Although it seems like years, it is only five months since President Donald Trump took office for the second time in the White House. His goal – effectively condensed in the slogan MAGA (Make America Great Again), that is, to do whatever needs to be done to regain the lost primacy – contemplates an unconventional socio-economic-political revolution whose scope involves us. For many reasons, Argentina and, above all, our South, is in the Trumpist “restoration” plan. (more…)

It may not get to unload, because in order to do so, it must receive a signal from the commercial center that hired it, indicating that it has received $60,000 in payment.
