Eduardo Duhalde, Former President of Argentina.

Dr. Duhalde has held several political positions in Argentina, including Governor of Buenos Aires, Vice President and  President of the country. He was the main promoter of the creation of the Union de Naciones Suraméricanas, UNASUR, which is formed by twelve independent countries of South America. Its main goal is to create  integration and unity of cultural, social, economic and political aspects among its members. This organization was created in 2000 under the name Comunidad Sudaméricana and was renamed UNASUR, in 2007.
