"The Province does not have a fixed position in this regard," acknowledged the Secretary of Fisheries, Gabriel Aguilar, regarding the interest of Chinese investors who have fished illegally within the EEZ in installing a logistics center in the city of Comodoro Rivadavia to attend the foreign fleet.
The government of Mariano Arcioni avoided showing in favor of the possible establishment of Chinese companies that operate in Mile 201 to supply the foreign fleet that operates on the Illex argentinus species, but neither did it reject the claim of Asian investors to settle in the province of Chubut to assist those who have repeatedly fished illegally within the Argentine Exclusive Economic Zone.
In a striking response to the journalistic request, the provincial secretary of Fisheries, José Gabriel Aguilar, confessed that the Arcioni government lacks a political position in this regard, and subordinated the issue to what the national administration of Argentine President Alberto Fernández decides.
Nobody escapes that since the presidency of Cristina Kirchner and the current administration maintain a strategic alliance with Beijing. An official visit by the president, Alberto Fernández, is scheduled for May, and in the agenda that they elaborate to maintain with the communist regime of Xi Jinping is an ambitious package of investments in infrastructure for which it is necessary to have financing and support from Chinese funds.

Argentina will go to China to request investments in areas and projects of geopolitical sensitivity linked to airspace, fluvial or strategic installation in territorial areas with monitoring of Beijing.
SOUTH ATLANTIC PREDATORS
In the last hours it became clear that a conglomerate of Chinese companies, made up of Zhoushan Huaxi Ocean Fhiseries, Hongdong Fhiseries, Rongcheng Rongyuan and Shanghai Kunting Import, is interested in developing a logistics base in Comodoro Rivadavia to assist the foreign fleet that operates in Mile 201.
In May 2020, in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic, the Argentine Coast Guard captured the ship Lu Rong Yuan Yu 668 illegally fishing in Argentine waters. The boat was taken to the Golfo Nuevo where she anchored, unable to touch the dock in the city of Puerto Madryn, and after paying the fine she returned to international waters with the Argentine squid caught illegally.
The company that owns that vessel is part of this group of Chinese investors interested in planting a flag in Comodoro Rivadavia and taking control of the shipyard, from where they intend to assist foreign ships that make up the "floating city", noted for its predatory practices fishing in the South Atlantic.

THE CASA ROSADA (Headquarters of the Argentine Executive Power) DECIDES
For his part, Aguilar in statements to AzM Radio, acknowledged that the initiative "generates a stir", but also publicly admitted that "the Government of Chubut has not yet established a position in this regard, for which we will be waiting for an agreement that it transits between the Provincial and National Governments ” and added that“ for the moment, there is a presentation made by Dr. Roberto Hughes, lawyer representing the fleet, with the intention that Comodoro analyze the possibility of putting this shipyard into operation , which today is simply a shell, a ship that was not completed and on which investments should be made ”.
The administration of Mariano Arcioni, financially and economically burdened, does not want to have a new brush with the Casa Rosada, and faced with an issue as sensitive as this, from Chubut they try not to collide with the diplomatic policy that Alberto Fernández will develop before the Beijing regime .
“On Monday he was talking to the Governor about this issue, and he himself had to discuss this issue with the President to see what the position of the National Government is; the Province does not have a fixed position in this regard and my opinion is personal, not that of the Government, ” Aguilar said only.
