Argentina, Brazil 'working to overcome trade imbalance,' Timerman

Foreign minister Héctor Timerman declared that Argentina and Brazil are "working to overcome the trade imbalance", then confirmed that the newly appointed president of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, will visit Argentina when she finishes her tour of the Persian Gulf countries.

He continued to accept the trade imbalance with Brazil, but considered that, "there is a need to look at the whole picture, looking at Argentina’s surplus in foreign exports in the world".

It is "part of the plan to see how to deal with the problem," and he went on to mention that "it’s got to do with a sum of four million dollars," in Brazil’s favour, which they sustained through "buying from the local market and selling in others".
