BUENOS AIRES, 24 Mar. The U.S. president, Barack Obama, has called on the Government of Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner to return the shipment that was seized from a plane of the U.S. Air Force who came to Argentina in February for a special training . This is the first time Obama has referred to this incident that sparked a diplomatic crisis between both nations.
"It's (a matter) seriously in the sense of Argentina has historically been a friend and partner of the United States," he said in an interview with Andres Oppenheimer, a journalist for 'The Miami Herald and a columnist for' The Nation 'of Buenos Aires, published Thursday. The conflict arose last February 10 when an aircraft of the U.S.
Air Force landed at Buenos Aires airport with military equipment and communications equipment for a training course from the Federal Police of Argentina. Depending on the version of Argentina, Customs would have found articles that were not included in the list that Washington delivered to Buenos Aries, so he proceeded to confiscation, which led to unrest in the White House said that all the material carrying had been announced previously.
The Kirchner government gave no credence to these claims and sent a formal protest note to Washington in which he requested "a satisfactory explanation to clarify the presence of undeclared material loading," noting that "some of the material were items used in intelligence operations and / or communications.
" "There is no reason not to return it. And the next time you see President Kirchner, will say: Can we get our equipment?" Said Obama, who has clarified that, although the incident was not passed, "there will be a defining aspect of the relationship between the U.S. and Argentina."
