Senator
Martín Lousteau
spoke critically against
Javier Milei,
whom he suggested accuses different political leaders of being "caste" just because they do not align behind his projects.
“Milei has the dream of his own caste, not of his own house
,” ironically stated the president of the Radical Civic Union.
Lousteau referred in harsh terms to the President in the context of the confrontation that the UCR has with the Government.
A wing of the radicals had come out to emphatically reject the Omnibus Law project – later withdrawn by the Congressional Government – and, in the last hours, they urged the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem, to establish the commission bicameral that must deal with decrees of necessity and urgency.
“We have a very dogmatic president and it is very difficult to reach consensus to reform things.
His reaction to frustration is anger
.
Then he starts pointing at people,” analyzed Lousteau, interviewed by communicator
Pedro Rosemblat
on the Gelatina program.
In that sense, the senator appealed to a key concept in the narrative formation of La Libertad Avanza: that of caste.
“Milei has the dream of her own caste, not her own house
,” Chicane Lousteau said.
Maximiliano Pullaro and Martín Lousteau after the electoral victory of the Santa Fe.
He gave as an example the case of the Tucumán deputies who respond to Governor Osvaldo Jaldo, a former ally of Kirchnerism, who spoke out in favor of the Omnibus Law.
“If the people of Tucumán turn around and vote for him, they are not caste, but if they had not turned around they would have been caste, the same people
,” Lousteau pointed out the contradictions of the ruling party.
He also allowed himself an irony along the same lines:
“(Daniel) Scioli and Patricia Bullrich are not more chaste... it is quite particular
." And he came out in defense of his coreligionist and political ally, the governor of Santa Fe. "(Maximiliano ) Pullaro, who is new, (is caste) and (Martín) Llaryora is caste; and there are a lot of new deputies, senators, mayors who, among other things, got more votes than Milei in their districts."
What Martín Lousteau thinks about Javier Milei's economic policies
Lousteau, an economist by profession like Milei himself, also spoke at length about the evolution of the economic decisions that the Government has made since it took office on December 10.
“I am afraid that this plan, which
until now is only an increase in some taxes and some fees
and an enormous liquefaction of our income,” reflected the senator who pointed out that, in his opinion, this situation “particularly affects the middle and middle class.” low".

“You have had an excessive increase in all prices that means that if before you reached 30, now you reach 20, if you reached 20 you now reach 10 and, if not, you don't get anywhere,” he noted.
He maintained, in turn, that “a very great anguish is being generated
. ”
“I am afraid that this will become something irreversible, which is dollarization,”
he stated.
“Now there is also a freeze on prices, public salaries, public spending, and education spending.
Is that an economic plan?
For me, it is not an economic plan," he added.
For Lousteau, the “only thing” that Milei did in economic matters was “let inflation, which is extremely high, do the dirty work of lowering spending.”
And he closed on the matter: “Is it a definitive loss?
No, it's a cover."
