As the meeting broke up, the Foreign Minister returned to a subject which he had previously raised twice in the presence of the Secretary, namely, Argentina’s desire to have its interests considered in any future economic discussions involving the European countries, Canada and the U.S. They would like to be an observer at such [Page 619] meetings, if possible.
