The move, which had drawn expressions of concern from Spain and the EU, was announced to applause at a meeting between President Cristina Kirchner and her cabinet and Argentine governors. The remaining 49 percent would be distributed among Argentinian provinces that produce oil, the declaration said. AFP PHOTO / DANIEL GARCIA (Photo credit should read DANIEL GARCIA/AFP/Getty Images)
