VOICED : Repsol y Argentina preacuerdo por YPF

Repsol approved a pre-agreement for compensation over the 2012 expropriation of 51% of YPF. The Spanish oil company's board seeks guarantees from the Argentine government for a fair solution. Argentina's proposed compensation involves $5 billion in bonds, which analysts view as risky due to Argentina's economic situation and credit rating. The agreement, though less than the initially claimed $10.5 billion, offers Repsol $5 billion, avoiding a lengthy legal battle.
