Later, Milei went to the Casa Rosada, the headquarters of the Argentine Government, to send a message to the nation:
“Today a new era begins in Argentina. Today we end a long history of decadence and decline, and begin the path of rebuilding our country. Argentines have forcefully expressed a will for change that has no return, there is no turning back.

“Today we bury decades of failure, meaningless fights and disputes, fights that have only managed to destroy our beloved country and leave us in ruin. Today begins a new era in Argentina, an era of peace and prosperity, of growth and development, of freedom and progress,” he said.
