    Although it seemed at the time that the Paraguay-Brasil renegotiation of price for the use of 'surplus' energy by Brasil was wrong, because the price was fixed by an earlier treaty, it is no more and no less tha happened in the UK/EU.
    Margaret Thatcher - who, you will remember, was a British Prime Minister - renegotiated the 'price of entry' that the UK paid to become part of the EEC (EU) club.
    So 'forever deals' are not really.

    Argentina needs the energy and will have to renegotiate the 'forever price'.
