Argentine President Cites Global Warming For Fuel Export Ban
01.15.08
Argentina's President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner is blaming global warming for energy cuts and export controls her government imposed, following a heat wave last week.
Last week's power cuts coincided with an Argentinean government decision, in the wake of rising domestic prices, to suspend all exports of liquid fuels, including oil, gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, and naphtha. Trade Secretary Guillermo Moreno also ordered that state-regulated prices return to levels in place on Oct. 31, 2007.
The government says it will lift the ban once oil companies bring down gas and petrol prices.
