1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
The major international story today is the outcome of the meeting 
between Argentine President-elect Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and 
Brazilian President Lula da Silva and their purpose of stepping up 
cooperation in oil and gas exploration between the two countries. 
 
2. OPINION PIECES AND EDITORIALS 
 
- "Lula and Cristina Kirchner reinforce integration" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion," front-pages a story by Lucas Colonna, 
on special assignment to Brasilia, who comments (11/20) "Cristina 
Kirchner's short visit to Brasilia served the governments of the two 
countries to make a clear wink that they intend to strengthen the 
(Argentine-Brazilian) bilateral ties. 
 
"After a 50-minute meeting, the (Argentine) President-elect 
announced they agreed to create an Argentine-Brazilian committee for 
cooperation... The new thing of the agenda is a topic that could 
become controversial - the choice to move forward on nuclear 
cooperation, about which no specifics were given. 
 
"... The nuclear issue is not a minor one for the agenda of the 
region. Nuclear development is a topic of concern for Brazil. Being 
the world's 10th economic power, Brazil considers nuclear 
cooperation a priority even as part of its defense strategic 
plan... 
 
"... Nelson Cervero, Petrobras international director, explained 
that the two leaders are determined to obtain concrete achievements 
as far as integration is concerned. This is why... the bi-national 
committee will work by issues not ministries. Energy cooperation 
appears as one of the central points of the bilateral relationship 
Lula and Cristina started to delineate in their meeting. 
 
"The point that will surely raise more expectation (and controversy) 
is their nuclear cooperation purpose." 
 
- "Cristina Fernandez confirms an alliance with Brazil that 
overlooks Hugo Chavez" 
 
Valentina Alvarez, on special assignment in Brasilia for 
business-financial "El Cronista," writes (11/20) "Argentine 
President-elect Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner's trip to Brazil 
ended with just a few concrete announcements and determined support 
for Mercosur... 
 
"After her private meeting with President Lula da Silva..., she 
asserted that 'we have decided to reinforce Mercosur bearing in mind 
that the world will interact in blocs'... She termed their meeting 
as 'very fruitful.' Cristina also announced that during her term in 
office, a bi-national committee will meet every six months with the 
purpose of 'reviewing the two countries' issues.' 
 
"... Following her meeting with Lula, the President-elect avoided 
talking about specific issues, although she was warm when labeling 
Brazil as 'a brother country.' She also said that during her term in 
office the issues of interest for the two countries will be analyzed 
'by subject and not by ministry' and that 'we have to create the 
awareness in the societies of the two countries that the integration 
process is moving forward with concrete and measurable results that 
can be exhibited to the society.' 
 
"In addition to the political gestures, two economic announcements 
were made after the short summit held in Brasilia... The most 
important was the construction of a joint hydroelectric plant in 
Garabi... 
 
"... A high-ranking source from the Argentine Executive branch that 
could stay in government under the Cristina administration also said 
that Petrobras and Enarsa (the Argentine state energy corporation) 
are working on the joint oil exploration in Argentine deep waters, 
which was indirectly confirmed by Lula. 
 
"... According to Marco Aurelio Garcia, the Brazilian presidential 
consultant on international issues, Cristina and Lula did not tackle 
specific political issues related to Venezuelan President Hugo 
Chavez..." 
 
- "The President-elect makes a wink" 
 
Daniel Juri, political columnist of leading "Clarin," comments 
(11/20) "This is the issue that makes a difference. Against the 
feeling of continuity given by Cristina's new Cabinet, the 
international scenario is where Cristina distances herself from her 
husband. 
"On international issues, the President-elect has already 
prioritized the Southern Cone in principle (she was in Chile, now 
Brazil, and in the near future she will go to Uruguay). Within the 
Southern Cone, she has prioritized Lula rather than Hugo Chavez, an 
old ally of Kirchner. 
 
"This is a wink because we all know that when it comes down to 
foreign policy issues, there are no math formulae. In this case, the 
order of any number of factors does matter."
