    Argentina asks to join NATO as a global partner

    It is an interesting point that often comes up in conversations with Argentinians. I just don’t think neutrality would mean much anymore in our globalised world and in the era of transnational terrorism. Argentina being Argentina and behind times would actually be what serves it better. First...

    Argentina asks to join NATO as a global partner

    It’s one thing to apply, quite another to be accepted. Even just as global partner.

    Skipping second leg of a flight

    How are retirees coping nowadays?

    It will raise. But with a house you have control on when and what maintenance you want to do. So you can budget doing maintenance and projects when the brecha is advantageous.

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    Definitely too much ideology and too far from current Argentinian priorities. But meeting and getting advice from someone as politically clever as Netanyahu is as good as it gets. Not saying anything about his views, just about his undeniable political shrewdness.

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    I m not sure it’s about inexperience. Doing the ‘experienced’ thing plays into the status quo, even more compromises and stalling. And that’s precisely what the opposition is after. It’s more that with such little power in the cámaras, there aren’t too many options. I just read an interesting...

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    That abortion call from that deputy was such an unbelievable WTF moment. The gov obviously distanced itself from any of it, but still.

    Argentines bought a fifth less at food and drink stores in December

    It costs zero to any business owner/employees to improve customer service to attract customers. And there is margin for improvement in customer service in our beloved Argentina. Also every second shop around my place is closed for their usual Jan 3 weeks holidays atm. Except for the chinos, they...

    Someone lived in BS AS 10 years never been to Rio compare them?

    Rio and BsAs are completely different cities in every way. But no shadow of a doubt that rio is more violent. If going to rio for holidays you most likely going to stay in Zona Sur or maybe around the Olegario Maciel and the beginning of Barra. All definitely walkable but you d certainly need...

    Milei's Omnibus Law

    Over 300 pretty full articles in the DNU but it’s the obscure black robes one that proves how out of touch this proposal is?… let’s just say that if the dnu was that meaningless it wouldn’t be fought so hard by all the unions and Ks. But most importantly this type of comment is precisely what...

    Milei's Omnibus Law

    I can’t see anything extreme in this DNU. It is Argentina’s current over regulated and clunky framework that is extreme. The common denominator in much of the arguments against is fear. Fear of change, fear of losing privileges, fear of the violent reaction of those resisting change. And of...

    New official exchange rate: 800 pesos per dollar

    Isn’t this precisely part of the strategy to cap inflation? That market demand sets the ceiling? As to whether that’d work in Argentina is a different story. But genuine question

    Collaborative Project on Shady Practices Among Taxi Vendors at AEP

    Right-o, resurrecting this thread. First world problems especially in the light of the current situation. But it all adds up Just got in at AEP and of course the taxi rank a AEP international arrivals ‘lost’ the QR code sign. So I went to the domestic arrivals taxi rank where they are pretty...
