Not sure how you & buds see things.
"They"....... did not announce anything, Armati was unaware of the barcelona declaration and thought it was "neat".
Ram brought it to Armatis attention, pretty simple really....nutin too tin foil in there. But, ok.
and YUP, you are correct, it is a public document, very astute of you to notice.
As for "dark secret" dark maybe, but hasnt been a secret, as in, has been public since 1982.
(Barcelona Declaration 1995)
"as basic as working towards prosperity by the building of a free-trade zone"
That is an opinion, and aside from "free trade zone" is far from fact.
Actually, its also far from "free" trade.
This opinion is really naive.(no offence, just what it is)
In about 1980-85, free trade with the states was a big deal topic in canada.
I happened to own businesses at that time.import,export,distribution,wholesale retail and publishing.
I could bring ANYTHING I wanted in from the states and I could send ANYTHING I wanted to the states, in other words, we already had "free trade".
So, what was the "free trade" agreement about?
I already know full well, Im asking you if you know.
Its the same thing in the mediterranean.
The answer as to what it is about is right under your nose, just need to look.
Are you referring to yourself in the third person here, Armati? I had a lot of fun reading that in a pro-Wrestler call out voice. Dukasaur will meet you at SummerSlam.
