1. Wow. Thank goodness President Fernandez and his administration have found a way to deal with this.

It is still a nightmare thinking of what absolute destruction Macri would have brought had he lasted one more month in power.

He left the economy in shreds, compared to what it was when he arrived. Monstrous.

This clean-cut Economy Minister seems very capable, doesn't he? He looks much more open, direct, and honest than anyone who worked for Argentina under Macri's direction.

The last paragraph of the posted article is amazing. What greed and deceit Macri represented!

Argentina still faces IMF payments of over $18 billion annually in 2022 and 2023, besides other foreign debt service of over $10 billion a year - mostly dating from former President Mauricio Macri's 2015-19 tenure, when massive foreign debts were taken on largely to finance the dollarization and offshoring of private assets.
