Bancos extranjeros escapan de la deuda hipotecaria española

¡Shhhhhhh! ¡No se lo digan a nadie! Es uno de los "secretos" que los multimedia mafiosos mexicanos jamás dirán a micrófono abierto. A España se le ha "vendido" como el milagro económico a seguir... Pero NINGUN comentarista de los medios masivos en México se atreverá a informar que España es el segundo país con mayor déficit comercial del mundo (con una brutal deuda de $126,000 millones de dólares) sólo superado por Estados Unidos. Es decir, su crecimiento económico ha sido resultado de endeudamiento sin precedentes y que al parecer comienza a derrumbarse. Hay que preguntar cuál es el estado de los bancos españoles en México, Satander (¿Santander?) y Bancomer (BBVA).

Inmobiliaria Colonial - once the country's biggest property group --is in emergency talks with banks after Dubai's Investment Corporation pulled out of a rescue deal.
