Mapuche confront U.S. oil and gas companies in Argentina

…Several Mapuche have surrounded a gas deposit…belonging to Apache, blocking gas from getting out to the local region…[and] Chile...'We will not move until Apache begins some steps to implement the remediation plan that Pioneer agreed upon before they left [in 2006],'' said Maliqueo Velasquez...The Mapuche also want immediate restitution of lands…and the ability to administer their own territory and natural resources... ''In light of the pending litigation, we don't have any comment at this time,'' wrote...[the] director of Public and International Affairs for Apache Corporation...Pioneer Natural Resources also said their company had no comment on the court decision.
