URUGUAY: Mujica snubs Argentines
President José Mujica began his final year in office on 1 March by presenting congress with an annual report to open the new session. The report was remarkable not so much for what it said as for what it did not say. In the introductory message to the report Mujica made no mention whatsoever of Argentina and, somewhat perversely, there was not even any mention of the country in the foreign ministry’s report either. Instead, it identified Uruguay’s strategic partners as Brazil, Mexico and Venezuela.
