So “somebody” killed a journalist and dynamited his body some 26 years ago during an ambush?

Mmm. I bet the current crop of journalists are treading lightly around this guy. Perhaps they would prefer The Shining Path to interview NOT.

I am encouraged by the Pacific Alliance and hugely concerned about Venezuela and the ALBA countries.

Argentine will have to default thus destroying any EU deal and dragging down Brazil etc.
