The former President of Spain José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero assured that the Argentine head of state, Alberto Fernández, is seen “with important respect” in the international community for what he has so far demonstrated in his seven months at the helm of the Casa Rosada, and stressed that “Represents the great hope for Latin America”.
“It is very difficult that in an economic and debt crisis like the one Alberto Fernández assumed, to which the crisis due to the coronavirus pandemic was immediately added, he has the credibility he has and generates the credibility that it generates. And what citizens value the most is because he is an honest, authentic and coherent man”, Praised the leader of the Spanish Socialist Workers Party (PSOE).
“What I am most happy about is that this is the perception that is in the international political community”, this is how “the progressive government of Spain sees it, and it also enjoys significant respect in the United States, because it not only represents the great hope for Latin America and that global relationship, “said the former president.

In this sense, he said that one of the poles with which the role of “the Latin American progressives of this 21st century” could be measured is “for the commitment they have in favor of regional integration.” And he placed the Argentine president among the main ones.

“One can be liberal or conservative, what one cannot deny is that the construction called the State and public services are the last and great guarantee of a society that wants to be called that ”, he defined.
“It should not be an excessive reproach to us that there are center-right governments intervening companies and helping with majority injections of capital, like Germany to Lufthansa“He exemplified.
He also spoke in favor of the creation of a tax on large fortunes, a measure that was applied in an extraordinary way in some countries to cover part of the expenses of the health systems saturated by the coronavirus pandemic, and whose debate in Argentina is postponed.

Furthermore, he referred to the need to “build a global community” that it not only interact in terms of international trade.
