    Could Milei win in the first round?

    I'm more afraid the post-election situation might resemble Russia of 1917 rather than Russia of 1985.

    Steve Forbes' Commentary on Milei

    I also don't see the relevance. It is a known fact, for example, that the unemployment in Germany significantly decreased under the Nazi regime by 1939 compared to the early 1930s. What conclusion would you make out of that, following the same logic?

    The pregnant Russian trafficking network

    You are giving them too much credit. In Russian, it literally says They come to pick him up, how do you go to the hotel? It's not possible to answer a 'how' question with a simple 'yes' or 'no' response. Not to mention the fact that it is unclear who "they" are and who "he" is.

    Getting refugees admitted

    If they were not forced to leave their houses, hardly you can call them refugees. You just want to get some kids of your relatives for a vacation.

    Is there a way to get USD in BA?

    Do you believe in a free market? There is only one real market rate. And it is the "dolar blue" rate. The government introduced an artificial spread on exchange operations and takes its cut. You have to sell dollars at the low rate established by the government, but you can buy only at the blue...

    200 Cuban Doctors arriving to Help with Corona Virus Crisis

    I guess there is no point to argue with "Duck and cover" generation. It is just an irrational hatred of everything Cuban. A Cuban victim of doctor's trafficking is getting ready to perform COVID-19 tests in Argentina lab.

    Macri Or Fernandez's Who Will Win Paso

    Seriously? He was elected as a pro-business president in contrast to Cristina, who nationalized YPF (among other things). He was elected by people who wanted things to change. He promised an avalanche of foreign investments into the country (and new jobs and the economic boom). And all this has...

    How ugly has it gotten, or not?

    Well, there is still a possibility. Here is a story. Back in 1996 pro-western president Boris Yeltsin entered his second term presidential election race with 8% approval rating and ultimately won the elections. What happened after that is described in details here, but basically enormous...
