    She will just bury any court ruling at the in the bottom drawer of the filing cabinet along with the rest of them. Though you never know, sooner or later the financial world is going to wise up to the fact, there is no such thing as business as usual with these people.

    “About one-fourth of global cases handled by the ICSID have been against Argentina.”

    That one single statment speaks volumes...........

    Argentina may also argue that the YPF seizure was in the public interest.

    Please read “We are a corrupt bunch of money-grabbing, tossers who are doing this so we can line our own pockets. To hell with the ”people“ anyway they won't find out until it's too late, suckers!!!”

    I thought Argentina was going to sue all the companies involved in FI oil exploration. We are waiting for the mad woman and the baldy coot to show their faces.

    No guts like all Argies.

    My Queen looking so exquisitely beautiful in the caption =) Whatever the bankers and big business do to try to punish her for her sovereign, public interest decision, those of us who remember who caused the financial crisis will show our solidarity, and I predict none of these theats will come to much in the long run

    BK - more chance of these threats coming to fruition that that apparent legal action against the FI oil expo companies that should have started on 2nd May. Where has that baldy tit gone?

    See Argentina. That's what you do when you've got a legitimate gripe with someone, you take them to court.

    Now you know how it works shall we be seeing you in the ICJ regarding Falklands sovereignty?

    @9 - She looks like a Kardashian put through a trash compactor with a box of legos! What a disgusting, old witch.

    This is what happens when you behave like a 5 year old, KFC. She can bury the case in her desk and scream that it's not happening, BUT IT IS.

    As a politician - in the pure sense of the word - shes nothing without Nestor. She relies on emotional political gestures rather than creating well thought out and applied policies for the medium-long term.

    Her and her team's mismanagement is painful to watch.

    one word sums up the Argentine government....IMPLODING!
    With luck the rest of the country will wise up and kick her and her cronies out.

    Well, she looks like something out of Tim Burton's “A Corpse Bride” or “A Nightmare before Christmas”.

    The thought of British_Kirchnerist “Thrashing it out in the sweaty darkness” over a picture of her makes me feel ill........ unless of course he's into that, in which case... That's just tacky

    And now Argentina have to find somewhere else to get the LPG gas that Repsol have now refused to supply.
