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.

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

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