Muito agradeço pela gentileza da informação e apresso-me a responder-lhe para manifestar minha viva satisfação pelo êxito logrado por essa República irmã no domínio de importante etapa do ciclo do combustível nuclear.
Sei da intenção exclusivamente pacífica desse esforço argentino, que é a mesma que inspira o Brasil. Nossos países já têm desenvolvido excelente cooperação em matéria nuclear, e estou certo de que assim continuarão a trabalhar em mútuo benefício e em proveito do desenvolvimento econômico e social de toda a comunidade latino-americana.
Ao apresentar a Vossa Excelência meus sinceros votos por sua felicidade pessoal, aproveito a oportunidade para renovar os protestos da mais alta consideração com que subscrevo
