Press conference of President Carlos Menem from the Casa Rosada. The journalists ask him: - Mr. President, you have just reiterated that the DEA of the United States is not worried about this issue of the alleged laundering of narco-dollars in Argentina and that is how it was arranged by your spokespersons, if they are concerned is the issue of the street to the Argentine citizenry, is there a big concern in the public opinion because people of the presidential environment are involved in this type of causes? - Mr. President, I would like to ask you three brief details on this subject, first: when Amira Yoma's license ends, second: if you knew and authorized the appointment of Ibrahim al Ibrahim? - The Interior Ministry and also asked about the province of Santa Fe if there would be a possible police intervention? - I respect very much the presidential investiture that you have today, now Mrs. Amira Yoma must move away from her function of agreement or reference as Dr. Duhalde said? -Definished the license, the definitive license or the temporary license? - Given that Argentina has the highest telephone rates in the hemisphere, I think that the privatization of ENTEL was a success? - President, when you spoke recently about Ibrahim and Caserta, you said that they were former officials and not officials of your government, since you assumed this it happened several times that people who were friends or close or officials of your government walked away for different reasons that were of public knowledge and that always said that privileged the reasons of the State to the friendship, now that is as for the after the facts happen, now before I what I wanted to ask is what is the meticulousness or rigor with which they are made those designations, for example, the case of Mr. Ibrahim so that later he has to bring these consequences? -Of everything that has been discussed so far regarding the issue of drug trafficking and the link or alleged linkage with people close to the national government would seem to arise that there is no agreement of opinion between the Vice President of the Nation and the president as the In these days you have expressed that your figure is harmed by the proximity of people who have legal actions, is that so, do you disagree with the vice president? - To you as a seasoned politician that opinion deserves the statements of the deputy Angel Luque and supposedly for the slow public opinion that is expressing the chamber of deputies to respect?
