“The privileged caste lives as if they were monarchs, there is a vulgarity of waste, a conscious and planned scheme,” the president has reproached, emphasizing that “Argentina woke up a little more than three months ago,” when “a silent majority, which is made up of those who work and produce, raised their voices.
In his speech, collected by the Télam agency, the leader of the Argentine Executive has charged against “the previous policy”, criticizing that “the last 20 years have been an economic disaster, with an orgy of public spending, uncontrolled emissions and the worst inheritance that a Government has received.
«We receive a State that does everything and does everything wrong. The more the State is present, the greater the waste and the less well-being for good Argentines,” said Milei, who has defined the State as “a criminal association designed so that behind each procedure there is a bribe for the politician in office.”
“Peronist leaders like Sergio Massa, Juan Grabois, Máximo Kirchner and Pablo Moyano are riders of failure and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner was responsible for one of the worst governments in history,” he added.
In this regard, the president recalled that he has “the support of millions of Argentines who want real change” and has highlighted that he has “carried out the most ambitious program in living memory, through which the the fiscal deficit and a cut of five points of GDP was made in public spending.

«A president who may not have (parliamentary) majorities or governors but knows what he has to do and has the conviction to do it (…). I ask Argentines for patience and trust. We are on the right path. Long live freedom, “Milei concluded and Télam took it up, whose closure was also announced by the president in his speech.
«A CLEAR, FIRM AND COURAGEOUS MESSAGE»
