Apparently Argentina was in much need of oil, because of power shortages, but lacked sufficient funds, and thus accepted a long standing approach from Iran Apparently Argentina was in much need of oil, because of power shortages, but lacked sufficient funds, and thus accepted a long standing approach from Iran

Argentina's judiciary released late Tuesday the complete version of special prosecutor Alberto Nisman's charges against President Cristina Fernandez, foreign minister Hector Timerman and other close officials, accusing them of 'conspiring a cover up of Iran's' alleged involvement in the bombing of the Jewish institution in Buenos Aires back in 1994, which killed 85 and injured 300.

However Nisman apparently points out that there is no direct tape or written evidence of president Cristina Fernandez participation but all Argentines involved in the plot always made reference to 'the chief' (feminine in Spanish), and there 'was no way such parallel diplomacy could take place without instructions and blessings from the Executive,
