Twenty after the foundation of Mercosul - the Southern Common Market, the adulthood of this economic and political agreement between Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay was celebrated in loco, where it all began.
Alongside this occasion, the second Meeting of Guarani Nation congregated more than a thousand leaders of this ethnic group, native of Latin America, in Asunción.
Created by the Treaty of Asunción, originally with four countries, this group of nations united for mutual support or joint action, counted on Bolivia and Chile support, later Peru, Colombia and Equador were associated. Finally, in 2006, the awaited join hands with Hugo Chavez, president of Venezuela, happened.
With the main goal of a free trade and the fluid movement of goods, people, and currency, its numbers among the members raised from US$ 4,5 at 1991 to US$ 45 billions at 2010. On the top of these economical numbers, is its important role as a continuing process to the South America integration.
The main aim right now is a single currency , such as it is the Euro in the European continent.
It is true that this moment is the best opportunity with our present and promising governments - owing to being more socialist (besides democratic, of course!). About that, my tip is watching “South of Border”, a wonderful documentary of Oliver Stone.
In conclusion, I will finish by using the same words of Evo Morales in the end of this movie which said periphrastically a Bolivian native head of the past, Tupac katari, who had promissed that one day, he would come back through million of people: “Now it is this time!”.
