US Secretary of State John Kerry will be arriving in the country tonight for a brief but intense 24-hour visit. During the afternoon, Kerry will make his way to the Foreign Ministry to meet Macri and Foreign Minister Susana Malcorra. Two years later, Kerry made his way to the Senate where he worked for 28 years. According to La Nación, however, it is not expected Kerry will make significant announcements considering he is part of an administration on its way out. According to La Nación, Kerry is here for three main reasons: Reinforce diplomatic ties between Argentina and the US; continue developing the countries’ new bilateral agenda begun with US President Barack Obama’s state visit in March; and fine-tune previous agreements on combating drug trafficking.
