“The brake starts this Sunday”

With its popularity in free fall, surrounded by several cases of corruption and facing a completely divided Argentina, Javier Milei plays it in the legislative elections this Sunday. And all while Peronism already anticipates the fall of the president and Donald Trump interferes in the elections with a bailout of 20,000 million only if Milei wins.

“The stop to Milei begins this Sunday, but the task continues the next day to think about how to get Argentina out of the disaster that this Government is going to leave behind. This October 26 is Milei and the permanent adjustment or Argentina, our common home,” former Argentine president Cristina Fernández stated this Thursday.

In a message recorded from his home in Buenos Aires where he is fulfilling a six years in prison Due to irregularities in the granting of works during her mandate, Fernández de Kirchner has asked to vote for Peronism to put a “brake” on the Government of Javier Milei by going to vote en masse in the “decisive” legislative elections this Sunday.

Fernández affirms that these elections are not only an election of deputies and senators but also “a great democratic opportunity” to “put a limit on Milei’s misgovernment.”

“The libertarian experiment failed and everyone knows it. “People don’t make ends meet, they have to go into debt to pay for electricity, buy food or medicine,” he added.

The former president also criticized the Government for having changed the voting instrument “without proper training, putting transparency at risk”, in reference to the introduction of the Single Paper Ballot, which includes all candidates, positions, and political parties on the same ballot.

Agreement with Trump

Fernández also pointed out against the financial aid signed this week with the United States Government, days after the American president, Donald Trump, provided his political and electoral support to Milei: “Argentina is a country that is too big and dignified to depend on the humor of a foreign president.”. “Argentine sovereignty is not negotiated, it belongs to its people.”

“Milei got tired of repeating in public that it was the best government in history with the most successful economic plan, but he ended up begging for a bailout in the United States. A bailout that has nothing of a solution and everything of humiliation,” he added, and described Trump as “Milei’s main supporter and in practice his campaign manager.”

On the other hand, he alluded to the recent statements by the US president about the magnitude of the economic crisis facing Argentina and stressed: “The reality is so strong that it can be heard and seen from the United States and I think also from anywhere in the world.”
