A team headed by the Vice Minister of Economy, Gabriel Rubinstein, will leave this Wednesday night for Washington to close the remodeling of the foreign debt payment agreement that Argentina has with the International Monetary Fund. The confirmation of the trip came at a time when a climate of uncertainty had begun regarding the negotiation and the urgency due to the loss of reserves of the Central Bankwhich began to affect the prices of parallel dollars and promised to generate noise in exchange controls and a consequent impact on inflationary pressure.
Sources from the Palacio de Hacienda confirmed to PROFILE that this Wednesday night Rubinstein, the chief of staff, Leonardo Madcurand the second vice president of the BCRA, Lysander Cleri “they have a ticket” purchased on a commercial flight which will depart from Ezeiza bound for the capital of the United States. The officials, who were in charge of holding the daily conversations, via zoom, with the staff of the IMF, carry with them the “resolution” of the negotiation. Massa had promised to send his technical team only when the agreement was closed, so that they would not be held “hostage” in moments of greatest tension.

“It is a tough negotiation, like all, where each one wants to defend their square meter”admitted the first-line source that this medium consulted. That same member of the economic leadership table ruled out the possibility of extending the agreement for a long time or even postponing it until following the elections.. That theory, which had been suggested by an economist with experience in international negotiations, indicated that the current urgency of the macroeconomy put the agreement in the background, according to what he was able to reconstruct.

“Closes”clarified, forcefully, the source of the Palacio de Hacienda. The takeoff date of the plane, with ticket in hand, he sought to remove uncertainty from the speculations that had been previously woven. Massa himself had publicly assured, when he participated two weeks ago in the annual convention of the Chamber of Construction, that the agreement with the IMF would be closed “in the next few hours.” This medium had anticipated that the fine print would be this week, but without a date, because the sources had indicated that there were still sensitive points to discuss.
