Mauricio Macri addresses Argentina's conflict with speculative funds, blaming the Kirchner administration for poor negotiations. He promises resolution if elected, without detailing how to avoid a sharp devaluation. Macri plans to lift dollar sale restrictions, asserting that the issue is not a lack of dollars but a lack of trust in the government. He emphasizes truth, reducing inflation, and clear rules. Previously, Macri stated Argentina should comply with a U.S. court ruling to pay $1.6 billion to speculative funds. He leads polls against Daniel Scioli, with both set for Argentina's first-ever runoff election.
