ARGENTINA: Kirchner courts opposition
President Néstor Kirchner has made his second major bid to attract cross-party support for his government. The initial effort to create what he called a 'transverse alliance' faded last year, but, aware that support within his own Partido Justicialista (PJ, or Peronist party) is by no means
guaranteed, Kirchner has now sought the co-operation of the opposition Unión Cívica Radical
(UCR).
