Dollar: in the Government they justified that the Central Bank “ran” from the market only for one day
The Government, at least for 24 hours, stopped intervening on parallel quotes on Thursday, which triggered a jump of the MEP to $473 and the CCL to $495. The measure promoted by the Ministry of Economy avoided continuing to use reserves to curb exchange pressures, but it did not prevent the Central Bank from closing a new day with a loss of reserves.
In official dispatches, they assure that the objective was a punctual intervention to stop the “curl” observed in the last wheels, from the official intervention since the exchange rate run. “All market speculation, nothing to do with the IMF, was to disarm the loop, there was volume due to a demanding market,” official sources said.

Interest on public debt: the Government has paid the equivalent of more than US$ 25,000 million
Interest payments on public debt continue to rise, deteriorating public finances and the scarce reserves of the Central Bank. Under the current Government, interests for the equivalent of US$ 25,051 million were paid in pesos and foreign currency.
After the payment in pesos and foreign currency for the equivalent of US$ 7,629 million during 2022, in the first four months of this year interest was paid for the equivalent of US$ 3,276 million, according to data from the Budget Office of the Congress (OPC).
In relation to the first four-month period of 2022, debt interest expense ($793,438 million) registered an increase of 9.1% year-on-year in real terms (above inflation), which is explained by higher interest payments for IMF loans and foreign currency securities issued under the debt restructuring process of September 2020.
