Responses included a diplomatic offensive by Rajoy in other countries in the region, assurances by Industry Minister José Manuel Soria of " clear and decisive " Spanish government measures, Foreign Minister José García-Margallo y Marfil's admonition that Argentina had " shot itself in the foot " by damaging relations with Spain ( adding that such a move would make Argentina a " pariah "), and other threats.
According to a Spanish Embassy memo obtained by the Financial Times Spanish executives of YPF were " hunted down " by Argentine officials, and armed guards used " physical violence and threats.
" Repsol's spokesman at YPF at the time refuted the Spanish Embassy story, however, noting that Roberto Baratta ( state representative in the YPF board of directors ) " was formal in his demeanor.
