    The (Bolivarian) foundation of the Latin America and Caribbean States Community - to be known as Celac, which excludes the United States and Canada, will have five main remits:

    political,
    energy,
    social development,
    environment or climate change and
    economic-financial.

    I may be wrong, but doesn't Unasur cover these areas also?

    Unasur will be deciding what to do for next year “in a side-room of the Celac meeting”.

    Has Unasur no 'balls of its own'?
    Does it have to live by hanging on the coat-tails of every latest Chavez-instigated pipe-dream?

    Last time was in a side-room of the Ibero-Latin Conference.

    This is like the European Parliament deciding to run its Continental parliamentary meetings in a side-room of the the Boy Scouts of Britain annual jamboree!

    For God's sake, South America - HAVE YOU NO PRIDE?

    Perhaps someone will suggest it ?
