In the middle of the jump of the dollar that this Thursday reached $ 1,380, the president Javier Milei He showed himself with the Minister of Economy Luis Caputo and the head of the BCRA, Santiago Bausili and denied tensions in the economic team for the movement of the currency.
Milei and Caputo rejected a message that went viral on social networks that gave an account of a fist fight between them Casa Rosada. The Minister of Economy responded with laughter after being consulted by the conflict, implying that the relationship was fine, without any problem. “Are you fucking me?”, said Milei With a laugh when listening to the consultation.
“Javi called me to tell me ‘Can you believe they are saying we fight?'”the minister said. “The journalists asked me if they had taken me in ambulance from Casa Rosada,” said the president.
A gesture that did not go unnoticed is that the meeting – which was held in the streaming neura – was delayed because Caputo and Bausili were waited that attended another interview where they minimized the abrupt movement of the dollar. There was a need to show the United Team.
“We knew ourselves very much, we are a united recontra group and we have symbiosis. It’s a brotherhood and it’s funny when they say such a thing“The Minister of Economy launched before Milei’s watchful eye.
Milei defended the economic course and accused sectors of seeking to destabilize
During the interview, Milei directly pointed to political and economic sectors that, according to him, seek to destabilize the Government in a context of economic improvement. “We knew that being an electoral year, as the economy growing strong, with real wages flying and with poverty falling, It was obvious that they were going to hurt us. We prepare for this, it does not surprise us. They were looking to break, is the only thing they have”Said the president.
In another passage, Milei He ratified the economic course and defended the zero emission policy. He explained that the monetary scheme adopted since the end of 2023 continues in a purification phase: “The economy was recovering since April and GDP rose. That generated a Excess demand for money forward. The day the monetary surplus has to go to deflation. If you don’t have the structure to go to an economy with deflation, there is a problem”
He justified that no immediate structural reforms were implemented to accompany this process: “We could not change the structure of the economy at that time to absorb deflation. Then, while the Money overhanglook that we do not emit, and There is still inflation because we are still cleaning the reason Massa did”In that line, he said that “Inflation ends at the middle of next year, that two years have passed since we changed to the zero emission monetary scheme.”
He also pointed against the financial system for the role he had during the previous management: “We had 15 consolidated deficit points. The banks were partners of the state in the lord. The year 2023 was the best for banks: they took money from the deposits and lent them to BCRA They did not work on banks. They were accomplices of the scam to all Argentines. Now they have to work on banks. ”
The president pointed out that while carrying out this operation and “armed a bag of liquidity”, “La Traitor”, referring to vice president Victoria Villarruel “gave rise to a illegal session to break the fiscal balance. That generated noise and He enabled a runa speculative attack, “he explained about the abrupt rise in the dollar of the last weeks.
“In that context, they hit you the first political blow to generate instability in the demand for money. The point is that that is when the currency attacks you. As we had set the amount of money, the rate went to the clouds. They expected us We release liquidity and they embocked us with the exchange rate. We said “Not in fart“. The rate went to the ass of the world and the exchange rate made him climb to $ 1,350 “, He added.
In this context, he also warned that another “attack” that the government received in recent days that contributed to instability was in the hands of the Nobel Prize in Economics, Joseph Stiglitzwho warned this Sunday that Argentina was heading towards another crisis. “The other attack, knowing that the end of the month was, that the closing was closed with the background and you have to be doing tenders and others, they send Stiglitz’s unclean garbage to proclaim the apocalypse. Today, that we had closing of positions, they make you jump the return change rate,” he launched.
“We knew that the ‘Kukas’ were going to do this, so we said we are going to reinforce monetary policy. We enter the election year by pressing fiscal policy and monetary policy, ”he said.
Javier Milei predicted that in 2027 it will be reelected and explained the operation of the government
Subsequently, and almost as an early campaign statement, Milei left a phrase that did not go unnoticed: “In 2027 I will be reelected.”
In turn, he sought to leave behind the versions of internal crisis and explained: “Work hyperactively with 6 of the 8 ministries. The operation of the operation of the Government. There is a Political iron triangle now: Santiago Caputo as a strategist, my sister as shipowner and Franks as the policy of linking with the rest of the policy. They only upload things that need my finger. I am 100% avocado to the management “.
In this regard, he said: “That has a long term and situation. The long term, which has to do with the reforms that come, and that is the entire battery of things that appear from December 11, it has 3 central elements: One that are increasing yields, which is the whole issue of deregulation, which is Sturzenegger. There the human capital plays a fundamental role of Pettovello. The other fundamental element is foreign relations and there is Werthein”
