Menem forswears a third term, for 1999 anyway

Article Abstract:

Argentine president, Carlos Menem, has decided against running for a third term. He had received the backing of a special congress of his Justicialist party, but the congress was boycotted by those who supported Eduardo Duhalde, the main rival of Menem. Duhalde, Buenos Aires province governor, planned an unofficial referendum which would have shown that Menem lacked popular support. Menem may support Duhalde as candidate for the presidencyin exchange for support in retaining leaderhsip of the Justicialist party.
