Ahern urges democracy and human rights

Taoiseach Bertie Ahern will today emphasise the importance of democracy and human rights to heads of state at the fourth EU-Latin America/Caribbean Summit in Vienna.

The previous EU-LAC Summit in Guadalajara, Mexico, in 2004 was a key event during Ireland’s EU presidency and was co-chaired by the Taoiseach and President Vicente Fox Quesada of Mexico.
