Lula proposes an Arab- Latin American integration
Brazilâs President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva announced yesterday that the Arab- Latin summit which will be held next year in Brazil aims at fostering ties and political cooperation between the Arab states and the Latin American states, and to renew cooperation between them and create a new political geography for the world so that "the third world will have an important role in this world." Be careful, it may not be the role you think it is. Da Silva held the first visit of its kind to the Arab League during which a meeting was held with the secretary general of the Arab league Amr Moussa during which they discussed Arab issues especially the Palestinian issue, Iraq, and supporting cooperation between Brazil and the Arab states. Da Silva said that he came to the Arab League to deepen ties and establish strong and solid partnership and enhance political relations. And to study how to become president for life at the foot of the masters. Da Silva then, met with the Arab ministers of social affairs and with the Arab ministers accredited in Cairo and the ambassadors of Latin America to Egypt, and announced in front of them that an Arab- Latin American summit will be held next year in Brazil, aiming at strengthening ties of cooperation and political friendship between the Arab states and the Latin American states, and to renew cooperation among them, and create a new political map for the world, and this is to enable the third world having an important role in this world." Birds of a feather.... He indicated "we are ready to cooperate in all fields and to achieve an economic integration among the Latin states and the Arab states and to increase cooperation and trade exchange and the flow of investment."

It is his last station in his tour where he was welcomed by the Libyan leader at a supper banquet in a tent installed in al-Azezeyah quarters in front of the palace which was exposed to the American bombardment in 1986. Libyaâs Leader of the Revolution Colonel Muammar al Qathafi delivered a speech at the supper in which he called on the Brazilian President not to "trust imperialism," which he described as a force "that stands against revolutionaries." He said that imperialism "is still against us as revolutionaries, and what is taking place in Venezuela is the best example on that. The acts of conspiracy is not ruled out that it would move from Venezuela to Brazil." The Venezuela - Brazil - Libya Axis of Revolutionaries? Posted by: Steve 2003-12-10 |
