Perlas de Wikileaks (versión cabotaje)

Considero de lectura obligatoria este link.

Según mi arbitrario juicio estas son algunas de las perlas del primero de los documentos disponibles.

Diego Guelar, a foreign

policy advisor to Buenos Aires Mayor Mauricio Macri, told a

visiting congressional staffer last August that "this

government won't last 60 days"

A former aide to Buenos Aires Province

Governor Daniel Scioli confided to us recently that he and

other colleagues had urged Scioli to break ranks with the

Kirchners last year over the farm controversy. Scioli said

he wouldn't because "If I do, they'll fall, and I'm no coup

monger."

Along the same lines, Radical leader

Gerardo Morales said a few days ago that "if the (current)

dialogue falls apart, the Government will have so little

margin for error that anything could happen."

Over the

weekend, dissident labor leader Luis Barrionuevo said plainly

that "I see Julio Cobos finishing Cristina's term."

According to the second variant, Nestor has

indeed changed. In fact, he's gone crazy. Jorge Brito, once

known as "Nestor's banker," seems to believe this theory,

confiding to the CDA that NK appears increasingly obsessive

and disinclined to listen to advice. "He used to listen to

me," Brito recalled, "but now he doesn't bother." Another

banker told us that "Nestor has basically had a nervous

breakdown."

Miguel Broda complains that

"there's not a single serious macroeconomist on the whole

Economy Ministry staff."

Banker Brito described the GOA to

us as "made up of people who can't even add or subtract." He

was particularly scathing about Guillermo Moreno, the

Internal Commerce Secretary who serves as NK's

Interventionist in Chief, whom he called a "psychopath" who

"thinks he's a genius" but "is as dumb as the rest of them."

Mario Blejer, a former Central Bank chief and IMF Officer who

reportedly turned down an offer to take over the Economy

Ministry a few weeks ago, told the CDA that the problem is

Nestor's control over GOA economic policy. According to

Blejer, "Nestor knows nothing about economics, and to make

matters worse, he thinks he does, so he doesn't listen to

advice." This leads to an economic policy framework

described by another former Central Bank president as

"autistic."
