And the second half of the show will consist of clapping sea lions and a trapeze act.

Hang on, what happened to argieland's return to the ICJ? Could it be that an argie lawyer popped and said “We don't stand a chance”. Would that be similar to argie threats of taking companies operating in the Falklands to court? Which court? An argie court? At what point does any argie court have jurisdiction outside argie territory? That only leaves international courts. A few problems there. No doubt why argieland has done NOTHING. Almagro should note this. Except that he's in Timerman's pocket. Doesn't that make him a traitor to Uruguay? Not that Mujica will do anything. He's a cowardly traitor too!

'“Yes, I guess we have been talking for over an hour, on our own” said Almagro'

But we ran out of condoms and had to stop.

I have always thought that Almagro was the rent boy of The Dark Country.

Don't bank on intelligent dialogue between CFK and Mujica. Last time they met it turned into a shouting match.

As part of a brand new, and the worlds first 21st century empire,

So they say ??.

It is too bad having to bend over for a bunch of greaseball, lying, conniving, animal kleptomaniacs.

Actually, didn't Pepe show some backbone by giving the go ahead to the paper mill expansions?

Does rerouting exports away from Montevideo reduce Argentine monthly exports and hard revenues?

I'd be interested if anyone else could expand on your last comment
i.e. “Does rerouting exports away from Montevideo reduce Argentine monthly exports and hard revenues?”

Thanks!

“Does rerouting exports away from Montevideo reduce Argentine monthly exports and hard revenues?”

Yes!

For several reasons.

Shipping schedules are already set. So they will not be instantly able to handle a sudden increase in volume out of BsAS port? Therefore shipments maybe delayed for extended periods due to being 'short shipped'. Such delays may mean breach if contracts and cancellations.

Also if the cost of using BsAs port is higher then it could make an export financially unviable.

So this could impact Argentina's exports.

And in extension, have a deep impact in your sleep, your daily life and the scheduling of your time.

Important matters indeed...
