Ahhhhhh, this is why Brazil was so keen to get Venezuela in Mercosur, they must have done a deal and this is the pay off.

Huguito paying the fee......next some big purchase from Argentina and another one from Uruguay.....and ready to go....!!!
It sound as a bribe from the main LA corrupt dictator....Mr. Huguito or Chavito.
Beside the Brazilian aircraft are top quality, the place and time loks like wrong to announce the deal...after cancel the Paraguayan Mercosur membership to allow a forced entry of Venezuela to the club....
We are used to know about that kind of move in that countries.....really. Don´t forget about the USD briefcase some years ago from Huguito to Cristinita.....So, refund payment from her now ?

Expect more of this , high tech engineering products going one way to VZ, and Arg from Brazil. No doubt Hugo will be exporting watermelons the other way. Huge disparity of exports and imports will grow and grow, and then squabbling will start.

Let's see what happens after the “guaranteed” 6 are delivered. Embaer is sucking wind for new sales and the pipline will be burnined in 6 months if they cannot control the ever raising costs combined with new sales. The big world is buying Boeings and Airbus. Embraer's future is bleak and every investor knows that. However, with that being said......great time for short sales in Embraer!! WooHoo
