Javier Milei responded to Alberto Fernández: “Nothing will be able to avoid the beating that we are going to give them at the polls”

The presidential candidate for La Libertad Avanza, Javier Milei, gave a press conference today in which he said that “they are trying to dirty the electoral process and even ban” his candidacy, in response to the complaint filed against him filed by President Alberto Fernández. ” I tell President Fernández and Vice President (Cristina) Kirchner and the acting President, the Minister of Economy (Sergio) Massa, that nothing will be able to avoid the beating that we are going to give them at the polls,” Milei predicted during a press conference in response to the current president’s complaint for “public intimidation.” The head of state considered the discrediting of the national currency by Milei caused “fear” in the citizenship and favored the development of a bank “run” in recent days. The libertarian candidate (in the conference held at the offices of the Bull Market company of Ramiro Marra, the candidate for head of the Buenos Aires Government of LLA) also considered that the government “is trying to dirty the electoral process and even proscribe the political force that obtained more votes in the PASO,” and assured that “hyperinflation has nothing to do with us.” They keep throwing naphtha into the fire, what did they think was going to happen with the ‘platita plan’?” he asked. And he responded to the complaint by assuring that “it is a scoundrel to hold the only political force that proposes change responsible for the bank run.” To deepen, the current national deputy said: “We will not accept under any point of view that the Government intends to dissociate itself from the responsibility it has in the economic collapse that they are causing with the measures they themselves took.” “Am I responsible for the fiscal deficit, the monetary issue, the taking of debt, the sterilization with Leliqs, each of the regulations that are destroying the productive system, the stocks?” asked Milei.On the end of his speech, the candidate for president remarked: “In a context of hyperinflation like the one we are experiencing, To tell Argentines to stay in pesos is to condemn them to absolute poverty, it is to destroy their savings.”
