Why Argentina Balked

Artucio, Hugo Fernandez | January 30, 1942 issue

The beautiful ideal of continental solidarity has been torn to shreds at the conference at Rio de Janeiro to the open satisfaction of the Axis powers. This sinister task has been performed by Ruiz Guinazu, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Argentina, fervent admirer of the Franco regime in Spain and public prophet of a totalitarian victory in the present war. Reports from the Brazilian capital clearly indicate that the Argentine government will stubbornly adhere to the dictum laid down by the president of the delegation just before the conference began. Argentina would oppose any interpretation of continental solidarity that might entail going to war against the Axis.
