This Wednesday, the President of Argentina, Alberto Fernández, received the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, in Buenos Aires.
In their joint press conference, the Argentine president made an unfortunate occurrence.
Erroneously quoting the Mexican writer Octavio Paz, he said: "The Mexicans came from the Indians, the Brazilians from the jungle and we, the Argentines, came from the ships."
The matter had a huge impact on the world press, on social networks and in the affected countries, and Fernández ended up apologizing twice.
