      "title": "Summit of the Americas II, April 18-19, 1998: Background, Objectives, and Expectations",
      "summary": "President William Clinton will attend Summit of the Americas II in Santiago, Chile, on April\n18-19,\n1998, with 34 democratic Presidents and Prime Ministers from Latin American and Caribbean\ncountries expected to attend. This is a follow up to Summit of the Americas I hosted by President\nClinton in Miami in December 1994. The 1994 Miami Summit created a Plan of Action with 23\ninitiatives in four major areas. Under the leadership of various countries and organizations, these\ninitiatives have been advanced, and major agreements have been concluded and are in the process\nof being implemented. The 1998 Santiago Summit will focus on four major items: (1) promoting\neducation, including programs for children, adults, and disadvantaged groups; (2) strengthening\ndemocracy and human rights, including cooperation against illicit drug trafficking; (3) promoting\neconomic integration, including procedures for negotiation of the Free Trade Agreement of the\nAmericas (FTAA); and (4) eradicating poverty and discrimination, including programs to protect\nwomen and indigenous populations. The United States Congress may be particularly interested in\nplans to launch FTAA negotiations, proposals to strengthen multilateral drug control efforts, and\ncooperation initiatives to promote educational and socioeconomic reforms.\n  CRS products related to this topic include:  Trade and the Americas , CRS Issue Brief IB95017,\nby Raymond J.
