The president Javier Milei admitted that could extend the 2023 Budget again if Congress does not approve the project for 2025 that he sent. Also stood out the achievements of his government and assured that “people are much better off”
“If Congress does not remove it, it will be extended. I will do it with what I have at hand,” He stated about the 2025 Budget project that he sent more than two months ago. At the same time, He did not talk about the possibility of calling extraordinary sessions to discuss it.
The president blamed the opposition and the governors for not having discussed it in Congress. “They spent two and a half months discussing it and they didn’t bring it up. What are they doing?” he accused in an interview given to Radio El Observador.
“We sent it. I took the trouble to go to Congress and present it, explain the budget methodology so that there is zero deficit. And what do they do? “Everything was fine and three days before they let go with a game that implied a fiscal deficit of 3 points of GDP.”explained the President.
The social situation “is much better”
The economic situation of families was one of the topics the president spoke about. According to him, “people are much better” but “there are journalists, businessmen, economists” who “refuse to see the results.”
“The previous government that cared so much about the poor covered 50% of the basic food basket. Today we cover 100% with the Food Card and the Universal Child Allowance,” the president assured. Added to this was having removed “the intermediaries from the middle”, in reference to social organizations. This implies, in their calculations, that the beneficiaries are charging double.
With these data, the President maintained that the social situation has improved, although there are opponents who deny it. “People are much better but there are journalists, businessmen, economists who are in a microclimate and refuse to see the results and cannot accept that they were wrong,” said the president. However, he dismissed these criticisms.: “I can’t fight with everyone.”
Javier Milei assured that the Senate session where Kueider was expelled is “invalid”
From Italy, where he traveled to receive the award international Milton Friedman 2024the Argentine president gave his opinion on the controversial Senate session to expel Kueider and reported: “What I can notify and verify is that Dr. Villarruel was notified. She receives the GDE where she is informed that I am going to be traveling on Tuesday. I mean, she receives it 48 hours before the session,” he stated.
“In fact, the nation’s notary general interacted with Dr. Villarruel’s secretary, so the secretary was also notified. On the same day that Manuel Adorni himself traveled, he confirmed that I was traveling to Italy, around 12/12:30“added the President.

After recounting his point of view of the situation, the libertarian leader assured that “the session is invalid“. Regarding the actions of his running mate, the top president assured: “You cannot do what he did, because Argentina has a republican system. This is how the counterweight system works. The moment I go on a trip, acephalia automatically occurs, then it is the responsibility of the Executive. If he presides over the session of Congress, He is working in the legislative branch, but at the same time he is President of the Nation and that violates the division of powers”.
However, he also assured that the Upper House could do it again since due to “the numbers, It is clear that we all love the Kueiders of life outside“. In this sense, Milei pointed directly against Kirchnerism and, despite agreeing with the expulsion, assured that this political sector has a “inconsistency problem“. “They take this man out, which seems good to me, And why not Parrilli?“, accused the President.
“It bothers me that there are jets within politics. We need to kick everyone in the ass”, he stated.
