Macri says City lacks funds to keep subsidies on bus lines
Buenos Aires City Mayor Mauricio Macri came on stage on Friday after the national government sent a bill to Congress to transfer 33 bus lines to the City's scope.
"We don't have enough funds to keep the subsidies on bus lines," he said adding that if subsidies are cut, tariffs should be raised above 3.50 or 4 pesos.
"I cannot get one thousand million pesos overnight to keep subsidies on buses," Macri warned.
