The government moved the official exchange rate on Wednesday for the first time since August 13, when the value was fixed at AR$350 with a 22% currency devaluation. The decisions mean that the currency will depreciate by 3% monthly as of Wednesday, starting at AR$353 (three pesos more than on Tuesday). In its latest Market Expectations Survey (REM, by its Spanish initials) the Central Bank said that consultants expect the official exchange rate to be at AR$526.4 in December — much more than the monthly 3% promised by the government.

Taylor Swift wasn’t the only performer from the Eras Tour who lived it up in Buenos Aires last week. Swift’s dancers made the most of it, taking in a dinner tango show at El Viejo Almacén in San Telmo. Declared a place of cultural interest by Argentine Congress in 1982, El Viejo Almacén is a place to enjoy traditional Argentine gastronomy like asado (barbecue) and its national dance, the tango. Tango was born at the end of the nineteenth century along the Río de la Plata. Taylor Swift performed three sold-out shows in Buenos Aires between November 9 and 12, despite Friday’s bad weather.

Economy Minister and Unión por la Patria (UxP) presidential candidate Sergio Massa says that 2024 will be a better year in terms of foreign currency. In addition to the end of the drought in the agricultural sector, the energy sector, which for the last decade has operated at a deficit in Argentina, is also expected to add dollars. According to consulting firm Aleph Energy, — associated to Ecolatina —, while the 2022 energy trade balance ended with almost US$4,4 billion in deficit, the balance is expected to end this year in near equilibrium. “Part of this is explained by cheaper international prices and lower fuel demands in the agricultural sector”, the consulting firm says. Improvements for 2024 are mainly due to “larger oil and gas transports, either already completed or in progress.” Oil exports are expected to increase from US$3,4 billion to US$5 billion.

Lula greeted passengers with hugs and kisses after their arrival late on Monday evening, offering his support to Brazilians still in or arriving from the Gaza Strip and condemning the killing of civilians in Gaza. “I have never seen such brutal, inhumane violence against innocent people,” Lula said in a short speech on the tarmac. The Gaza Strip has been under bombardment by Israel, which aims to annihilate Hamas, the militant group which runs the Gaza Strip and which attacked Israel from Gaza on October 7, killing around 1,200 people. Gaza medical authorities say more than 11,000 people there have been confirmed killed, with about 40% of them being children. Lula echoed earlier criticisms of both Hamas for its attack against Israel and Israel for its reaction.

Economy Minister Massa, of the ruling Unión por la Patria coalition, quickly capitalized on the debate’s format, which allowed for candidates to interact more directly with one another than in the previous rounds. “Will you cut [transport] subsidies, yes or no?” Massa asked Milei, who has built his campaign around a pledge to reduce the state’s role in the economy. When asked about Massa’s performance, Agustín Rossi, Massa’s VP-hopeful, remarked that the economy minister was “better prepared.”That takeaway extended to the candidates’ respective camps. The UCR bills itself as the champion of Argentina’s democracy, and its voters are prime targets for the Massa campaign’s messaging. Massa will be hard on the offensive, touting both his vision for a “national unity” government and attacking Milei as an existential threat to Argentine democratic institutions.

The Buenos Aires province branch of the National Electoral Court informed the far-right coalition La Libertad Avanza (LLA) that they had not provided enough ballots for the polling stations in the district. Due to irregularities in the ballots that were delivered, the court ordered the coalition to provide details on the number of ballots sent in future. For this election, each of the two competing coalitions should provide polling stations — such as schools — with a maximum of 350 ballots per polling desk in Buenos Aires province. This would force the electoral authorities to take ballots out of the replacement packages or even from other municipalities to complete the necessary number of ballots in other polling desks. While the electoral court confirmed that UxP sent packages with 350 ballots each in clear plastic bags, LLA sent different numbers of ballots in each bag.

The United States embassy in Buenos Aires has been transformed into an immersive canvas in honor of Pride. The week-long event, “Pride Mapping,” features artwork by LGBTQIA+ artists and allies — from both Argentina and the US — being projected onto the Bosch Palace, Avenida Liberador 3502 until November 12. The artists collaborated with UXArt Lab Museo to create 3D projections and art data with generative artificial intelligence technology, using their masterpieces as a starting point. Andrea Pasut, an artist involved in the project, told the Herald that at first, she had some reservations about the involvement of AI. “My art is about reaching as many people as possible, expanding the artistic view toward diversity,” she said, explaining that after discussing it with Durán, her artwork is being projected without AI intervention.
