 Asociación Latinoamericana de Integración - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Asociación Latinoamericana de Integración (the Latin American Integration Association; known as ALADI or, occasionally, by the English acronym LAIA) is a Latin American trade integration association, based in Montevideo.
In addition, ALADI is also open to all Latin American countries through agreements with other countries and integration areas of the continent, as well as to other developing countries or their respective integration areas outside Latin America.
As the institutional and normative "umbrella" of regional integration that shelters these agreements as well as the subregional ones (Andean Community, MERCOSUR, G-3 Free Trade Agreement, etc.) it is the aim of the Association to support and favour every effort in order to create a common economic area.

 Trade: Cuba's admission to ALADI boosts ties with region
The aim of Aladi, which is based in the Uruguayan capital, is to create gradually a Latin American common market, and to this end, it facilitates negotiations on regional tariff accords and other aspects of trade.
In the wake of the disappearance of the East European socialist bloc and the break-up of the Soviet Union, Cuba was forced to turn elsewhere for partners, and trade with Latin America and the Caribbean rose sharply.
Cuba's admission to Aladi also shows that integration between countries with different economic and social systems is possible, without affecting national affairs, she added.

 Periodic Note: ALADI
The treaty is a flexible instrument that enables easy access for countries wishing to join and also allows a wide range of agreements to be concluded between members and between members and nonmembers in the region, without concessions to the other partners of the Association.
In its early years, ALADI concentrated on renegotiating the 20,000 concessions previously agreed to under LAFTA, two thirds of them multilateral in nature and the rest of them advantages granted to the relatively less developed members that could not be extended to other countries.
In 1994 the total foreign trade of the ALADI countries grew significantly from the preceding year: 16 percent for exports and 19 percent for imports.

 Latin America and Caribbean integration schemes in the face of the international crisis - II
ALADI represents a realistic and pragmatic step towards regional integration, since it allowed headway to be made in the field of trade liberalization, with all due caution for the regional backdrop of crisis and change as far trade liberalization was concerned.
The 1980 Montevideo Treaty, with its principles of pluralism, flexibility and convergence, has enabled the member countries to develop their integration strategies, according to their national priorities and ALADI's regulations, whose flexibility paved the way to agreements with other countries of Latin America that are not member countries of ALADI, and also with developed countries.
In effect, when the only improvement to it was made in June 1990, this was limited to Argentina, Brazil and Mexico granting a 34% preference to the relatively less developed countries, and these in turn were bound to a preference of 12%.

The admission of Cuba to the ALADI has great importance and aims at improving one of the main objectives of our foreign policy: the economic integration to the Latin American and to the Caribbean region.
One of the commitments undertaken by Cuba with its entrance to the Association, is its incorporation to the ALADI Integral System of Information, meaning that we must frequently supply economic information and of foreign trade to that organism, which will be increased by several state organisms.
This system will be useful to the Cuban entrepreneurial community, because they would have access to information on commercial flows among the countries of the ALADI and of them with other regions.
