Trial by YPF: every day without paying costs US$2.5 million and Argentina is betting on the friendship of countries. Since September of last year, the interest account has accumulated some 414 million dollars.

Judge Loretta Preska authorized a hearing to discover Argentine assets that could be seized. The plaintiff lawyers also want to know every movement of money from the Central Bank (BCRA) abroad. The National Treasury Attorney, in charge of the country's defense, had argued in February that the United States cannot have interference in ruling on Argentine laws.
