text: amount. Brazil alone has paid 91.5 billion dollars between 1980 and 1988. Nonetheless, largely due to exorbitant interest rates fixed by economic trends in the industrialized world, the debt has increased by 60.9 billion dollars in the same period. Also it is already widely accepted that this debt is realistically unpayable. The overall solution is not simply economic but political, and as such should be considered by governments of all countries involved. To effectively stand before the cartel of creditors, debtors must design and pursue a common strategy. This is particularly urgent in the case of Latin America. Up to now, debtor countries have chosen to negotiate one by one with creditors and the US government, damaging the overall interests of the region and increasing the individual vulnerability of each. The indiscriminate liberalization promoted by industrialized countries, assumes that we are all equal partners when it is well known that huge economic, political and social differences exist amonq world countries. Equal treatment to unequal partners leads to the deepening of inequalities. Economic integration in trade blocks configured by industrialized countries is not fatal and inevitable. Latin American Integration is not under any conditions a lost cause. It is a strategy consciously abandoned by our governments who accept passively a bilateral relations with industrialized countries. Courage and political vision is needed to rescue Latin American integration as a viable objective of our peoples. In the construction of a new system of international relations, the developed world has a special responsibility to break with the past. We draw attention to the multifaceted ways in which the Group of Seven governments have combined military, economy, political and diplomatic aggression to attack democratic achievements and organizations around the world. Such intervention as Low Intensity Warfare must be condemned and abandoned as public policy.
