    So in your opinion Dilma is BRICS? App "President Dilma Rousseff's asked, in her closing speech to the meeting of the BRICS countries in South America, for a unified stance against the precedent set by the Judiciary of the United States, which required full payment of the Argentine debt to fund...

    Which says: "A presidente Dilma Rousseff aproveitou o discurso de encerramento da reunião do Brics com os países da América do Sul para pedir um discurso unificado contra o precedente criado pelo Judiciário dos Estados Unidos, que obrigou o pagamento integral da dívida argentina aos chamados...

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    Lovely. Did you actually read from the link you copied? It is in Portuguez and says: "Em apoio à presidente argentina, Cristina Kirchner, Dilma fez um apelo aos demais presidentes por um ”caminho conjunto entre nós“ para mostrar que a decisão da Justiça dos EUA poderá ser muito dura para...

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    Of course we can trust what the Argentine government tells us - can't we? El jefe de Gabinete, Capitanich, destacó el "apoyo de la comunidad internacional" a la Argentina en este conflicto, que ayer sumó el respaldo de los países que conforman los bloques BRICS y Unasur. Cabinet Chief...

    Where Is The Best Place In Buenos Aires To Exchange Dollars?

    The exchange rate changes day by day and there is no official rate. Check Ambito http://www.ambito.co.../monedas/dolar/ and Dolarblue http://dolarblue.net/ The 'compra' is what you can expect to get when you exchange a few hundred dollars (as glasgowjohn writes you may get a sligthly better...

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    If Argentina defaults in early August, I fail to see how the successors can be blamed for the default. "The domestic political cost of a default is huge" - if one of us is misinterpreting, I don't think it's me. Let us wait and see the proof in the pudding in 3 weeks.

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    You think they would be happy having the choice between dangling in a lamppost or fleeing to Uruguay in 2-3 weeks? Interesting thought.

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    I don't understand your interpretation of my post. Read: "The domestic political cost of a default is huge" I assume that the present government doesn't want to leave Buenos Aires in a helicopter bound for Uruguay in the beginning of August.

    For 'Dollars' read 'just about any foreign currency' (except Zimbabwe dollars and Venezuelan Bolivar Fuerte). Pesos Uruguayanos and Chilenos, Euros, British pounds, Reais, etc., etc. are in great demand.

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    If we are to believe the Argentine government's propaganda, 122 percent of the countries in the world are supporting Argentina. Why don't these many, many, many allegedly supporting countries each pay a few dollars and make the problem go away?

    Effects Of A Default On Expats

    I for one very much doubt this will end in a default. The domestic political cost of a default is huge and the problems with future investments for developing Argentine resources far to great. I am also sure, that hopes based on e.g. the planned BRICS bank, China and The Soviet Union Russia...

    Moving To Mendoza From Ba

    La Quinta Sección (where I have been living these last 5 years) and Cuarta Oeste. Both are also close to Parque San Martín and the artificial lake. Las Heras to the north and parts of Guaymallén are places to stay away from, at least after dark. Mendoza de Noche - mendoza - cultura - cine -...

    New At Rio Soup Kitchen: Argentines

    cavehill, please explain how the waste of 11 billion dollars on stadions compensate the poor in Rio for their lost meals, which were eaten by tourists.

    New At Rio Soup Kitchen: Argentines

    As it says in the article that started the whole thing: "The state-funded Citizen Restaurant in downtown Rio is accustomed to serving a balanced meal at an unbeatable price to about 5,000 poor residents of this city each day." Are a number of poor Brazilians cheated of their meal when tourists...

    Yep. Los medios brasileños ya brindan su apoyo a Alemania. Como era de esperar, la prensa local se puso del lado de los teutones para la final del próximo domingo. http://www.losandes....poyo-a-alemania One might easily get the idea that Argentina is less loved in Brasil than the Argentines...

    You can get nothing like e.g. Reineta Margarita anywhere in Argentina - nowhere on the Atlantic side of the Cordilleras as a matter of fact.

    Kicillof Pays To 92% Of Bondholders, Griesa's Move Now?

    I assume you got this impression from my list. There is, however, no indication that Griesa used the Belgian appeal court's ruling as a precedent. The arguments for his ruling and the US appeal court's acceptance of his interpretation is described in "United States Court of Appeal's ruling, NML...

    Kicillof Pays To 92% Of Bondholders, Griesa's Move Now?

    A1: Stocks, venture capital (meaning: to risk), etc. are well known to be risky as opposed to bonds, thus providing higher yields. The answer is thus No, financial capital based on stocks, venture, etc. should not be guaranteed, they are by definition risk prone. Casinos are completely...
