The Swedish government is studying the status of 500 other Peruvians with reported links to rebel groups. According to Peruvian Prime Minister Oscar de la Puente (who also serves as Foreign Minister), Sweden was the first country to respond favorably to requests by Lima to crack down on rebel support and propaganda operations abroad. On Sept. 15, President Alberto Fujimori announced he would revoke the citizenship and request the extradition of Sendero members living abroad so they can be put on trial in Peru. Fujimori presented an extensive list of individuals and organizations he said were affiliated with the International Revolutionary Movement (Movimiento Revolucionario Internacional, MRI), which represents Sendero in Europe and the US.

    Observer Daily Summary, Monday May 22, 2006 Opening session: Balancing Globalisation Revitalising European growth Cities and globalisation Information technology - the next phase Fulfilling the promise of South-Eastern Europe Energy and the Economy Investment for Development Financial education Structural adjustment and social cohesion Creating jobs in the 21st century Keynote Speech: Overview Opening session: Balancing Globalisation Moderator: David Eades, Presenter, BBC World George Alogoskoufis, Minister of Economy and Finance, Greece Duck-soo Han, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance and Economy, Korea Jocelyne Bourgon, Ambassador, Delegation of Canada to the OECD Donald J. Johnston, Secretary-General, OECD The seventh OECD Forum was launched before a full house at the Kléber International Conference Centre in Paris by BBC's David Eades. Globalisation is a powerful and positive development, but though the public support and acceptance may be growing, as witness the relatively positive atmosphere in the room, serious imbalances had emerged that policymakers must address if that support is to be upheld. You cannot find a "bigger, more complex and all-encompassing subject" than that of "Balancing globalisation", said moderator David Eades of BBC World in his opening remarks to the 2006 OECD Forum. There are no simple answers to the challenges it poses either. In a light-hearted observation, Mr Eades suggests a clue might be found in Douglas Adams' novel "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy", where the indecipherable answer to "Life, the Universe and Everything" was found to be the number 42. Despite the complexity and vastness of the topic, Mr Eades has no doubt that globalisation is essentially a positive force, but laments that it has become a "dirty word", and suggests that it is the responsibility of everyone to push its beneficial aspects.
