Given the shortage of diesel in eight provinces, the Government guarantees that more will be imported

Manzur explained that they are “working” on this problem and revealed: “Yesterday I spoke with the authorities, it will be resolved in the course of today or tomorrow. It will matter more.”

Just in the last few hours, FADEEAC, the national chamber that brings together freight transport companies, launched an alert specifying that “eight provinces are in the red,” that is, with very low or no diesel supply at service stations. The jurisdictions are: Jujuy, Salta, Formosa, Tucumán, Misiones, Corrientes, Santa Fe and Entre Ríos.

“Routes 14, 34, 9, 12 and 7 are the ones that suffer the greatest shortage of fuel, while the provinces in red, orange and yellow increase in the ‘Diesel Supply Map’, created by technicians from the Argentine Federation of Freight Transport Business Entities (FADEEAC)),” the report said.

Likewise, the president of that entity, Roberto Guarnieri, assured: “The shortage that we are suffering has been going on for more than two months. We understand that it is not an easy issue to solve, but it is clear to us that it is a problem caused by the lack of foreign currency and the difficulty in making rapid progress on the policies that are required.”

Guarnieri explained that “for several weeks, hundreds of trucks from Bolivia have been coming to the port of Campana to look for the fuel that their country imports” and added that “if you pay, there is fuel available.” “In the meantime, in Argentina we have trucks stranded on the side of the road, due to lack of diesel“, he concluded.
