One day after returning from his tour that took him to Israel, Italy and the Vatican, Javier Milei spoke and responded to Cristina Kirchner, who this Tuesday published a document on current economic events in which she treated the President as a "showman."
"New times require a bit of a show," the president replied.
"Cristina ignores some basic economics issues.
As much as she doesn't like it, inflation is a monetary phenomenon," Milei refuted on the level that is her specialty. However, she was not confrontational with the Kirchnerist reference. "Cristina's letter is intellectually honest, but she adheres to one thing which is rubbish," he said.
For Milei, "people are understanding" the economic program.
"Because it is the first time in history that someone campaigned saying that there was going to be adjustment," she noted.
"I'm going to say something else, to try to help Cristina or the trunks she has of economists who speak to her," he continued in an interview with LN+.
"Argentina started the 20th century being the richest country in the world, today it is 140. Something happened wrong here. Of the last 123 years, Argentina had a fiscal deficit in 113. From 1900 until today it had 22 crises, 20 had a fiscal origin. What Is that the part you don't understand?" he asked himself.
The report took place in the President's office in Casa Rosada and was recorded during the afternoon.
It was the first interview he gave to an Argentine media so far this year.
He was scheduled to provide a report to Susana Giménez at the end of January, which was finally suspended due to the host's personal problems.
During his stay in Italy, he was interviewed by the
Quarta Republica
program , which is broadcast by journalist Nicola Porro, host of the Quarta Reppublica program and deputy director of the newspaper Il Giornale, both owned by Mediaset, the media conglomerate headed by former Prime Minister Silvio. Berlusconi.
