Sep 30th, 2014 - 11:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If the Peso free-falls the problem will remain the same
Unless the Chinese are prepared to write off huge amounts of trade losses for political gains, of course...
China doesn't know what to do with all the SOY they currently have stockpiled. They paid too much for it so they can't sell it. Gosh knows losing money is frowned upon in China.
Oct 01st, 2014 - 12:37 am - Link - Report abuse 0So what in the world are they going to buy from Argentina to “trade”?
Or is this going to be 1 way trade until the U$600 line of credit is used up?
yeah probably
I also think its funny they say the Yuan is growning in use and is UP TO 1.6% of all International Trade. Pretty small.
Does anyone use the Swiss Franc for trade?
We thinks that CFK has something China wants,

now of course one cannot speculate but an open door, wont be to far out..
I thought CFK's protectionist policies to protect local manufacturing were restricting imports.........so is she now making an exception to Chinese goods? It'll be interesting to see how industria argentina reacts to this.
Oct 01st, 2014 - 12:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0Taking everything written in the article into account, why can't argie importers pay in argie pesos? Why do they have to buy Chinese yuan first? Could it be that China makes more money out of selling yuan first? Hang on, Kickitoff is a Marxist. Is there a connection?
Oct 01st, 2014 - 09:48 am - Link - Report abuse 0It seems easy to understand, after all: The U.S. forced a second default on us. Then, Westinghouse is no longer an option for building our fourth nuclear central. The Chinese contract has already been signed. ROSATOM, probably, will be the candidate for the fifth. China and Russia will become our new partners. That will be the price for the protection of the vultures´ greed against the interest of 93% of our bondholders. And it´s only the beginning. We have got, in a pretty short time, that our special feud with the vultures has transformed in a world issue, and that our position has been adopted by a substantial majority of United Nations members. A result not probably foreseen for that self-propelled mummy known as Mr. Justice Griesa, his vulture masters, and perhaps even the State Department. South American reptilian cipays have been granted the pleasure of watching their respective governments backing Argentina with their votes; as it has been done by most of LATAM.

Oct 01st, 2014 - 11:08 am - Link - Report abuse 0Ah well that settles it then, problem over,
its the American fault, and the china and Russia will come to and defend the integrity of Argentina,
simple is it not...?
Nobody can seem to tell me what China is going to buy from Argentina. I get Argentina needs a lot of stuff from China, China gave them a line of credit with a big interest rate attached so they're getting profit from the exports plus interest but what is Argentina selling them?
Oct 01st, 2014 - 12:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unprofitable Soy?
Can they not see what's happened to Venezuela with these deals of last resort with China? Venezuela owes China 25 years of most of their oil production. How's that sustainable?
Silly Marxists.
They don't care if the population is poor as long as the leaders are rich and isolated.
They never learn.
Don't take the parochial view.
Oct 01st, 2014 - 12:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0China wants a strategic Antarctic and the waters in the Region; that includes the Southern America access. China thinks in Decades, not just for now.
10. I have never understood why people think the Chinese are brilliant strategists. They are merely the buyer of last resort. They'll be lucky to be whole in a decade once the mass civil unrest moves to the East Coast they're done.

All those “Beuarocrats” you parade for supporting you, they are not the world. Most of their own people don't even know who the ferk they are and cares even ferkin less. They care what's happening around them, not you and why should they? What made you special?
Here's what the rest of the world think outside of Argentina. A “Vulture fund” is a charity collecting money for an endangered African Bird!!!!

Yes, methinks you´re right on this advice. But have you ever think on the FINAL RESULT of the INTEGRATION , in time and space, of the myriad “parochial views” that U.S. foreign police blunders have engendererd around the whole world, at least since the end of W.W.II...? In China, Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, Middle East, Irak, Iran, Afghanistan...? Most certainly, it´s not a “parochial” one. Only the totalitarian old Marxist regimes´s brutalities plus their utter ineptitude counter-balanced it.
Rumour has it, that sooner or later the riches , wealth of minerals possibly oil, and thousands of miles of empty territory in Antarctica may well some up for grabs in the next couple of decades, as the world lumbers closer to exhausting their own minerals and other such items,
Oct 01st, 2014 - 06:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Thus being, out of the worlds powers, Great Britain at this moment is the only nation that has a land based permanently, sited military base, for all 3 services,
[you work it out ]
I can name 5 other military powers that do not have these facilities down their,
And when weak powers are hovered up the heavy mob,
Will come south, by hook or crook those who have the power will overcome those who do not,
A contract today, a deal tomorrow may well lead to your future demised country,
Choose wisely Argentina – China could well be the devil in disguise

It seems the Russians are determined to corner the world market for reactors and even the UK Government have been seduced.

Just watch what happens when people start dying. The government will blame the US.

Ha, ha, ha, and to think at one time I thought you were just a god delusionist, now I realise you are deluded per se.
Ok we'll pretend it was fraudulent for sake of argument(Argentina took the loans by defrauding the lenders). Give the principle back interest free and call it even........100ish billion....no interest. That would be fair.......being fraudulent ....right?
Oct 03rd, 2014 - 09:30 am - Link - Report abuse 0It seems some argies don't like some of us bashing Argentina,
