Day 10 in Argentina 07/29/08
Today's highlight was a trip to the U.S. Embassy. Professor Pasqualucci arranged for the embassy staff to speak to us. Once again, no cameras were permitted, but we did learn a lot about U.S. commerce in Argentina. After that, we had a tour of an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) called Unidos por la Justicia. Ben, a student at Tulsa, did an internship over the summer at Unidos, so we got to speak with Judge Santiago Otamendi, the Director of International Relations for the organization, and Martin Gershanik, the Executive Director. They talked about the Argentine judicial system and the challenges facing it. Since I couldn't bring my camera to the embassy, I have no pictures. :-(
