The Paraguayan delegation before Mercosur Parliament, Parlasur, accused Argentina of “systematically and permanently ignoring the Asuncion Treaty” (the founding charter of Mercosur).
The sale of power from landlocked Paraguay to Uruguay remains in suspense given a “difference” in the toll price for the use of the Argentine grid to deliver the power.
Argentina is delaying the sale of Paraguayan power to the Uruguayan market (which must cross Argentine territory) for reasons ‘as least publicly’ unknown for both sides interested in the deal, according to the Uruguayan and Paraguayan press.
