deputy Miguel Angel Pichito He referred to the meeting he held with him Barry Bennettan advisor to Donald Trump, organized it Santiago Caputo In which Christian Ritondo and Rodrigo de Loredo also participated. The former candidate for vice president confirmed that the North American advisor did not ask the parliamentarians to accompany the government of Javier Miley in the meeting, but rather that She stated that the Republican administration would intervene in the Argentine market.
“There is nothing to mention, he did not say much. He did not say that the opposition would accompany the government, but rather he said that the United States would help Argentina and they would intervene and buy the peso on the market. He had advantageous information from an economic point of view Because he mentioned that there would be intervention, and today there are American banks buying bonds and pesos. Then we asked about the political framework. “But there is nothing relevant,” said Bechetto in an interview with Senital.
The meeting took place weeks ago, on the eve of the midterm elections, and the meeting was linked to the Trump administration’s attempt to push the dialogue-oriented opposition blocs to support the government so that it wins at the ballot boxes. A few days ago, the North American president himself said that he would not be “very generous” with Argentina if Miley did not win.
Bennett, who has very close relations with Santiago Caputo, is one of the champions of the dialogue channel between the Argentine and American governments. At the end of September, he even met with Javier Miley before the central bank sacrificed reserves for the second round in a row, and the government promised to sell “every last dollar” to contain the banding scheme drawn up by Economy Minister Luis Caputo.
The role of cameras and the impact of elections
Among other topics, Pichito spoke about the dialogue conducted by the government with the opposition blocs in the two chambers, and pointed to this Implementing constitutional reform is not a bad idea. “What happens is that you need a much broader political consensus,” he declared. “The 1994 reform involved declaring necessity by a two-thirds majority in each chamber, and then there was a social consensus within an era in which social democracy had permeated policy ideas.”
He also stressed that the government lacks clarifications in both chambers about the measures being taken and that officials are open to questions from members of Congress. Meanwhile, He directly targeted the Economy Minister for not going to Congress and asserted that he has “caste disdain.”“: “He thinks there are bad, useless black people.. He did not go, and the only duty he has before the two councils is to go and present the budget. They don’t explain anything to you. No one asks, they like to review the past.
He also pointed to a photo that came to light some time ago Santiago Caputowhich features a book by former Chief of Staff Mauricio Macri, Marcos Pena, As a result of the fallout, Bechetto endorsed the presidential advisor: “It’s not bad. There had to be two knives in that book, not one. It’s a guilty version. Politics is not for psychoanalysis or to make claims of guilt, this is a Judeo-Christian problem.”
Finally, the MP emphasized that the division of elections in the province of Buenos Aires was harmful to Peronism, detailing: “The result and the integrity of the Chamber of Deputies were set in stone. It was undoubtedly a mistake and affected (Peronism) because there was not the same strong political and institutional activity with the municipalities. In addition, there was a list structure in which many important regions did not have representation.”
