Antonio Gómez
Antonio Gómez is an Argentine merchant who has shed light on the informal meat trade occurring along the border with Bolivia. He describes how this illicit commerce operates, with both Argentine and Bolivian individuals collaborating to transport cheaper Bolivian meat across the border.
