Kirchner's flight?


Argentina is financially broke. Only the ones who have limited contact with the country don't realize it. The social instability (limited and contained looting in a couple of specific incidents are the most recent examples), galloping inflation, capital flows limitations, power shortages, unstable power of law show it clearly. And the crescent rhetoric concerning the Falkland is just another clear example of it - because it again (like in 1982) seems like a Government trying to shift internal attentions from economic problems to sovereign ones. 

Argentina doesn't deserve this. It is not broken as a nation. Argentinians are incredibly proud, hard-working and resourceful. They have governing issues (they have had so for many, many years, probably since the beginning of the XX century, like my country), but I am sure they will be able to overcome them. And I really hope so - because I love the country, the nation and have high expectations of it.
