BRAZIL / MISNA ON Ladysilvia; Over 30,000 people took the streets of Sao Paolo in protest against George W. Bush, who yesterday began his widely contested Latin American tour in Brazil, in a night of high tension and unrest between demonstrators and police that resulted in at least twenty wounded. The mobilisation, promoted by numerous social organisations " from the Movement of the Sem Terra (Landless) farm-workers (MST) to the Coordination of women of Brazil (CMB) " was concentrated in the centre of the Brazilian capital, canting slogans such as “No more American imperialism” and “Bush out of Iraq”.
On arriving in Argentina, Chavez denounced “the hypocrisy of Bush who now says he's worried about poverty in Latin America. Now he's discovering ... after so many years that there's poverty in Latin America, precisely when the empire is the principal culprit”. Chavez is due to sign a “surprise” accord with his counterpart Nestor Kirchner, according to press indiscretions in the farming sector, in addition to reinforcing the already strong energy cooperation between the two countries. There is a notable absence in Buenos Aires of Bolivian President Evo Morales. Based on the official agenda, Bush and Lula today will visit the petrol-chemical plant of Guarulhos, 40km from Sao Paolo; and later will hold a press conference. [BO]
