"The Spanish reaction to no less than the expropriation of the oil company YPF by the Argentine Government has led the EU Minister for Foreign Affairs, finally, to request that the Foreign Affairs Council meet to discuss EU-Argentina relations, in order to clarify our economic and financial relations. Many European investors have, for some time, been calling on the European institutions to take action to protect their rights, which have been violated by the decisions taken by the Argentine Government following its default. The Committee on Petitions has dealt with the issue in the course of its work, having received a large number of petitions. The Commission’s statement of non-competence as regards the regulation of financial relations with Argentina, relegated to a corner of the bilateral negotiations, forced me to redirect the request for intervention to the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, and I invited her to review our trade relations and use them as leverage to obtain due compliance from the Argentine Government. Undoubtedly, privatisation of the capital of the group, of which the Spanish company Repsol owns 57.4%, is an action that will have severe negative repercussions on the markets. However, the negative repercussions from the failure to pay millions of citizens have also played a not insignificant part in exacerbating the financial crisis, on a broader but no less incisive scale."@en1
