He also criticized the woke culture following this Sunday’s attack in Australia and spoke about the government’s economic turnaround.
Milei came in with her theme song, Panic showfrom La Renga, and opened his speech with a reference to the attack in Australia this Sunday, about which he said: “I would like to express my solidarity with the Jewish community in Argentina and in the world, in a context in which anti-Semitism finds increasingly divergent expressions. This threat goes beyond the Jewish people as it is an affront to freedom itself. “They are murderers who are willing to kill in cold blood over differences.”
Then he gave up Congratulations to José Antonio Kastright-wing presidential candidate of Chile who won this Sunday’s elections. In this context, he emphasized that today the neighboring country “is experiencing a new era” and added: “It is a sign that South America has awakened and has begun to turn inevitably towards the ideas of freedom.far from the catastrophe of 21st century socialism.”
In this sense, the president highlighted the advance of the right in the region and compared the situation in Chile to that in Argentina when he took power two years ago. He questioned the management of Alberto Fernández and his predecessors, stating: “They believed they were so intelligent and so creative that they thought they could beat reality itself, biased by their fatal arrogance. They believed that unbridled public spending, financed by monetary issues or debt placed in the service of stimulating consumption, was a way to hack the system and create a wealth creation machine as if life were a Sims game.”
“A liberal government strives to level the playing field and respect natural rights. Then let the individual act. Anyone who speaks on the microphone is corrupt, they are lobbying.” This is an honest government“The president continued.
Milei questioned the policies of previous governments, assuring that they had implemented the “welfare state”, which consists of using other people’s money for third parties, stating: “It cannot work because the politician does not feel the costs that the private sector bears, nor does he know what he wants. He will always get it wrong.” Therefore, the best policy for a government is to shrink the size of the state. We reduced the consolidated budget deficit from 15 GDP points to 0 and reduced the tax by 2.5 GDP points. And we will continue on this path.” There he took a break from his speech and mentioned Luis Caputo, who was in the audience, calling him “the best economy minister in history.”
