Reported by AI Image generated by AI
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York overturned on Friday the first-instance ruling ordering Argentina to pay over $16 billion for the 2012 YPF expropriation. President Javier Milei hailed the decision as a historic victory and criticized former Kirchnerist officials. The ruling averts a massive payout, though Burford Capital said it will appeal.
YPF president and CEO Horacio Marín said the company has not yet reached the equilibrium value needed to cut fuel prices due to rising Brent oil prices.

Following the U.S. appeals court's recent annulment of a $16 billion YPF expropriation ruling, Argentina gains partial relief from international litigation pressures. However, claims exceeding US$10 billion persist in cases involving debt, GDP-linked bonds, holdouts, Aerolíneas Argentinas, and related matters, amid reported government infighting.
