    That`s odd, a professional diplomat! Looks like the La Campora boys prefer Paris, London or NY.

    “Argentine Foreign Service Institute from where he graduated with the highest honours of his promotion in 1987.”

    So what does he look like after another 26 years of dealing with twats like the Kirchners?

    Mind you, he will find a few sharp operators in India who won't touch The Dark Country with a scimitar unless there is money up front. (notice what I did there?) :o)
