Spanish term or phrase: por la oposición de las sillas duras
The term in question appears in the second paragraph, and the text involves the International Monetary Fund. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Al no cumplirse con las medidas remediales, en la reunión del Directorio, este emite una declaración de censura contra Argentina por su incumplimiento de las obligaciones del Convenio Constitutivo al proporcionar información inexacta sobre el IPC GBA y el PBI. Otorga hasta fines de septiembre para que se cumplan las medidas remediales y solicita que a mediados de noviembre la MD le informe sobre el estado de situación.

La nueva reunión del Directorio para tratar el tema se realiza el 9 de diciembre y pese a que se aclara que no se cumplió ninguna de las medidas remediales solicitadas se acepta con gran dificultad por la oposición de las sillas duras que se reemplace el IPC-GBA por el nuevo IPCNu y, en base a los progresos desarrollados en la construcción del nuevo IPCNu es que se llama a Argentina a implementar una serie de medidas antes de fin de marzo y el resto en septiembre de 2014 y febrero 2015 (Anexo).

Executive committee chairs


Explanation:
The new Board meeting to address the issue was held on 9 December and although it was clarified that none of the requested remedial measures had been fulfilled as yet, it was accepted with great difficulty due to the opposition of the executive committee chairs that the CPI-GBA be replaced by the new CPI-uCPNU and, based on the progress made in the construction of the new CPI-uCPNU, Argentina was called upon to implement a series of measures before the end of March with the rest to follow in September 2014 and February 2015 (Annex)


I think this is what is meant by " hard chairs" which can't be translated literlly into English;
