	Correspondents Report - Brazilian president visits Argentina
		Argentina and Brazil have many striking similarities, but as Brian Byrnes reports from Buenos Aires, they've always turned a cautious eye to one another.

	Online NewsHour: Argentina's "disappeared" -- October 16, 1997
		We're talking there of a state organized during the military regime as a criminal enterprise, and I don't think that long term and strategically is possible simply to turn the page, not only because of a moral imperative but due to the impact that those decisions have a role in the organization of Argentinian society.
		The point is that the President is now caught in a trap that he, himself, set, and he has to move very quickly on judicial and police reform; otherwise, I'm afraid his government will suffer the consequences.
		I would like to say, however, that it is very important to consider that the current situation in Argentina is not today as it was during the military dictatorship but that moment there was a state policy they erected towards extermination of human beings.
