Jul 29th, 2023 - 04:01 pm - Link - Report abuse +2I completely agree with you. Argentines need a way to pay their debts - which seems very impossible today.
Sovereignty of the Falklands was determined in war with blood and treasure.
¡Saludos!
Who is trying to buy sovereignty Brasileiro,? very strange statement indeed,

Jul 29th, 2023 - 09:09 pm - Link - Report abuse -1I hope not, but it's good to be aware of the terms of the contract. Westerners are not very reliable. In addition, there is an open interest of the Empire in keeping South America underdeveloped and submissive so that they can easily steal our natural wealth.
Then South America should pick itself up from their bootstraps and develop its own natural wealth and develop their own resources and quit whining about others.

Argentina is globally renowned for not honoring the terms of their debt agreements.
Jul 30th, 2023 - 07:50 am - Link - Report abuse +1In this case, they need new terms because they cannot keep to the old terms that they agreed to.
So, looking at the above, and with my fine Russian education, I conclude Argentina is fine and it is their western bankers who are the unreliable ones.
No, I am not on drugs.
Then don't rely on Western bankers! Figure it out with your own (meager) resources.
Jul 30th, 2023 - 07:56 am - Link - Report abuse +2Simples!!!
Brazil doesn't need Westerners for anything. We pay for everything we care, nothing comes for free. We have a trade surplus with almost every country in the world, including China.
Jul 30th, 2023 - 01:27 pm - Link - Report abuse -3And as the leading nation of South America, we have a duty to share our bitter experiences with our South American brothers. IMF is one of these.
What bitter experiences Brasileiro ?, you do not want to trade with the western democracies , but are happy to trade with evil dictators and communists and banana republics, you have very strange ideas indeed,
Jul 30th, 2023 - 01:33 pm - Link - Report abuse +1As for the IMF, in the 1990s we needed to borrow money from them. Until we completed full payment we were forced to follow fiscal and monetary policies that needlessly hurt our people. We had our public policies subordinated to the colonialism and arrogance of the Westerners.
Jul 30th, 2023 - 01:58 pm - Link - Report abuse -3In 2003, our President Lula settled the debt with the IMF and de-dollarized our foreign debt, transforming the debt into our own currency.
We don't want our brothers to suffer what we did.
Regarding the democratic question, I see that the Westerners take advantage of the circumstances to, case by case, judge and rob entire countries. They are allies of the Saudi Arabian dictatorship and steal Venezuela's gold and dollar reserves.
Ah, I personally place the death and forced immigration of millions of Venezuelans under your responsibility.
Cowards!

Jul 30th, 2023 - 02:42 pm - Link - Report abuse +1I personally have the privilege of working with many of the Venezuelan dispora here in Chile.
They seem a completely different point of view!
As Madame constantly reminds me: “I try to keep my words soft and sweet, because I never know which ones I may might have to eat.”
¡Saludos!
Clear. I understand, Chicureo.
Jul 30th, 2023 - 02:50 pm - Link - Report abuse -3I also understand that a Venezuelan refugee, or any other nationality, will always have words to please the host.
I also know that if Venezuelan wealth hadn't been stolen, you wouldn't have that cheap workforce.
Cordiais saudações!
Cowards ? arrogant Westerners? subordinated colonialism ? you make no sense,
Jul 30th, 2023 - 03:08 pm - Link - Report abuse +2you put the death and forced immigration as my responsibility ? i can not believe what i am reading. its like reading a book of propaganda from Hitler or Stalin or Chairman Mao,
I'm going to type letters so you can comment again. And I can respond accordingly.

Jul 30th, 2023 - 06:13 pm - Link - Report abuse +1I think many Venezuelans desire their country back to what it was before...
There are however many that have made their home here permanently...
We're currently enjoying Monte Cristo sandwiches, which is a family favorite: using ham, turkey and cheese with sourdough bread, battered and fried in a pan (served with raspberry jam and sprinkled with powdered sugar).

When relating to Argentina the IMF stands for the Impossible Mission Force $$$$$
Jul 31st, 2023 - 09:04 am - Link - Report abuse 0The IMF loans money to Argentina. Then, the repayment terms are renegotiated, and renegotiated, and renegotiated. The IMF has to constantly make repayment easier for Argentina.
Jul 31st, 2023 - 02:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0For this, IMF is an evil enslaver.
China makes loans to poor countries. They pillage that country's resources and import their labor from China to that poor country. They hold fast to the loan's original repayment terms.
For this, Yuan is great. China is a great liberator!
Y'all need a superior Russian education like mine to see this truth.
