Sergio Massa spoke about Milei’s government: “We are going to see a deterioration in the quality of life”

At the closing of the Congress of the Renovation Front, where Diego Giuliano was announced as the new president of the party, the former presidential candidate of Union for the Fatherland, Sergio Massa, gave a speech that, although it was not public, an audio of it was broadcast. In his words, which were shared by C5N, he referred to the impact of the measures imposed in the first 100 days of Javier Milei’s government and explained that “the mistake is to stand with the finger of blame and pretend to tell people that they made a mistake when voting”. In addition, he pointed out that “people are not wrong, in any case they are scammed. The problem is the damage that we all know society is going to experience, the loss of jobs, the closure of small and medium-sized companies, the fall in export competitiveness of our productive sector.” In this sense, he remarked that the country will have “a very great degradation of income, a process of destruction of industrial installed capacity and small and medium-sized enterprises” and that “we are going to see a deterioration in the quality of life.” “We noticed the problems that the elimination of the transport subsidy was going to bring, what it meant in his life in terms of indirect salary. They’re going to pay it at the end of March and in April,” he added. In view of this, he sent a message to the leaders of his own space: “Get ready, those who are mayors, to have your municipalities behind you to help those neighbors who are not going to be able to pay for electricity and I don’t even tell you if the increase in gas is confirmed.” On the other hand, he made it clear that the role of the Renovation Front “is not to speak but to listen” and called for a self-criticism of the past. “There is no one to spare, we lack many who think like us and have to break their prejudices and we have to go find them for the hug and to build the new majority that will allow us to return to government in four years,” he said. We lost the vote in the agricultural sector, despite promoting the value-added chain for the sector because we don’t know how to count it or embrace it, and yet we didn’t have a single tractor drive because when the drought began we threw ourselves on top of the producers, with the emergency, transfers, subsidies and suspension of tax collection. However, we didn’t know how to tell it, we almost did it with shame,” he concluded.
