In the middle of the speech of the candidate for president of Together for Change (JxC) Patricia Bullrich at the colloquium of Institute for Business Development of Argentina (IDEA)the libertarian leader Javier Milei organized at the same time a countersummit in meters, at the Furia restaurant, where 80 businessmen attended who were looking to return to the hotel as soon as possible Sheraton in Mar del Plata, where the corporate event takes place.
In this context, an executive from a relevant hydrocarbons company stated: “We stay at IDEA because we see that Javier Milei It is a kind of provocation, not with us in particular, but a way to campaign”.
Although, according to the statements of Milei in C5N “There have been more than 500 or 600 requests from people who were in IDEA and they want to come here, but since there is a problem of physical restriction here, they have to stay there, because they have no better alternative.
“They all want to come here, they are left there (at the IDEA colloquium) to discard. I don’t think that Juan (Napoli) has raised it as a countersummit, It was a total coincidence because we agreed on this in June.“, answered Milei when asked about the start time of your event with the bullrich summit.
What did Bullrich say at IDEA?
The JxC presidential candidate He began his speech by confirming that he will eliminate exchange restrictions if he reaches Rivadavia’s seat: “We are clear that we have to immediately remove the stockswe have to ensure that no third or fourth line official shuts you down. exports. It is ‘forbidden to prohibit‘”.
In addition, he proposed reforming the statute of the central bank to prohibit the monetary issue and the stocksmodify the system co-participating funds and chicaned Sergio Massa: “We came to the Government, we invited Massa to Davos and six months later he introduced us with an anti-dismissal law. Anything more anti-capitalist than a law prohibiting dismissals? The truth is that we took him to Davos and he didn’t learn much,” he pointed out and then took the opportunity to criticize the Government’s economic policy.
What did Milei say at the counter-summit?
In parallel to the IDEA colloquium, Javier Milei had a lunch with businessmen, in which the candidate for president with the most votes in the PASSED assured that “The higher the dollar, the easier it is to dollarize“. Furthermore, he noted that “eliminating the Central Bank is an immovable policy”.
Milei decided to miss the IDEA colloquium, which could be assumed to be part of his strategy, where the most important thing is what is left silent. At the same time, the absence of proposals for concrete measures, of an economic and financial program, seems to guide the “market” to a hedging strategy.
“Some companies dollarize ahead of time just in case and because there are many weights that they had not only in cash, but also in fixed-term and investment funds. As the election approaches, Milei’s emptiness pushes these types of decisions and those decisions and that effect are good for him, they bring him closer to the possibility of dollarizing,” said another businessman.
