The political reorganization of Haiti and the war on terrorism should be part of the agenda of the 15th Ibero-American Summit, which is being held in Salamanca, Spain.
Efforts to combat hunger, the need for national development financing, and compliance with the Development Goals of the Millennium are the chief items among the 26 topics expected to be covered in the Final Declaration of the meeting.
The Summit is being attended by heads of State and government from Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Venezuela, Colombia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Honduras, Portugal, and Andorra, in addition to the host country, Spain. The meeting ends Saturday, October 15.
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will participate in three thematic groups at the meeting. He will lead the debate on the international influence of the Ibero-American community, according to information from the Planalto Palace. The other two sessions will be devoted to migration and the economic and social situation of the community.
While in Spain, president Lula is also expected to discuss the plight of Brazilians who live in that country. Around 30 thousand are there illegally. Brazil also wants to make it less expensive for Brazilians who live in Spain to transfer funds to their families. The two countries also intend to intensify cultural exchanges.
