilos of cocaine 
found in a truck in Salta and the other case concerns 
four pieces of luggage containing 60 kilos of cocaine 
that were sent to Spain on a Southern Winds flight in 
September, 2004. 
 
"... According to the US State Department INCSR, the 
Argentine Government is concerned about 'Bolivia's 
political instability,' which could undermine anti- 
drug efforts in that country and increase drug 
trafficking toward Argentina. 
 
"The US still considers Argentina a transit country 
and not a producing country. According to the 
International Narcotics Strategy Control Report, 
cocaine comes from Bolivia, Peru and Colombia and goes 
to European destinations. Argentina is also a transit 
route for Colombian heroin en route to the U.S... 
 
"The US is concerned because Argentina is a source for 
precursor chemicals which are used in Bolivia."
