Argentine presidential candidate Daniel Scioli criticized rivals seeking to succeed President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner in October’s election, saying they want to pay “vulture funds” that sued the government for full payment from the 2001 default.
In a speech to open a bank workers conference Wednesday, the current governor of Buenos Aires province also said his opponents would mete out neo-liberal “adjustment” measures that would hurt the poor and revive policies that had only racked up debt and led to the financial crisis of 2001-2002.
