Statement by H.E. Mrs. Marie Chatardová Permanent Statement by H.E. Mrs. Marie Chatardová Permanent Representative of the Czech Republic to the United Nations on behalf of the Group of Eastern European States on the occasion of tribute to the memory of H.E. Mr. Dante Caputo (Argentina), President of the General Assembly at its 43rd session Mr. President, Mr. Secretary-General, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, I have the honor to take the floor on behalf of the Group of Eastern European States. It is with sadness that we received the news about the passing away of H.E. Mr. Dante Caputo, President of the General Assembly at its 43rd session. On behalf of the members of the Group of Eastern European States, I would like to express our deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Mr. Dante Caputo, as well as to the Government and people of Argentina. Mr. Caputo dedicated many years of his professional career as a diplomat and politician to the service of the people of Argentina, the United Nations as well as the Organization of American States. In the words of H.E. Jorge Faurie, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Argentina: “Mr. Caputo was the first Foreign Minister when democracy was restored and that gives him an important role in Argentina's history. He was a man who was committed to human rights, who respected dialogue and dissent and who listened to everyone, regardless of their rank or hierarchy.” After serving as the Foreign Minister from 1983-1989, Caputo was elected to the Chamber of Deputies and he served as Vice-President of the Foreign Affairs Committee. In 1992, Caputo represented the OAS and the United Nations in Haiti as a special envoy. In 1993, he was appointed the UN Secretary-General's representative to Haiti and negotiated an agreement to allow democratic transition on the island. From 2001-2004, he directed the Regional Project on democratic development in Latin America of the United Nations Development Programme. He also held various positions at the OAS, including Secretary for Political Affairs. Our thoughts and sympathy are with the family and friends of Mr. Caputo. May he rest in peace! I thank you, Mr. President. .

  • Argentina-Marruecos. De Los Impulsos a La Convergencia Político-Comercial (1989-2007)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repositorio Hipermedial de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL DE ROSARIO Facultad de Ciencia Política y Relaciones Internacionales DOCTORADO EN RELACIONES INTERNACIONALES TESIS Argentina-Marruecos. De los impulsos a la convergencia político-comercial (1989-2007) Mgter. Juan José Vagni DIRECTORA: Dra. Gladys Lechini 21 de octubre de 2008 Este trabajo aborda las vinculaciones de Argentina con el Reino de Marruecos, en el contexto de sus relaciones con el Norte de África y África, centrando su atención en el período 1989-2007, etapa en la cual se profundizó el acercamiento entre ambos actores y, consecuentemente, el afianzamiento de los lazos bilaterales. Se pretende explicar porqué las relaciones político-diplomáticas y comerciales con Marruecos se intensificaron y avanzaron en el sentido de una convergencia político-comercial, a pesar del descenso del perfil de las relaciones argentino-africanas en la política exterior argentina. El incremento sostenido en la relación bilateral se produjo debido a la implementación de una política por impulsos, de carácter agregativo, que se sostuvo a lo largo de estos veinte años, gracias a las respuestas e insistencia del lado marroquí y a los acercamientos desarrollados por Brasil hacia la región norafricana. Mientras en los noventa se avanzó con el enfoque comercialista, animado por las coincidencias ideológicas resultantes del alineamiento con la potencia hegemónica; en el siglo XXI el enfoque comercialista se acentuó, pero ahora bajo el discurso de la cooperación Sur-Sur. 2 Argentina - Moroco. From impulses to political and commercial convergence (1989-2007) This thesis deals with the relationship between Argentina and Morocco in the broader context of the argentine relations with Africa and North Africa specifically.

LADB Article Id: 77816 ISSN: 1060-4189 Argentina Leader Visits Cuba, Expects to Expand Trade Relations by LADB Staff Category/Department: Region Published: 1986-10-21 Argentine President Raul Alfonsin arrived in Havana, Cuba Oct. 18 for a 20-hour official state visit, and received the most rousing welcome experienced by a foreign head of state for several years. According to Cuban and Argentine sources, between 200,000 and 300,000 people turned out to meet Alfonsin and his entourage at the Jose Marti International Airport, and along a parade route into downtown Havana. Alfonsin was reportedly quite moved by the reception. The Argentine president's stop in Cuba was the last leg of a four-nation tour including the Soviet Union, Spain and France. Argentine journalists reported that the tour was an "historic one," and particularly the visit to the Caribbean island. Alfonsin's visit to Cuba marks the first of its kind by an Argentine head of state.

  • The International Development Research Centre a Brief History
    The International Development Research Centre A Brief History G. Newkirk, IDRC Green, IDRC F. IDRC C. Sanger, Cover photos, IDRC: Peter Bennett Lorra Thompson Daniel Buckles Neil McKee Yves Beaulieu The International Development Research Centre A Brief History “This is an idea whose time has come.” The sentiments expressed by Maurice Strong on the creation of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) in 1970 echoed those of many distinguished persons in the decades before the birth of this new Canadian entity. For some years, it had become apparent that the spectacular benefits science and technology were bringing to the rich countries were not reaching the developing world. In 1935, after taking note of the global imbalance in scientific develop- ment, eminent biologist Julian Huxley called for a truly scientific approach to the problem of development. United States President Harry Truman declared in his 1949 inaugural address that it was time to mobilize science for worldwide development. He was convinced that the technology that had worked for the devel- oped countries would provide the same benefits when transplanted to underdeveloped regions. 1 In the mid-1960s, the UN Advisory Committee on the Application of Science and Technology to Development observed that “Only a very small fraction of the world’s scientific and technical resources is devoted to the problems of the developing countries; the overwhelming propor- tion of the world’s intellectual capital, as well as its physical capital, is applied toward … the highly developed countries.” And in her 1966 benchmark essay, Spaceship Earth, British economist, journalist, and educator Barbara Ward (Lady Jackson) declared that “… mankind is … a single, equal and fraternal community” and that “… new technological resources, properly deployed, will conquer ancient shortage.” By the late 1960s, a climate of disillusion and distrust surrounded for- eign aid programs.
