17 Sep 2021Argentina Update – 16th of September, 202100:08:08

Rorshok's weekly ten-minute update on the happenings in Argentina. Argentina’s ruling coalition, Frente de Todos, was heavily defeated, which came as a surprise for the government. The heaviest blow was losing the Buenos Aires Province, which has historically supported them, as well as Santa Cruz, the home province of Vice-President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. The current government only emerged victorious in five provinces.So what does this mean for Argentina? First and foremost, Sunday’s results are a punishment for the government, and a strong wake-up call as Argentines continue to be hit by inflation, recession and delayed vaccination. After the defeat, Argentine bonds rallied and stocks jumped the most in three weeks, while the price of the parallel-market dollar decreased to 182 pesos. These stories and more in this week’s update.

30 Jul 2021Argentina Update - 29th of July, 202100:08:59

Rorshok's weekly ten-minute update of stuff happening in Argentina. Thanks in part to a deal with pharma giant Pfizer, 20 million new vaccines will be delivered to the country, giving hope to those parents of children ages 12-17 with pre-existing conditions. It is now projected 25 percent of that compromised population will have access to the vaccine in 2021. To date, more than half of Argentina’s population has been vaccinated with at least one dose. More news to cheer, the men’s rugby team laced its first-ever Olympic medal, after triumphing over Great Britain in the consolation bracket to earn bronze. DHL looks to expand its stronghold in the country, the currency continues its depreciation - these, and much more!

24 Sep 2021Argentina Update – 23rd of September, 202100:08:12

Rorshok's weekly ten-minute update on the happenings in Argentina. Four days after Frente de Todos’ unfavourable results in the primary elections, Interior Minister Eduardo de Pedro offered his resignation, arguing that the government should listen to the verdict given by the electorate. Pedro’s resignation quickly prompted others to do the same. By Monday, President Fernández found himself swearing in a new Cabinet that includes replacements for four ministers — Security; Livestock, Agriculture & Fisheries; Education and Science & Technology — as well as a new Secretary of Communication and Press and a new Cabinet Chief. Due to the crisis, President Fernández cancelled his visit to Mexico for the summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States. He did, however, take time to participate via videoconference in the Major Economies Forum on Energy and Climate Change of G20 countries organized by United States President Joe Biden. During the session, President Fernández devoted much of his time to complaining about the unsustainable debt of 57 billion dollars owed to the IMF. Lastly, an Argentine company, Sinergium Biotech, was chosen by the World Health Organization through the Pan American Health Organization to develop and produce vaccines against Covid-19. Like Moderna and Pfizer, the vaccine will use messenger RNA technology, and another laboratory in Brazil was selected for the same project. Three Cheers for Science in the Land of Silver!

03 Sep 2021Argentina Update – 2nd of September, 202100:07:39

Rorshok's weekly ten-minute update on the happenings in Argentina. Sports News for the Win! With coronavirus cases on the decline in recent weeks, the government announced this week Argentina’s World Cup qualifier against Bolivia will be open for supporters. Boom! The match will take place on Thursday, the 9th of September in the River Plata Monumental Stadium, and thirty percent of the ground will be made available for spectators. Similarly, Brazil will allow 12,000 fans in the stadium for its clash with Argentina on Sunday, the 5th of September. On Friday the 27th of August, Federal Prosecutor Ramiro González finally notified President Fernandez that he stands accused of breaking the mandatory quarantine and strict lockdown rules he introduced himself. All allegations are related to the dinner party he held in July of 2020. In response to these charges, the president offered to donate half of his next four paychecks to an Argentine health institute as a penalty. We’re guessing that’s the ol’ breaking the rules, paying the fine system at work, right there. These stories and more in this week’s update.
