Argentine President Fernando de la Rua on Sunday expressed full support for the U.S.-led military strikes against the Taliban in Afghanistan, official sources said.
The Argentine leader made the gesture of solidarity with Washington in a phone call with U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, who had notified him just as the attacks were to begin, Argentine presidency spokesman Juan Pablo Baylac said.
Offering Argentina's "total support and aid," De la Rua asked Powell to tell U.S. President George W. Bush that "we are with himand support the actions that have been taken," the spokesman said.
