Economist Rosario Negron spoke to Michael Fox, the host of teleSUR program Imaginary Lines, about the debt crisis in Puerto Rico and the default on the US$72 billion debt. Negron said that the island’s status as a commonwealth territory of the United States makes Puerto Rico’s economic situation all the more difficult. She pointed out that the Puerto Rican case is different from the case of Greece due to the political relationship with the United States and the total lack of support offered by that country. teleSUR
