Disclaimer & comment rulesSo Argentina is going to pay for products bought from Brazilian companies with toilet paper.
May 02nd, 2023 - 12:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I am not sure that the companies will be happy about that.
I would recommend that the companies work on the old system, still used by many online sellers. “Cash up front”.
Can’t see anybody accepting payment in Argy Pesos, not going to happen.
May 02nd, 2023 - 01:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Like the man says ‘alternative means of payment, such as swap, or giving credit to the exporter,’
Only way to go, basically running up a different credit card.

May 02nd, 2023 - 04:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The dire situation of the Argentine people has become completely impossible.
One of my friends there report the food prices are untenable with no hope of resolve.
Although I'm sincerely sympathetic, Argentines themselves have created their own economic suicide.
¡Saludos!
“...paid directly in pesos to Brazilian companies, which will then convert those pesos into reais.”

- As to your local Argie FRIEND reporting to you that the food prices are untenable with no hope of resolve....
- Allow me to remind you that statistically and socially it is almost impossible for YOU to have a FRIEND that ain't into the top decile of our societies...
- People at that level do not even Tænk about el precio de las papas..., hermanito...
At most they may comment to their FRIENDS about the untenable price of Philipponnat...

Thankfully we here in Chile have had an excellent export season.
I pity your poor country as the “trade agreement” reminds me of a Ponzi scheme...
Best of luck!

May 02nd, 2023 - 10:54 pm - Link - Report abuse -1Indeed..., you thankfully there in Chile have had an excellent export season..., to CHINA...
Without the above “Trade Agreement” Brasil would lose some 1,500 million export U$S to Argentina..., who would be forced to buy from the one exporter already giving us that deal...: CHINA...
Let's hope your Anglo friends don't fuck up with CHINA...
Consequences for us, Sudacas would be..., in the best of cases..., hundredfold worse than those die arme Deutschen are now paying after the Anglo blowing of the Nordstream gasoducts...
In the worst of case?.., siamo tutti finiti...

I spoke with and Argentinian friend of mine today, living in BA, definitely not one of the top decile, however works for a company ‘overseas’ and is paid in Dollars (US), so he is surviving quite well, otherwise the situation is dire.
His que to leave will be, if and when, they start delaying Passport renewals (not a problem to him) and seizing accounts with Dollars (US).
Whoever the next Government is after the election, it is going to be a ‘Crock of Shit’.

Philipponnat, Squashed Duck, a la roadkill.
à la guillotine avec l'Aristo.
Meanwhile Argentina goes to the Dogs and Puelmapu burns!!!

And last time I checked it was ‘die deutsche arme’, âne!!!

Frankly it's very sad that your country is in this situation, but it's self inflicted...
Obviously the current idiot US President is playing with nuclear war...

I say...:
- You may personally do..., but our Shile Querido..., with ~40% of its exports going to CHINA and a ~75% - 25% positive foreign trade balance with CHINA..., can hardly be considered “a zero sum loss”...
Don't be so megalomaniac..., hermanito...!
You are not French..., you are just married to one... ;-)

May 03rd, 2023 - 02:58 pm - Link - Report abuse +1With kind respect, instead of debating the fine aspects of German language - perhaps you can explain the outrageous criminal damage being to the entire Argentine economy?
Who are the evil characters involved?
We both know the sad truth...
Well..., my Shilean Brüderchen...

There ain't nothing “To Explain”..., right...?
But don''t ya worry..., I do catch your drift...
- Ya' don't want to embarrass your Monolingual Brainwashed Anglo Turnip Compadre with your superior mastering of the German language..., huhhhhhhh...
Chuckle..., chuckle...
No, it’s just your ‘bad accent’ in German, typical Dane talking with a ‘hot potato in your mouth’ just as the Swedish said.
