“Change is possible, thanks for believing”, president elect Macri´s first words
“Change is possible, thanks so much for having believed”, were the first words of Argentine president-elect Mauricio Macri when he appeared on stage at his packed headquarters in Buenos Aires, Sunday evening. Visibly emotional and euphoric, Macri said “it is a historic day for Argentina, a change of times. A change that will guide us to the future”. Read full article

Best wishes everyone.
Historically other countries have slapped off Argentina's attempts at cooperation.

Nov 23rd, 2015 - 02:09 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What are you going to do now ? It seems that Macri wishes to join the outside world and take Argentina with him.
I'm sorry what does that mean? I want to do nothing.
Nov 23rd, 2015 - 02:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I just fear that history will repeat itself and see Argentina's hand cut off when extended out.
More rottingroadkillian victimology.

Did we just retroll?
@2,4. If Macri takes your view, you're going to die. Here are some tips. Expunge the “Malvinas Myth”. There isn't a single word of truth in it. Formally recognise that there is a budding nation on your doorstep and your obligation under the UN Charter is to accept it as you would the middle of Buenos Aires. Quit lying. That includes YOU. The WORLD has operational systems. Argieland can't change them. It's too small and insignificant. Pay your debts. It's only about US$20 billion. If you quit trying to support the worthless, e.g. unemployed, students, faggots, kinks, recidivists, thieves and other criminals, xenophobes, billions could be saved. Don't forget to sack most of the police forces and replace them with indigenous people who understand the law. Try to remember that you are “occupiers” with little “right” to be where you are. If the United Nations Organisation was forced to be honest and the “important” world powers acted, you'd be floating around the Atlantic wondering where to go. When you extend that “hand” remember to give instead of trying to steal.

May be a more accurate statement?

has now changed to a pathetic, “ please don't hurt us when we ask for help :-(”
He's an attention-sucking drama queen - ignore him
Poor Macri is in for an unpleasant term as a president: All the peronistas are going to do what they can to sabotage Argentina's future.
Nov 23rd, 2015 - 11:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They have done it several times before and will do it again - better to destroy the country than admit that peronist rule (and especially the Kirchnerist variant) has been disastrous.
Excuse everyone, but I fail to comprehend what is happening.
Nov 24th, 2015 - 05:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0I am here to share my long held views on the efficacy of a fully liberalized market system. Which unfortunately the rest of the world fails to live up to.
So in the end Argentina may invite friendship, but all it will get from protectionist outsiders is feet-dragging (on agriculture, on subsidies, on European illegitimate claims to Antarctica, etc). If not outright deceit.
The Invisible Hand must be let work, and punish those that don't work.

Unfortunately, I think you are quite right.
@11 NOSTRILS
The Invisible Hand... of Allah?
The only foot dragging is Argentina preventing Mercosur and Brazil , Uruguay, Paraguay from signing FTA
There must be fully liberalized free duty in order for FTA to work. Europe has been dragging its feet since it only wants the products where they have competitive advantages to be tariff-free, but MERCOSUR products that have competitive advantage to be tarriffed or outright banned under various pretexts.
Nov 24th, 2015 - 05:28 am - Link - Report abuse 0Until the Invisible Hand is let work, Europe will continue on it's current sordid trajectory.
Argentina can live without Europe, the question is can Europe now live without Argentina.

Hi NOSTRILS
Nostril, Toby, TTT or whatever you are calling yourself this week. Everyone knows that Antarctica all belongs to Britain, Oz and New Zealand. Just look at the names of places, the Ross Sea, Queen Elizabeth Land etc. Read your history.

As to Antarctica are there NO limits to your country's colonialist expansionism.
Wait... so then California, Florida, Texas, Nuevo Mexico, Nevada...

One of the 'posters' was jumping on the bandwagon, calling out the Royal Family as pedophiles etc. etc. ...
His name was. “ Tobi Gelando”
Probably one and the same. I read various media outlets and some of the names are near identical and the writing is the same as many here.
