    Being punished by the worlds largest trading block is always going to hurt if they do actually decide to do it.

    Esta é a realidade dos governos globais a subsidiar as grandes unidades de monoprodução agricola para desenvolverem através das cultoras agicolas o bio-diesel enquato a humanidade tem necessidade de bens alimentares

    Its about time the EU acted against the dangerous CFK and Argentina as a whole.

    Argentina has continuously threatened the Falklands over decades including an illegal invasion, and more recently stolen Spanish company assets

    The EU is essentially a trading block, same as Merscur and therefore should punish those who seek to hurt members of the union

    The EU should also be looking at sanctions

    Argentina should take their fuel to China, India, Pakistan or all other none EU nation, let the EU pay the highest cost in the world for fuel they can affort it, and I would even slap a tax for all EU imports to Argentina in the long run Argentina will do a lot better without all this hateful bastards. There is a Spanish say 'it is better to be alone then keeping a bad company' if anyone doubts the wisdom in this way of life before talking ignorance read all post above this one.

    I agree, we don't need the hateful and dishonorable Europeans and North Americans, at the very least. Not sure about the Chinese though, but anyway.

    Yes, isolationism is the best way to not be fucked over again by people who want us under their boot.
