The Week Sunday, September 4, 2016 Hangzhou hangout & hanging onBy Michael Soltys / Senior EditorThe drama of Brazil’s presidential impeachment and the scale of the G20 summit in China eclipse anything happening here over the last week. Government electoral strategies might be very much geared to polarization against Kirchnerism but reality might not bear that out. As for corruption cases on the opposite side to Kirchnerism, Macri continues to both defend and suspend his Customs chief Juan José Gómez Centurión. Macri’s presence in Hangzhou made for a cheerless Industry Day with protectionist hackles raised by fears that recognizing China as a “market economy” would open the floodgates for dumping. And that’s about it for a week ending, courtesy of Hangzhou, with Michetti heading the government in Argentina and Rodrigo Maia (the Lower House Speaker, in case you don’t know) in Brazil.
