SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION IRAN US-INDIAN NUCLEAR DEAL 
ARGENTINE ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING LEGISLATION US ALLEGED 
COMMENTS ON ARGENTINA'S BREAK ON EXPORTS MONSANTO 
LIBERIA US IMMIGRATION POLICY 03/31/06 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Key international stories today cover Iran rejecting 
UN ultimatum; a US reporter being set free by Iraqi 
kidnappers; the Financial Action Task Force asking 
Argentine legislators to label terrorism as a crime; 
the US "criticizing Argentina's suspension of meat 
exports;" the trip of an Argentine delegation to the 
EU to try to stop Monsanto's steps for the collection 
of royalties on its RR transgenic soy; and the visit 
of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands to Buenos Aires. 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" carries an op-ed piece 
explaining the alleged reasons for India becoming a 
new US ally, and an editorial on the trial for crimes 
against humanity committed in Liberia. Leading 
"Clarin" carries an editorial on the US immigration 
policy. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND KEY STORIES 
 
- "Iran rejects UN ultimatum" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" reports (03/31) "In a new 
challenge testing UN Security Council unity, Iran 
bluntly rejected the UN virtual ultimatum for the 
Islamic republic to stop its enriched-uranium related 
activities in no longer than 30 days. 
 
"... The US is the country that pushes most to impose 
sanctions on Tehran in spite of the fact that, 
according to analysts, an oil embargo... would be very 
costly for the US economy itself... 
 
"Analysts agree that, for the moment, the scenario of 
eventual sanctions is limited to possibly banning 
Iranian government officials' trips, freezing accounts 
abroad, and expelling the Iranian football team from 
Germany World Cup." 
 
- "India, a new US ally" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" carries an op-ed piece by 
Carlos Perez Llana, vice head, International 
Relations, Universidad Siglo XXI, who writes (03/31) 
"During US President Bush's recent visit to India, the 
US and India reached a historic deal on nuclear 
cooperation. If the US Congress ratifies it, India 
will stop suffering isolation in spite of being a 'de 
facto' nuclear power not endorsing the NPT. In this 
way, Washington could implement a double-sided policy 
- a friendly country is forgiven while others, like 
Iran, are punished. 
 
"This deal is a turning point in the US policy on non 
proliferation... 
 
"The US and India share a concern - how to manage 
China's increasing progress as a power... 
 
"The US and India have similar interests in the 
Islamic world. For Washington, the 'crisis crescent' 
is in the region, and India considers the Islamic 
presence in its territory troublesome... The 'clash of 
civilizations' in India is more than a hypothesis, and 
radical trends have appeared in both Hinduism and 
Islamism. 
 
"Also, India obtains its oil supply (not a minor 
issue) from the region, which explains the caution 
assumed in the Iran case. Additionally, the US and 
India are also concerned about the eventual 
destabilization of two regimes - Pakistan and Saudi 
Arabia. Destabilization could place Pakistan's nuclear 
and missile secrets and the Saudi oil income in Al 
Qaeda's hands. 
 
"This complex network of interests explains the sense 
and nature of the US-Indian nuclear cooperation deal. 
It is a strong bet between the superpower and an 
emerging power... aimed at guaranteeing stability in 
Asia and post-Cold War international balance." 
 
- "FATF insists that Argentine legislators label 
'terrorism' as a crime" 
 
 
 
Business-financial, center-right "InfoBae" reports 
(03/31) "After the approval of the anti-money 
laundering legislation, which attended to the 
Financial Action Task Force (FATF)'s demands, its 
president, Kader Asmal, asked legislators to make 
progress on labeling 'terrorism' as a crime and help 
the Executive Branch in obtaining a greater 
coordination among anti-money laundering institutions. 
 
"... The truth is that the draft bill is still far 
from the FATF's demands, although it could serve the 
Government to win time and pass the FATF's evaluation 
in the June international meeting to be held in Paris. 
 
"What is still pending is labeling terrorism as a 
crime in the Criminal Code as well as the cases in 
which someone should be prosecuted for 'terrorism 
financing.'" 
 
- "The US criticizes Argentina's brake on exports" 
 
Silvia Naishtat, columnist of leading "Clarin," writes 
(03/31) "The Argentine Foreign Ministry tried to 
downplay a document released by the US Department of 
Agriculture, which harshly criticized the Argentine 
brake on meat exports for 180 days. The document 
suggests that the interests of US corporations are 
being affected. Without mentioning them, it refers to 
Campbell Soup... and Finexcor, the only US cold- 
storage plant in the country, which belongs to 
Cargill. 
 
"According to the document, one wonders whether this 
sacrifice will serve the country to win the battle 
against inflation..." 
 
- "(Argentine) official mission to Europe due to 
Monsanto" 
 
Alejandra Groba, columnist of business-financial "El 
Cronista," writes (03/31) "Next week, an Argentine 
government delegation will travel to the EU and meet 
with Brussels authorities and the Customs Houses of 
four other countries in order to put a brake on 
Monsanto's steps. Monsanto has delayed eight ships 
loading Argentine soy flour at European ports and has 
sued the purchasers of those cargos for damages as a 
way to press for payment of royalties on its RR- 
transgenic soy. 
 
"According to an Argentine agricultural government 
official, what the Argentine delegation will attempt 
to prove is that 'Monsanto's 'modus operandi' is a 
strategic argument that the company is using to wield 
pressure because Monsanto does not need to delay ships 
in Europe in order to prove that the flour contains 
the RR-gene - it can do it in the country. What it is 
really seeking is to intimidate the Government and 
producers and obtain international support for its 
demands." 
 
3. EDITORIALS 
 
- "Latin Power in the US" 
 
An editorial in leading "Clarin" reads (03/31) "Recent 
large Latin demonstrations in several US cities 
recalled human rights mobilizations of past decades... 
These protest demonstrations were a sign of the 
increasing influence of the Hispanic people on US 
society. 
 
"There is a new, strongly multi-cultural configuration 
of US society, with the Hispanic community as its main 
minority... 
 
"Immigration policies can be both a tool of social 
integration and of exclusion. In the latter case, it 
deprives a great number of people of the civil rights 
enjoyed by the rest of the citizens. 
 
"Recent demonstrations revealed that the US is a multi- 
cultural society, that immigrants are part of and, 
therefore, deserve to enjoy same rights and 
guarantees." 
 
 
 
 
- "The judgment of Liberian crimes" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" editorializes (03/31) "The 
moment of truth is getting closer for former Liberian 
dictator Charles Taylor, who could soon become the 
first president of an African country to face an 
international court for having committed crimes 
against humanity. 
 
"... While Taylor is waiting to assume his 
responsibility, the 16,000-man UN Peace Force that has 
been deployed in Liberia must stay in the country to 
guarantee stability and support the popularly-elected 
president. One should not rule out that the former 
dictator will attempt to destabilize once again the 
political scenario of his country and escape justice. 
 
"Our country, which circumstantially has a chair at 
the UN Security Council, should actively support the 
continuity of the multinational peace force in 
Liberia..."
