Brazilian President > Fernando Henrique Cardoso sees a bilateral free trade agreement > between Chile and the United States as a threat to Mercosur, the > South American customs union. Now that Chile is officially > negotiating with Washington - and its neighbors are lobbying for > similar accords - the Brazilian government has good reason to fear > for the future of Mercosur. > > Analysis > > This week's Mercosur summit, in the Brazilian city of > Florianopolis, was supposed to be a triumphant occasion for the > country's president, Fernando Henrique Cardoso. After six months > of negotiations between Mercosur and Chile, Cardoso and the > presidents of Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay were to officially > approve Chile's application for full membership Dec.14-15. > > However, last week's announcement that Chile and the United States > officially have launched negotiations on a bilateral agreement > dashed Brazil's expectations. Instead of celebrating Chile's entry > into Mercosur, Cardoso will struggle this week to convince his > colleagues the organization still has a future. > > Created in 1991, Mercosur has a combined gross domestic product of > nearly $1 trillion and a consumer market of 200 million people. It > consists of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. Chile and > Bolivia have been associate members since 1996 and 1997, > respectively. > > *********** TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE CLICK HERE:*********** > ******** http://www.stratfor.com/home/giu/DAILY.asp#Since ******** > > ___________________________________________________________________ > > > <<<<<<<<<<<<<< SUBSCRIBE TO BECOME A MEMBER TODAY!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > > Stratfor.com introduces new, expanded analysis for readers seeking > more insight on the entire range of global affairs.
