Well that's a relief, I was beginning to think Cristina was back in charge...then again, only the first of two outlays. Let's wait and see how it ends up.

I can't imagine why, since she apparently paid them on time every year. It's Macri who ran out of money and had to go to the IMF, and it's Macri who stiffed this team whose budget is so tiny compared to the enormous debt he's saddled Argentina with.

Well of course she did, they were an intrinsic part of the Malvinas Agitprop show. Compare if you will the hospital in Rio Gallegos Cristina was taken to after imbibing a bit much on Christmas Eve a few years back and, as they say in show business,“breaking a leg.” What wasn't working, who wasn't paid by whom, and who had to go to the other end of the country and why? I leave it to you to research the allusion.

Exactly. It's Macri's fail in every way. But I think this quote explains better why CFK made sure they had funding:

“The Forensic Anthropology Team was born in 1984 as the tool to locate and identify the thousands of disappeared civilians from the last Argentine military dictatorship.”

While this explains Macri's lack of enthusiasm:

“Other current activities in Argentina involve... searching for disappeared persons”
