Beneath the Surface: Argentine-United States Relations As Perón Assumed the Presidency
Beneath the Surface: Argentine-United States Relations as Perón Assumed the Presidency Vivian Reed June 5, 2009 HST 600 Latin American Seminar Dr. John Rector 1 Juan Domingo Perón was elected President of Argentina on February 24, 1946,1 just as the world was beginning to recover from World War II and experiencing the first traces of the Cold War. The relationship between Argentina and the United States was both strained and uncertain at this time. The newly elected Perón and his controversial wife, Eva, represented Argentina. The United States’ presence in Argentina for the preceding year was primarily presented through Ambassador Spruille Braden.2 These men had vastly differing perspectives and visions for Argentina. The contest between them was indicative of the relationship between the two nations. Beneath the public and well-documented contest between Perón and United States under the leadership of Braden and his successors, there was another player whose presence was almost unnoticed. The impact of this player was subtlety effective in normalizing relations between Argentina and the United States. The player in question was former United States President Herbert Hoover, who paid a visit to Argentina and Perón in June of 1946. This paper will attempt to describe the nature of Argentine-United States relations in mid-1946. Hoover’s mission and insights will be examined. In addition, the impact of his visit will be assessed in light of unfolding events and the subsequent historiography. The most interesting aspect of the historiography is the marked absence of this episode in studies of Perón and Argentina3 even though it involved a former United States President and the relations with 1 Alexander, 53. -
Buenos Aires, 26 February 2015. in This Court Case No. 777/2015, Styled
Buenos Aires, 26 February 2015. In this Court Case No. 777/2015, styled: “Fernández de Kirchner Cristina y otros s/encubrimiento” [on cover-up] registered with Clerk’s Office No. 5 of this Court; Background These proceedings were initiated as a result of the accusation made on 14 January 2015, within the framework of Case No. 3446/2012, entitled “Velazco, Carlos Alfredo y otros por abuso de autoridad y violación de los deberes de funcionario público” [on abuse of authority and breach of the duties of public officials] —Court No. 4 in Federal Criminal and Correctional Matters for the City of Buenos Aires, Clerk’s Office No. 8— by Alberto Nisman, General Prosecutor in charge of the Prosecutorial Investigation Unit dealing with the bombings of 18 July 1994 against the AMIA building. In his accusation, said Prosecutor informed about the existence of an alleged “criminal plan” purportedly intended to give impunity to the Iranian nationals accused in that case —who are fugitives since 2007— in order for them to be able to escape the investigation and be released from any measures taken by the Argentine courts with jurisdiction over the case. As stated in such accusation, the scheme was allegedly carried out by “high authorities of the Argentine federal government, with the cooperation of third parties, which entails a criminal action that constitutes, a priori, the following offences: aggravated cover-up, prevention or hindrance of the performance of official duties, and breach of the duties incumbent upon public officials (Sections 277 (1) and (3), 241 (2) and 248 of the Criminal Code).” Preliminary Considerations First, it bears noting that this Court is fully aware of the widespread and major — domestic and international— public and institutional repercussion of the accusation made by Alberto Nisman, in his capacity as General Prosecutor in charge of the Prosecutorial Investigation Unit dealing with the bombings of 18 July 1994 against the AMIA bombings, which has been the starting point of these proceedings. -

Madam Prosecutor: Elisa María A. CARRIÓ, on My Own Behalf
Madam Prosecutor: Elisa María A. CARRIÓ, on my own behalf, National Deputy domiciled at my public office located at Riobamba 25, office 708 (Attached to the 2nd Chamber of Deputies of the Nation), in this Federal Capital, in case No. 3559/2015, I come before the representative of the Public Prosecutor’s Office and respectfully state as follows: I. PURPOSE: I enclose the following information on the occasion of submitting my witness statement on today’s date, which I believe will be of use in clarifying the events being investigated in the present case. II. IRAN’S INTELLIGENCE WAR AND THE THREE ATTACKS PERPETRATED AGAINST ARGENTINA. Iran has launched an intelligence war in the struggle it is waging against its regional enemies who do not belong to the Shiite crescent (Israel and Saudi Arabia), which it is perpetrating utilizing two major groups: the traditional Iranian grouping on the one hand and that composed of terrorist organizations such as the Lebanese Hezbollah group on the other; this intelligence is gathered via mosques and is characterized by the perpetration of terrorist attacks as a means of attacking its enemies (The regime of the ayatollah). The attacks carried out by the second group, to which Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Mohsen Rabbani, among others, have belonged are perpetrated wherever in the world that favorable conditions exist to carry them out through lack of vigilance, the availability of local connections, etc. [Islamic] Jihad, which means resistance or guerrilla warfare, was founded with Iranian assistance in Beirut. This intelligence war prompted the first ever attack on Argentine soil, against the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires. -

BANK CRISIS IN ARGENTINA: THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF BANK DEPOSITS PESIFICATION, THE MASSA CASE Ignacio Hirigoyen* I. INTRODUCTION RGENTINA experienced its biggest bank crisis in history from 2000 to 2002. The financial crisis was so severe that it is re- garded as one of the most severe to ever occur during a peace- time period. At one point during such economic turmoil, Argentina went through five presidents in eight days. The fifth President, Eduardo Duhalde,1 declared a state of economic emergency 2 and made executive decisions, taking economic measures that were the source of much con- troversy and litigation. This paper will address the Massa case,3 which arose out of a challenge to the constitutionality of such executive deci- sions and went all the way through to Argentina's Corte Suprema de Jus- ticia de la Naci6n (Supreme Court). -
