Days after a $500,000 bonus for workers who are in the line of fire of the Garrahan Hospital caused a political earthquake within the libertarian administration and in hours when an official was literally fired for buying a coffee makerÁmbito had access to photographic material of the day of celebration that took place this Sunday in the luxurious three-story residence of Consul Pablo Piñeiro Aramburu, for which the State pays thousands of dollars.
Two sources from the diplomatic corps assured that the meeting had no commercial purposes and classified it as “recreational.” They denounced that this expense and other superfluous expenses are met with the “petty cash”, which in the case of consulates and especially that of New York because it is one of the most relevant, is several thousand dollars.
The situation of this sector of diplomats is well above the rest of the public sector workers, They charge figures greater than 10,000 dollars free of expenses because they have privileges such as residence paid for by the State, domestic staff and chef.
The official also has a personal driver, another luxury that has existed for many years but that Javier Milei’s administration in this case did not cut back.. In fact, one of Piñeiro Aramburu’s first actions on American soil was precisely to find a driver with a publication on social networks.
All this collides squarely with the discourse of maximum austerity promoted by the Casa Rosada. Far from being warned, the political person responsible for the matter, the now former ambassador to the United States Gerardo Werthein, was awarded the position of chancellor, after the resounding departure of economist Diana Mondino.
According to diplomatic sources, the halloween celebration Other officials also participated, such as the person in charge of the cultural area of the consulate Noelia Dutrey, the agency’s prosecutor Natalia Tenaglia, friends and spouses. But business, nothing.
In fact, in the United States they explain that this area is “virtually stopped” because the person in charge Nelson Martin is on “forced vacation” by an internal one that includes complaints of mistreatment of personnel of the force.
The mismanagement at the embassy are not the only chiaroscuros of Werthein’s appointment. The most experienced of the San Martín Palace remember that during the pandemic the chancellor added to the list of businessmen who moved their tax residence to Uruguay so as not to pay taxes in the country.
Coincidentally, He decided to return to settle in Argentina when Javier Milei won the elections. He was lucky that days later the Government, in the midst of the socioeconomic crisis that brought poverty to 52.9%, reduced the Personal Property Tax and was especially generous with those who had their assets outside the country.
The Yesterday, the President’s Office announced the launch of an “audit” in the Foreign Ministry with the aim of identifying drivers of agendas contrary to those of Javier Milei. If austerity is a core value for libertarians: Where will they start?
