Show us the Beef.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 07:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0I do not understand why or how the apathetic and stupid population of Argentina stands for these K lies time and again.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 11:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0There's something seriously wrong with them.
It is about Russia wanting to sell gas to Argentina, not investing. What did she say “ Argentina has an annual 10billion dollars energy deficit” some admission that don't you think? At least she made a truthful statement.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 01:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“... a $10bnUS deficit” - surely she should be framing this in Pesos.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 03:24 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And if she needs the loan or energy , she has to get it from somewhere.
The only options are China and Russia, and the only exporter option is Russia.
This may be just an ordinary business transaction to keep the people's lights on.
The Russians are casting around for any investment they can find since the sanctions.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 03:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They are not going to find them in South America.
Anyone who thinks that Russia is not suffering for their land grabs, is very mistaken. They are losing Billions.
Silly sods, didn't realise that their actions will make Europe elsewhere, it will. It's taught them a hard lesson.
The Ruskies have a little courthouse/petro problem - don't they?

Oct 09th, 2014 - 04:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0This is interesting Rosneft has to pay US$ 13 billion this year and US$ 18 billion next year to service debt. Gazprom is prohibited in raising money in the USA but needs to service debt to the tune of US$ 8 billion this year. Overall Russian firms have to repay US$ 52 billion in the 6 months. They are hardly likely to sell or invest in gas operations in Argentina are they.
Teach them to respect the fucking treaties they sign.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 05:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ukraine was the fourth biggest Nuclear Armed Power and surrendered them all because Russia and the West guaranteed their borders.
You think anyone else is going to fall for it?
Would you?
NATO is the biggest joke on the planet. Well, other than Elvis' sideburns.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 05:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You would think that TMBOA would give this woman tips on looking a bit better when she is 'on stage' as they so touchingly put it.
Oct 09th, 2014 - 05:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh, wait, that would reduce TMBOA's 'attractiveness' perhaps.
I love this little gem:
“Argentina has an annual 10bn dollars energy deficit and it's precisely there where the opportunities are”.....”We want partners to finance projects not only in (the vast shale deposits of) Vaca Muerta, but also in other non conventional resources”, said Ms Giorgi.”
She's not asking Russia to GIVE them the gas is she? I suspect Putin had a BJ from TMBOA on his recent visit but U$D 10 Bn for a BJ, come on, like he probably did. :o)
Oh forgot to mention Russia spent US$ 18.5 billion in the first 7 days of this month propping up the economy. Just as Argentina does.

You know, always bothered me how small they were!
Tis true, Tis true.
We don't want to go back to those days days again.
Yankeeboy: you mention: “I do not understand why or how the stupid and apathetic population of Argentina in Original K stands for lies time and again”: is right: we are stupid and apathetic throughout the last century, because we trust in England and then in US, and everything went very badly for Argentina (mostly because we follow yours advice)
