Plato's philosopher Kings in the Schoolyard of Santiago
The Ibero-American summit in Chile was overshadowed by Argentina and Uruguay concerning a long running paper mill dispute. Then it was Venezuela’s president Hugo Chavez, who took the attention. He accused former Prime Minister of Spain Mr. José Aznar to be a fascist. Mr. Hugo Chavez said:
” You are a fascist. Fascists are not human beings – A snake is more human”
The king of Spain Juan Carlos told Venezuelan leader to shut up.
The theme of the summit was social cohesion – There was no cohesion in their performance.
It was 22 nation’s summit in the capital of Chile – It sounded more like cacophony of children in the schoolyard of Santiago.
