The presidents of Uruguay and Argentina have agreed to have a meeting on
Wednesday, 29 March to discuss the pulp mill projects in Uruguay. With the
purpose of contributing to opening a space for dialogue between the republics
of Uruguay and Argentina and answering the requests made by Presidents Tabaré
Vazquez and Nestor Kirchner, Botnia is willing to suspend, during a maximum
period of 90 days, the works of installation of the pulp mill that is being
built in the city of Fray Bentos, Department of Rio Negro in Uruguay. 

The Uruguayan government has informed that in this period of time both
countries will study the environmental impact that the mills could generate in
the region. To facilitate this, the company will give all the information
needed in order to clarify the doubts that might exist and to ensure the
correct conditions of operation and control of the pulp mills.
