Key was scheduled to leave tomorrow for Buenos Aires, Argentina, for two days before heading to Lima for Apec. As a result of this morning's earthquake, Key has made the decision to postpone his visit to Argentina. "The situation is still unfolding and we don't yet know the full extent of the damage," Key says. "My officials have conveyed our apologies to the Argentine Government and I intend to call President Mauricio Macri in the next few days," Key said.
