Buenos Aires Herald

President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner has fiercely criticised the trade union leaders behind a 24-hour general strike, asserting that adhesion to the measure would have been far lower if public transport had functioned as normal.
Following the CNV securities regulator’s decision to suspend Citibank Argentina from its custody business in the country, Clearstream said in a press release it stopped settlement on all Argentine bonds, and will re-open for non-exchange bonds if it gets clarification.
Criminal prosecution judge Axel López has been cleared of misconduct charges cleared to the release of reoffending criminals under his charge, and will be able to continue in his post following a majority decision in the magistrate's favour.

Transport workers and allied groups from both pro- and anti-government umbrella unions shut down much of the City of Buenos Aires with a general strike, which brought public transport to a standstill and forced many businesses to close for 24 hours.
Opposition CGT union leader Hugo Moyano has described the national transport strike carried out today as a “success” and stated he expects an “answer” from the government as regards their claim towards an income tax reform.
The Federal government has requested the annulment of the sentence that declared the Iran memorandum unconstitutional, while prosecutor Raúl Pleé defended the verdict in a hearing held at the Second Courtroom of the National Chamber of Criminal Appeals.



Due to today's tsrike, we are publishing an emergency 16-page edition with a mid-afternoon press time in order to allow the newspaper to be printed and distributed before transport was crippled at midnight. We apologise to our readers for the inconvenience for reasons beyond our countrol.
Buenos Aires province Governor Daniel Scioli has expressed his support to Máximo Kirchner following media reports that alluded to the president’s son holding secret bank accounts in the United States and the Cayman Islands.
