    “China absorbs almost 70% of Argentina’s soy-oil production, the world’s leading exporter.”

    Laugh, Laugh, WRONG! Argentina is third but but but, China is the world's leading IMPORTER of soy-oil. There you go again, a nation that can't compete comes up with silly tricks that eventually will get caught and loose..LAUGH..

    This is SUCH a GOOD move by the Argentines. First they slap restrictive measures on their main trading partner (China) that results in China banning soy-oil imports, then more restrictive measures on trade with Brazil that they deny exist. Then the Botox Queen trots off to try to soothe all the ruffled feathers. No sooner is she home, than the Argentines do it again!!
    They must have an economic death wish!! I do hope so.

    Seems to me this is heading for “bread and circuses” time again, as in 1982!
    Who this time though?
    Who's ass is going to be kicked by the bully-boy?
    Stupid, stupid, STUPID!
    This is going the same way as the oil agreement they tore up
    They just DONT learn!!

    Argentina still keeps pushing, and its people just keep following like sheep,
    i think all this pushing, is to cover up there governments corruption, they want a war,, any war, it does not matter, as long as it distracts the people from what is really going on, you can never ever trust Argentina, even the stupid Brazilians admitted the other day, they supported Argentina against the British, and this is how they treat her, she just cant be trusted, but the next war may not be between Argentina and the brits, the other south American countries may yet beat us to it, if they keep pushing, its south America that will put Argentina in its place,, and good rid dens

    Free trade at it's best,
    “India top buyer of Argentine soy oil on Chinese spat
    Thursday July 15 2010
    India will continue to increase purchases of Argentine soyoil this year, helping the South American country fill a gap left by a Chinese boycott, the Indian ambassador to Buenos Aires, Rengaraj Viswanathan, said this week.
    Argentina is the world's biggest supplier of soybean oil, but exporters have been forced to look for new markets after top buyer China halted imports earlier this year.”

    It's a small world we live in, as I recall Brazil filled the gap in China.

    “Soybean Exports From Brazil May Rise to Record This Year on Chinese Demand.”
    maybe China and Brazil suffer from selective amnesia.

    That's why it's a free world #6,
    or did you think that a big country like China or Brazil can nowdays dictate where a group is going to trade ? human survival is an instict not a choice, and as you can see by this report that if it's illegal Argentina doesn't want nothing to do with it, Argentina is doing good by trying to shake off corrupt and/or bias alliances, you can only champion trust if you live by example, and we all know that no country in the world is doing that, right now!.
    Exellent times are coming for the countries that hold most of the food supply, not even a bully can argue that.

    Correct, down under where it belongs.

    tChe (Portuguese) Idiot Avargas2001 doesn't understand that free trade isn't free. Second, Since Argentina depend on exports to Brazil, retaliation from them, will break your silly nation budget. Third, Silly Protectionist nations who tax their exporters and block importers (products that argies need) don't survive long compare to Open market oriented. Don't cry from Argentina, you're neighbors are getting stronger with the day, while your nation is falling apart..LAUGH

    #9 we don't want the fakland or the illegal aliens with it, as a matter of fact we isolated that pesty group of illegal aliens, and than they cryed to the world community for the blockade, what is it with brits no size sudes them, or could it be they are just war mongers who like being abused ? I doubt it, maybe they just don't know they have the rights to go back home to UK.

