In the midst of the escalation of the blue dollar, which is close to $500 in another day full of uncertainty, the Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, said that they will use “all the tools to order this situation.” He also maintained that there is “an atypical situation of rumors, versions, false reports and their consequent impact” on the US currency that is sold in the informal market, which is being sold at historical figures this Tuesday.
The official, in a thread of tweets, explained that “for several days we have been experiencing an atypical situation of rumors, versions, false reports and their consequent impact on financial instruments linked to the dollar” and that “we are going to use all the tools of the State to order this situation and in that sense we notified the IMF of the restrictions that weighed on Argentina and we are going to change in the rediscussion of the Program”.
Along these lines, the minister assured that “economic Criminal Justice will be used as a vehicle for investigation and clarification of some behaviors and the UIF (Financial Information Unit) and the CNV (National Securities Commission) for the analysis of operations linked to money laundering.
“At the same time, we are going to continue with the multilateral agreements, exporters with the transformation of exports into yuan and the disbursement agreement with the IMF to strengthen the reserves that were affected by the impact of the drought,” concluded Massa.
