Argentina and the United States have agreed on a common mechanism for combatting the financing of international terrorism.
The agreement was signed last week by US Deputy Treasury Secretary for Terrorism Financing Daniel Glaser and Argentina’s Finance Secretary Luis Caputo.
Both governments reportedly worked to identify illicit threats and to develop joint strategies to confronting terrorism. A series of initiatives will combat money laundering, the financing of terrorism and other financial crimes.
“The United States’ commitment to jointly combating illicit finances and protecting the integrity of our financial systems has never been stronger,” Glaser said in a statement.
Caputo said the initiative represents “the most solid association in the bilateral history of Argentina and the United States to build a financial system and safer and healthier economies.”

Caracas Venezuela has also returned as being one of the most violent cities in the world, also found in reading there. I've never quite understood why that is. Yes, some criminal activities occur there but I don't think that fully explains it.