    @15. Let's get this straight. You don't want the Falklands. That's good! “they cryed to the world community for the blockade”. They (the Islanders) asked for the blockade? So you admit there is a blockade. Another good point! And the reason that they (the Falkland Islanders) asked for the blockade would be......? I'm sure the Falkland Islanders know what their rights are. The problem is that Argentina doesn't know what they are. And knows little about its own “rights” either!!

    yes #16 we have blockaded Islas Malvinas because there are a lot of pirats in the ocean drilling for oil attempting to pollute the last piece of clean ocean, and maybe the last breeding ground for healthy fish, we are doing something, not even USA did for the fishermen in USA, who have lived for thousands of years from this ecosystem, a job that was here long before the oil was. by the way people run on food like fish only cars run on oil. Argentina needs to give no reason for our internal affairs, as PM of UK said we have nothing to discuse our soveraignity is not negotiable, beside the illegal aliens have accepted that they are from UK not Argentina they should stop making troubles and go home, and yes we Argentine's know that we are the people to tell brits to go home and stop pesting !

    the only pirates are you lot of immigrants, you sneaked in with the Spanish, and never went home, you killed and robbed all the natural inhabitants, and have the cheek to call us pirates, as for Malvinas,
    its just a figment of your interjector imagination. lol

    Yep, so you also should say that to your son US, and to any country of America, Europa, etc.
    But the truth is you are a pirate, you rob for the Queen and for that little island, you like to steal, killing and invade territories, like you did in Malvinas, stealing Argentina's territory and removing the argentine people living there by force, and also violating many treaties, violating the international laws as you always loved to do. The fact is you did it, steal other country's territory, and you didn't care and will never care, cause you really think is normal, cause at the end the truth is you are a pirate, until today, in the XXI century.
    Everybody, and every country around in the earth, knows this, and know you are little pirate island, so please go home, nobody wants you here in Latin america. And is not my imagination. lol

    Argentino idiot. We the United States of America aren't the son of the British bitch. Long long long time ago, we threw them out because we wanted that. The Falklanders want something else, they choose (and still are) to be the son of the bitch (the queen of the UK)..it's their choice and you aught to respect that, because it's not your territory and never was (and will).

    “ Long long long time ago, we threw them out ”. Whilst Britain's attention was on something more important. Like defeating Napoleon. Otherwise your forefathers would have been stamped on.

    ” the son of the bitch (the queen of the UK)”. Now that's not nice, you turd from a pig. I suggest you apologise. After all, living in a country with a useless, lame duck half-caste leader leaves little room for pointing a finger.

    ]and he is not even American, he hates what he calls imperialist, then replaces Britain with Americanism, he condemns what he thinks was the British treating the terrorist badly, then lets, the Americans do the same thing in Iraq and afghan,, before you yanks start slagging of your ONLY allies, please show more respect, most of the world would not lift a finger to help the yanks if you were on fire, at least the British would lend you a fire extinguisher [and wouldn’t charge you]
    So show some respect please, thank you.

    Nicholas: “it's their choice and you aught to respect that...”

    Wrong, and more respect please. First, your are UK's son, and for the same reason your country supported the english invasion in Malvinas, violating the decolonization treaty that your stupid government signed before in the OEA.
    Second, the british people living in Malvinas, they are usurpers, the can't choose about something never belonged to them, pointless to ask the usurper if wanna keep which was torn.
    And finally, if you support them now is cause you still are a son of that bitch you called UK.

    Regards.

    the british may not be perfect, but they are without doubt the best,
    when J.R.Hartly, stopped of in the falklands in 1066, he should have laid claim then, insted he came home to help harold, but either way the falklands have always been british.

    harrier61 and briton idiot...

    I don't need to apologize for your bitch (your queen). I'm an American, (born in Florida, and if that isn't part of the US according to you, that I suggest you go back to school) and I have a president for who I didn't even voted for...your queen doesn't mean a shit for me. Second, we americans only support you clowns because you simply do what we ask or tell you to do...you are our allies..that's it...okay in the media we say friends, whatever. Third, My country was a colony of England, and were defeated by brave americans. Without us, the UK is nothing. And Argentino idiot...my government supported the UK for political reasons, if you really believe that they deeply care about the UK because of the past (ohh they were our mother land bla bla bla), then you're freaking wrong. I'm a American, Registered Republican, I respect the Brits, but when it comes to their queen..yes their queen, not mine, I care less if the brits get angry if I call her a bitch..an old bitch.
