from the BCCI,

that financed
There is a definite complicity
between the political class,
the narcotraffickers,
and encouragement of capital flight.
Kickbacks
Plunder of public funds
via dividends
and rate-overcharging
was the norm
for government contracts.
Over 20% of government investments
is estimated
to have vanished in "commissions".
Minister Manzano said,
referring to the President:
"I steal for the crown."
was the PAMI,
the pensioners' health-insurance
organization.
The system of illicit contracts
made with companies
owned by bureaucrats
lasted during several governments.
A monument to corruption
The Yacyret Dam, N.E. Argentina
Yacyret is one of the biggest
earthfill dams in the world,
with a retaining dam
on the river Paran
that is 67km long.
This huge worksite,
financed by Argentineans,
fed the country's slush funds,
ever since the dictatorship.
How did corruption
at Yacyret dam operate?
Overestimation of costs,
overdue work schedules.
Today, the site,
is still not completed,
It has reached
And we still don't know
when it will end.
I'll give you an example:
In 1985,
there was a cost reappraisal
estimated at 30 million dollars,
that was presented several times
to the World Bank
and the Inter-American Bank
of Development.
for 180 million dollars.
Many accepted it.
Some didn't.
They were excluded from Yacyret
by the auditors.
- You, among others?
- Yes.
- Who headed the auditing firm?
- Mr. Carretoni.
He was campaign-manager
for Alfonsn,
then for Angeloz.
A member of the Assembly?
Yes, for the reform
of the Constitution in 1994.
Mr. Carretoni, owned the leading
auditing firm in Argentina,
and was the father-in-law
of the construction company's boss.
Say that again...
Mr. Carretoni
was the father-in-law of Mr. Risso.
So the head of the audit cabinet
that had to control costs,
completion date
and technical quality,
was the builder's father-in-law?
Precisely.
Arms smuggling
We sent arms to Ecuador,
that was at war with Peru,
when Argentina was guaranteeing
a truce between the two countries.
We also sent arms
to Croatia and Bosnia,
violating UN dispositions.
Those implicated
were the Army factories,
the top army brass,
the Ro Tercero factory,
through which most arms passed
coming from the North,
a free-zone.
What happened?
The Ro Tercero factory
was blown up, causing 7 deaths.
As I started
a procedure in March, 1995,
they tried to erase
all traces of the explosion,
all documents,
inventories, fingerprints,
anything that could prove
that it wasn't an accident,
but a planned act
Who was part of this plot?
Its leader was
an ex-president of the republic,
Carlos Menem,
but many others are implicated.
Many other shady events occurred:
"Suicides",
accidental deaths...
A helicopter crashed
opposite the race track,
on a polo field,
causing the death of a key figure...
General Andreoli...
The "suicide" with his wrong hand
of Captain Estrada,
who had been part
of the "terror groups",
during the country's darkest hours.
Today,
a question needs to be clarified:
Where's the money they stole?
Carlos Menem,
his brother-in-law Emir Yoma,
Cavallo and others,
implicated in arms smuggling,
were arrested.
But the Supreme Court
set them free.
These offenses
concerned leaders at all levels.
Ministers, judges,
top bureaucrats
were hauled into law-courts
for corruption.
Neo-Peronists:
Alberto Kohan,Gerardo Sofovich,
Juan Carlos Alderete,
Matilde Menndez,
Mara Julia Alsogaray,
Carlos Grosso, Claudia Bello,
Triaca, Dadone, Grisanti,
Amira and Emir Yoma,
Vico and Spadone.
Radical civil servants:
Delconte, Mazorino
and many others.
Presidential candidates:
Angeloz and Massachessi.
I'll lead the struggle
against corruption.
All the cases were dismissed
The threats concerned
a gold exporting business,
The gold mafia
"If you don't want trouble...
Drug trafficking
"...stay out of this."
They slashed my arm.
During the Menem years...
"Parallel" Customs officers
... the mafiosi thrived
under an obliging government,
and have ever since.
Among their deeds:
Abductions for extortion,
murders...
IBM-Banco Nacin affair
... car thefts,
trigger-happy deaths,
fake accidents
and unexplained suicides.
Deadly bomb attacks
Israeli Embassy
AMIA Jewish center
Crimes still unpunished
The betrayals of the Alliance
In the Argentina
of the mafia organizations,
the Alliance campaigns
and fight corruption,
but without altering the economic
model or the foreign debt.
Made up of the Radical party
and center-left parties,
it promises to investigate
bureaucrats, but disregards
corrupt privatizations
or financial plundering.
Good luck!
The team of Fernando De la Ra
and Carlos Alvarez
beats the neo-Peronist candidate
Eduardo Duhalde.
The new government continues
the IMF's recessionist policy.
Long live De la Ra!
Don't disappoint us!
Once more,
the voters mandate is betrayed:
Civil servants' salaries
are lowered
and taxes raised.
In Spain, De la Ra,
offers to extend
the concession of Argentina's
richest gas reserves,
Loma de la Lata,
to the Repsol oil company.
Worth 50 billion dollars,
they are illicitly surrendered
for 300 million dollars.
The government bribes the Senate
to get it to pass
a controversial labor law.
Vice-president Alvarez
doesn't question the law,
but wants the bribery investigated.
as vice-president of the Nation,
so as not to harm the President,
or jeopardize our institutions...
Alvarez abandons his voters
and works
for the return of Cavallo.
Appointed again as a super-Minister,
Cavallo renegotiates the debt.
This operation,
baptized "mega-exchange",
is another swindle
that costs the country
55 billion dollars.
The "Argentinean miracle"
ended in social disaster.
Cavallo's plans
wiped out the middle class,
made the rich richer
and the poor poorer.
60% of the wealth
wound up in the hands
of the richest 10%.
People are suffering!
People are hungry!
We're not guerrillas!
De la Ra opts for repression:
Two unemployed youths
are murdered in Corrientes,
as a bridge
is cleared of protesters,
3 "piqueteros"
are gunned down in Salta and Jujuy.
Never had an elected president
caused so many deaths
in such short time.
SOCIAL GENOCIDE:
Here, we foresaw exactly
the effects of the austerity plans
adopted by the country.
The well-known austerity plans,
of the era of Alfonsn, of Menem...
These measures
meant the hospital would receive
a huge number
of underfed people,
underfed kids with their families.
We would say to each other:
"This one, in 2 or 3 months,
will need a bed."
