Meat Trade News Daily | Argentina - Beef prices rise 140% since December
Argentina's government has courted more controversy after a meeting between President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and farmers' representatives deteriorated into an angry war of words over who is to blame for higher beef prices.
The government is already embroiled in an unprecedented row after its attempted use of Central Bank reserves to pay off Argentina's debt, which led to the removal of Central Bank Gov. Martin Redrado and a public reproach from the High Court.
At the farmers' meeting, Fernandez conceded that meat prices in Argentina had risen beyond reasonable levels but blamed the hikes on profiteering by the livestock producers.
The president's comments provoked an immediate volley of angry retorts from the farmers' representatives, who said her comments were offensive and did not take account of the government's own policies as the cause of the hikes.
Recent increases in food prices, coupled with shortages of electricity and other outages, have heightened discontent in Argentina. The rising prices of beef, Argentina's staple diet, have caused widespread outrage that the government so far has been unable to deal with, choosing instead to blame one or other sector of the economy.
Lack of progress on poverty-reduction programs for Argentina's outlying areas has also eroded the government's popularity.
Added to that has been public anger over charges the president's spouse and former president, Nestor Kirchner, dabbled in insider trading while buying $2 million in U.S. currency soon after the 2008 financial crisis. Kirchner has denied any wrongdoing, but opposition critics of Fernandez have fanned anti-government sentiment and latent resentment of the presidential couple's financial dealings has given rise to published comments and criticism in the country's print and broadcast media.

Afghanistan to Seek Fresh Iron Ore Bids After Company Protests (Bloomberg) -- The Afghan government said it will soon seek new bids to mine one of the world’s richest iron ore deposits after abandoning a tender damaged by company complaints and withdrawals. The government has formally decided to restart bidding for the 1.8 billion-ton Hajigak deposit after Tuwairqi Steel Mills Ltd., a Pakistani unit of Saudi Arabia’s Al-Tuwairqi Group, alone accepted invitations to visit the site, Deputy Mines Minister Abdul Qudus Hamidi said.

Protesters sweep through downtown Vancouver Two major street rallies mobilize demonstrators ranging from aboriginal rights groups to advocates for the homeless. Police keep them from blocking spectators attending the Games' opening ceremony. Reporting from Vancouver, Canada - Chanting "We ain't got no tickets!" and "Homes Not Games," more than 1,000 protesters swept through downtown Vancouver toward the Olympic opening ceremony Friday but were held back by police before they could block spectators from entering the celebration. Billed as an action "against capitalism and colonization," the first of two major street rallies mobilized demonstrators ranging from aboriginal rights groups to advocates for the homeless, all aiming to mount one of the biggest-ever organized protests against the Olympic Games. "There's never been an Olympic protest like this. This is a first," said Chris Shaw, spokesman for 2010 Watch, which claims Canadian citizens are bearing the brunt of the multibillion-dollar cost of a sporting event they say will benefit land developers and corporate sponsors. "It was one of the largest rallies in Vancouver history, and the protest led right up to the door of the [International Olympic Committee]," Shaw said. READ MORE |
