The Argentinean diplomat stressed as well the need "to build societies that are more just and equitable, with democracy as a real community of ideas and values for all our peoples." He pledged his "full support to efforts to advance the ideals of peace, democracy, human rights and the quest for more just societies for our peoples."
The Secretary General welcomed the new envoy, observing that Gil's experience "will ensure Argentina's continued leadership role in the OAS, and will help us find collective solutions to the Hemisphere's many and complex problems."
A law graduate of the University of Buenos Aires, Gil also studied political sciences and international relations at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. He managed the international relations area in the campaign of the current President, Eduardo Duhalde.
