The last years with a trade surplus in the exchange between the two countries are 2019 and, the previous one, 2002. The maximum bilateral deficit since 1993 was reached in 2017, when it amounted to 8,563 million dollars. This record is explained by the strong increase in imports and the weak advance in exports during that year.
It is important to highlight that Brazil is Argentina’s main trading partner, a relationship that historically showed deficit balances because imports from that country are usually strategic for our productive fabric.
