The long-running conflict between Uruguay and Argentina regarding the building of two paper mills has reached the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Hearings are due to start today, Thursday, to determine whether Uruguay has violated bilateral treaties, as Argentina claims. Argentina has accused its neighbor of giving the go-ahead to the $1.7 billion project – which represents the largest single foreign investment ever - without sufficient consultation regarding the environmental impact on the Uruguay river, which separates the two countries.
