President of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, congratulated President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, CFK, on Tuesday, following the results of the primary elections on Sunday in which she led by over 50 points.

According to official sources the two leaders are to hold a meeting prior to the G-20 summit. The announcement was made by the official presidential spokesperson, Alfredo Scoccimarro, at Government House press office.

“Congratulations to you Cristina. I was very happy when I saw the results” said Rousseff during a telephone conversation she conducted with the head of State, from Brasilia.

Cristina Fernández gave thanks to the warm regards given by Rousseff, and at the same time, underlined the necessity to “keep working together to ensure the continual growth of both countries, and the region”.

The next G-20 meeting hosted by France is scheduled for November in Cannes where the current Euro confidence and U.S. debt crises are among the main issues of the agenda to consider.

Keep at it girls, and in the fullness of time you may agree on something that will allow Mercosur to do what it is supposed to do.
In the meantime, these platitudes will not stop Brasil progressing and Argentina regressing.
