    What lessons this saintly women could teach C.F.K.
    Bravery,honesty,straight dealing.and an ability to attract foreign investment.
    C.F.K. has none of these qualities.

    CFK has an interest in being compared and show close ties with Bachelet for herself to return in the future. Her wet dream is that Macri succeddes her in 2015 and has to default and cut the massive size of the state and all the other un popular policies that need to be done for her or Minimo Kirchner to return in 2019.
    The Argentine dipllomacy pressured a lot to get Bachelet to come over in her first trip to Argentina

    Nope the economic policy will remain the same...Chile has no interest in MierdaSur but the rethoric and attitude coming from the new socialist administration seems increasingly “atlantic”

    Dilma and Cristina curse each other behind doors but publicly smile and hug for the wishful believers of Patria Grande...Maybe Cristina wants to emmulate the same dupla they expected once of Dilma and her

    Important to note that the tinboy stood beside Munoz all the time to make sure the right things were said. Even then tinboy had to say some of them himself.
    How is the relationship with Chile a “warm one”? Last seen, argieland was planning to go to war with Chile. Probably still is. Not long to go now, tinboy, and you'll be off the Security Council again.

    You keep your enemies close, right? Whatever differences between the two countries - too many to list here - they are and will remain neighbours. It is always better to rub along with the people you live beside even if they are batshit crazy. In fact, it is even more important.

    CFK's arrogance and belligerence has shown that the only way to handle her is by flattery and a firm hand; velvet glove, iron fist. Everyone knows she is deteriorating fast and will not be around for long. Bachelet is looking long term.

    How is visiting Argentina from Chile qualify as an “overseas” trip?

    How many decades are they going to talk about another pass or train through the Andes?
    Sheesh!

    I f I were Chile I'd never let a pass get built. Who would want easy access for Rgs to come there?
