Kirchner distances Argentina from Lula’s regional strategic realignment scheme
Recent moves by President Néstor Kirchner raise the prospect that the new strategic balance in the making could be upset by a breakaway Argentina seeking a separate understanding with the US. Kirchner has dissociated himself from Brazil's bid to represent the region in the UN Security Council, taken distance from the recently launched South American Community of Nations (CSN), and even suggested that he may adopt a less friendly attitude towards Cuba.
