Brazil trapped by Argentina and Venezuela economic mismanagements
Brazil’s main financial newspaper Valor Economico revealed that the recent summit between Presidents Cristina Fernandez and Dilma Rousseff from Argentina and Brazil was far from polite and enlightening, rather the contrary with “strong disagreements in the fields of trade and investment” shaking the foundations of Mercosur.

May 20th, 2013 - 08:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As I have said MerSur is dead and will become the Alba South. Brazil and Uruguay better get while the getting is good.

May 20th, 2013 - 08:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Dilma is far from blameless with regard to the lack of international investment in Brasil and the slow down in the economy. She still has the liar Mantega as Finance Minister so how can she expect the credibility of Brasil to be any better than it is.
May 20th, 2013 - 09:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The position of Argentina is worsening by the day because of self-inflicted wounds and Maduro has yet to demonstrate he is anything other than an ex-bus driver and vindictive to boot..
In reality is anyone surprised by this turn of events: I thought it would have come before now.
It was well known that the April meeting was a complete mess ,after all Rousseff left a day early ! And now we add problems with Venezuela. For some time now it was clear that Argentina was going , in a big way , down the Bolivarian road . Did the people know this when they gave the Government such a majority at the last election ?
May 20th, 2013 - 09:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Where is THINK when you want him so he can explain this to us.
May 20th, 2013 - 10:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Trolls are in 'Duck & Cover' mode.
May 20th, 2013 - 10:53 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Last week the trolls hardly posted at all. I would say this might very well be a longer dry spell..........a very long strategy session is in the works here. Think of how hard is my be to defend this.........and try to believe what you are told to believe.
May 20th, 2013 - 11:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0We will just see an increase in new sock puppets.
May 20th, 2013 - 11:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0On top on this news for Argentina, now it is reported that 24% of Argentine families are victims of violent crimes. Where are the trolls today.

In Canada, we are celebrating Queen Victoria's birthday, today.
She ruled over the largest Empire over the world.
Perhaps they're celebrating in reverence to her as well?
@8 Well said.
May 21st, 2013 - 03:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Brazil is the shining hope of LATAM it should disengage from the economic ignoramus,s to south and north.
May 21st, 2013 - 08:50 am - Link - Report abuse 0Doe,s Argentina really expect to get a loan??with their record,they are truly delusional.
This looks like shit stirring by the financial press to me, even if its all true, fine, they'll be bumps along the way, but as even the first paragraph admits, ideological ties remain and national interests remain broadly aligned =)
May 21st, 2013 - 09:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0#15 A lady who wore black for decades to mourn her dead husband, don't know if Elaine would attack her for that!
Troy I think it's become harder and harder to defend. Dilma see's the writing. As Mercosur fades into oblivion as a trade bloc, Dilma sents off on an official trade mission with the USA and soon the EU and even individual countries. It's obvious that Dilma does not want to path to ruin that Venezuela and Argentina has taken, so she acts on her own. Though, she can very easily fall into that same situation.
May 21st, 2013 - 10:05 am - Link - Report abuse 0@18 Actually, yes, I would. She was a silly spoiled brat who almost brought about the end of the monarchy with her silly martyr act. I would call the obsessive mourning and victim act of Queen Victoria a mental illness. Fortunately she wasn't running the country so her petulance didn't really hurt anything but her own family. Have you read any of her letters, BK? Fascinating.
May 21st, 2013 - 11:04 am - Link - Report abuse 0As to the article, you can try to sweep it away but the reality is that CFK's government has shit on its own doorstep and the doorsteps of all its neighbours. Never a good idea. Once the ASBO tenants are gone I am sure the neighbours will welcome the new inhabitants and harmony will resume.
@British_Kirchnerist You can't keep putting on a brave face love remember the old saying “it's like flogging a dead horse” kirchner's well beyond her sell buy date

Looks like the great CUNT of Argentina is after her enemies once again. I wonder if she gave Obama lessons? Only difference is Obama will get impeached for breaking the law.......and she is the Criminal in Chief

#23 “Only difference is Obama will get impeached for breaking the law”
What do you mean - he'd be impeached if he ated the way (you think) Cristina acts, or do you actually expect him to become the first President to be successfully impeached? Don't see much chance of the latter
Dilma is too tied in to the 'Revolutionary Left' of Arg. and Ven..
May 21st, 2013 - 10:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps we will have to wait for a Nevez government to break the red ribbons that bind Brasil into the triumvirate.
They are all sinking at an increasing rate.
