So now, if it's going to be honest, Argentina will have to ensure that there is no blocking the international bridge linking Gualeguaychú with Fray Bentos.

Let's wait and see!

I believe there is no way to change the illegal acts done in Uruguay, and as an Argentine I belive we should close the bridge or turn it into a walking throught bridge, as british have right to prevent Argentine's from living in Malvinas we have the same right to stop any traffic going from Argentina into Uruguay, we have roads in Salta leading into Bolivia that can be used by trucker to go north as an alternative, as an Argentine I support the blocking and/or taking down of this problem bridge..

Thought so. Argentina is about to breach/tear up another agreement.

Message to all Uruguayans: Remember 1828. The Treaty of Montevideo. Fostered by Britain and gave birth to your country. After Argentina and Brazil had fought over your land for 500 days. Because they both wanted to own it.

gas - “we have the same right to stop any traffic going from Argentina into Uruguay” ?? How about the constitution of Argentina, Section 14. - “All the inhabitants of the Nation are entitled to the following rights, in
accordance with the laws that regulate their exercise, namely: ... to enter, remain in, travel through, and leave the Argentine territory..”

agreement ?? as I recall there was no agreement and this is why we should not let this bridge stay open for the good of our nation, how will we ever get any respect if our own roads are dictated from UK, I never heard UK asking USA to let Mexicans in from Mexico, I think this bridge is giving us a lot of problems and it should be changed into a walking bridge, not for cars or trucks, in any I am sure Uruguay wouldn't want an Argentine with my attitude inside their land, and as I said they can walk over like people do everywhere in the planet walk.
