Argentina’s Interior Commerce Secretary Guillermo Moreno resigned after eight years of controlling prices and imports using strong-arm tactics that earned him a reputation as a bully.
Moreno will be economic attache at the Argentine Embassy in Italy starting Dec. 2, presidential spokesman Alfredo Scoccimarro said late yesterday in a televised broadcast from the government house. He didn’t say who will replace the most feared government official who once brought boxing gloves to a shareholders meeting to force Argentina’s demands.
