“Against all the forecasts of professional analysts and politiciansthey believed that we were only going to last a couple of months and that we were not qualified to govern. They had to throw away all their manuals“, the president boasted to militants of Gioventù Nazionale, the youth band of Meloni’s Fratelli d’Italia.
“I am an economist, I am not a politician. In fact, I always despised politicians for the damage they did to my country,” Milei introduced herself. This “disruptive” character was claimed by him in different parts of the speech.
