SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION IRAN US-PERUVIAN FTA US 
SPEAKER DAVID PALMER 04/13/06 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Today's most important international stories include 
the USG asking for "tough measures" against Iran, 
which has announced plans to obtain industrial-scale 
enriched uranium; and the signature of an FTA between 
the US and Peru despite Humala's opposition. 
Conservative "La Prensa" carries an interview with US 
speaker David Palmer, professor of International 
Relations at the University of Boston, Massachusetts. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND KEY STORIES 
 
- "Increasing alarm due to Irania nuclear plan" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" (04/13) reports "One day 
after having announced that it started to manufacture 
enriched uranium, Iran took one more step and said it 
is determined to make progress on the manufacture of 
industrial-scale enriched uranium... 
 
"The Iranian statement drew the condemnation of the 
international community and increased the high degree 
of world alarm unleashed by the controversial Iranian 
nuclear plan. Tehran asserted that its initiative has 
peaceful purposes and it is only trying to supply 
local nuclear facilities with energy, but the US and 
the EU believe that this is only a 'mask' to proceed 
with the manufacture of WMD. 
 
"... US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice urged the 
UN Security Council to take 'strong measures' against 
Tehran. She added 'The time for action has come.'" 
 
- "Washington asks the UN to implement tough measures 
against Iran" 
 
Conservative "La Prensa" reports (04/13) "One day 
after the Iranian regime announced it obtained 
enriched uranium, the US asked the UN to implement 
'strong measures' against Iran, which could include 
diplomatic sanctions. 
 
"US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said that the 
Iranian statement that the country successfully 
completed the production cycle for nuclear energy has 
proven that the international community's requisites 
remain ignored and this warrants a response from the 
UN Security Council. 
 
"The USG official clarified that 'what is at issue is 
not Iran's right to civil nuclear power' but 
international opinion that the country should not have 
either the capability or the technology required to 
manufacture nuclear weapons. 
 
"The UK Government also expressed its 'serious 
concern' about the Iranian announcement, 'which is 
contrary to the International Atomic Energy Agency's 
requirements.'" 
 
- "Toledo signs an FTA with the US" 
 
Conservative "La Prensa" reports (04/13) "Yesterday, 
the US and Peru signed an FTA, which both governments 
say will lead to increasing prosperity for the two 
countries. 
 
"Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo witnessed the 
signature of an FTA at the OAS between USTR Rob 
Portman and Peruvian Trade Minister Alfredo Ferrero 
Diez Canseco. 
 
"During a press conference, Toledo said 'The only 
thing I, as an economist, can say is that the 
(US/Peruvian) FTA will lead to the creation of more 
jobs.' 
 
"... Toledo added that he is 'realistically 
optimistic' that the Peruvian Congress will ratify the 
treaty before the end of his term in office, July 8." 
 
- "Toledo signs an FTA with the US and Humala 
complains about it" 
 
Ana Baron, Washington-based correspondent for leading 
"Clarin," writes (04/13) "Amid a complicated election 
 
 
process, Peru signed yesterday an FTA with the US, 
even though Ollanta Humala, the winner of the first 
round of presidential elections..., said he is totally 
against it. 
 
"... After having signed the deal, Toledo said 'This 
is a historic milestone,' and he added 'Without this 
treaty, the next president will not be able to fulfill 
his election promises' to create jobs for the poor. 
 
"... Ollanta Humala urged Toledo not to sign the 
treaty up until the last minute... His party, Union 
por el Peru (UPP), stated that if the treaty is signed 
and Humala wins runoff elections, he will call a 
referendum. 
 
"According to the UPP coordinator of the economic 
committee, Felix Jimenez, the FTA 'affects (Peruvian) 
national sovereignty' and was negotiated 'without the 
people's support.'" 
 
- "Toledo's bequest, an FTA with the US, which Humala 
questions and Garcia not so much" 
 
Carlos Noriega, on special assignment in Lima for left- 
of-center "Pagina 12," writes (04/13) "One day after 
the overwhelming election defeat last Sunday, in which 
his political party did not obtain one single 
representative for Congress, President Alejandro 
Toledo speeded up the signature of an FTA with the US. 
His legacy threatens to turn into a point of political 
and social contention for the next president. Toledo 
had to travel to Washington in order to sign a 
controversial FTA at the OAS headquarters. Ollanta 
Humala, the winner of the first round in Peruvian 
elections, said he disagrees with this treaty and he 
also added that if he takes over, he will use 'all 
constitutional means' to review this trade deal. One 
of the ways would be to call a referendum so that the 
people can decide whether to approve or reject the 
treaty." 
 
- "A Boston expert believes the '90s model still 
prevails" 
 
Agustin de Beitia, international columnist of 
conservative "La Prensa," writes (04/13) "The reforms 
of the '90s were positive for entire Latin America 
because they strengthened trade and reduced poverty, 
and there is no government in the region that has 
changed that model, not even Argentina's Nestor 
Kirchner. This remark, which challenges the current 
trend in the discussion, was made by US academic David 
Palmer, professor of International Relations at the 
University of Boston, Massachusetts, and consultant to 
the US Department of State. 
 
"During a press meeting at the US Embassy in Buenos 
Aires, Palmer sustained in perfect Spanish that the 
tilt to the left that is being observed in Venezuela, 
Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Bolivia, and 
'soon in Mexico,' is rhetorical rather than 
practical."
