Bolivia, Venezuela Ink
Trade Accords
La Paz - Bolivian and
Venezuelan business
people began on Thursday
in this capital the
signing of contracts
agreed in a recent trade
forum as an alternative
to US obstacles to
exports from the Andean
country.
The state-owned
Venezuelan industrial
supply company (SUVINCA)
and local producers will
make come true their
intentions of
businesses, stated
between November 11-14
in the First Bilateral
Round on Exchange and
Integration.
Participants in the
later event, also held
in La Paz, paved the way
for buying and selling
Bolivian goods, as
clothing, textiles, wood
and jewelry.
According to Jorge
Vidal, in charge of the
Platform of Alternative
Markets of the Promueve
Bolivia (Promote
Bolivia) agency, the
country will sign at
least 20 contracts of
goods purchased by
SUVINCA.
Goals to diversify
export destinations, as
a tool to elude
blackmail and pressures
boosted by the
administration of George
W. Bush, are starting to
bear fruits for the
government of the host
nation.
The White House
confirmed Wednesday
exclusion of the Andean
country from tariff
perks, known as ATPDEA,
under the pretext of
alleged failures in the
struggle against drug
trafficking. For
Bolivian President Evo
Morales, that position
does not tally with the
results achieved by his
nation in fighting that
scourge, highly superior
to those by neighboring
States benefited by the
unilateral mechanism. |
