Bolivian gas dispute
The two leaders see the joint nuclear project as a way to increase energy supply while raising their profile on the international stage, says the BBC's Americas editor Warren Bull.But while energy issues dominated the first of two days of talks, the two presidents did not refer directly to a dispute over the ratio of Bolivian gas supplied to the two countries.La Paz currently prioritizes its exports to Brazil, its biggest client, which imports 30 million cubic metres of Bolivian natural gas per day.Argentina imports a maximum of 7.7 million cubic metres per day from Bolivia, and would like a bigger share.There are fears it could suffer from acute energy shortages during the southern hemisphere's winter months ahead.It is hoped the issue will be resolved during a joint meeting with Bolivian President Evo Morales on Saturday.
