Let's hope the sticking points ( IPR, protocols, etc) have been worked-up in the meantime, and that Argentina re-enters negotiations in the right frame of mind
- this thing is just too big and profitable for small players like Ireland and Argentina to screw it up.

“Except from the demented Irish.”

The Germans want this deal. They already threw the Irish under the bus (Ireland is toasted). Only the French can stop it.
