The President will once again make a national chain
In the last hours of this Sunday, the final details of the national network that will be headed by President Javier Milei were finalized to confirm that the Government once again reached the fiscal surplus in March and to provide details of the course of the economy.
According to what official sources told Infobae , the national leader will be accompanied by the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo , the Secretary of Finance, Pablo Quirno , and the head of the Central Bank, Santiago Bausili .
Starting at 9:00 p.m. this Monday, a brief message will be broadcast that will be recorded at the Quinta de Olivos and in which the head of state and his officials will give details about the trade balance and updated inflation data, among others. issues.
In this way, Milei will once again defend the economic program that it is carrying out and will also do so in the prelude to the start of the discussion of the new Bases Law in the plenary session of commissions of the Chamber of Deputies.
The President had already anticipated the decision to head a national channel days ago, when he was in charge of closing the Llao Llao Forum before a group of businessmen, to whom he demanded, in a strong speech, to "get their balls together and invest." .

“And I am going to let you know that on the 22nd we will be creating a national network, where we will also be announcing the fiscal numbers and I will let you know that the first quarter of the year ended with a positive financial result ,” he said.
Indeed, in the last month, the trade balance indicated that the Government once again reached the twin surpluses with a cumulative surplus of more than USD 2,000 million, making it the first administration in more than 16 years to achieve this.
According to various sources, no specific measures would be announced on the national network this Monday, but only details of the direction of the economic program would be communicated.
In fact, the three officials who will be accompanying Milei in the message recently returned from Washington, United States, where they met with representatives of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Treasury of that country.
The Chief of Staff, Nicolas Posse , also participated in that trip ; the vice president of the Central Bank, Vladimir Werning , and the Argentine representative before the multilateral credit organization, Leonardo Madcur .
In one of the work days, the officials held a meeting with the Deputy Managing Director of the IMF, Gita Gopinath , with whom they talked about the progress of the reforms that are being carried out in Argentina, the macroeconomic situation and the policies it carries out. forward this management.

Additionally, they met with the Under Secretary for International Affairs of the United States Department of the Treasury, Jay Shambaugh ; with Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Western Hemisphere, Michael Kaplan ; the Assistant Secretary of International Finance, Brent Neiman , and representatives of the North American Treasury.
In parallel, the managing director of the IMF, Kristalina Georgieva , praised Milei's plan: “It is moving very quickly towards tightening fiscal spending, gaining the ability of private investment to find a better return. Inflation is coming down a little faster than we initially expected,” she highlighted.
In this context, the President will lead the national network, which will be recorded in Olivos shortly before its broadcast, to once again defend his economic program and show international support, four months before the start of his administration.
“We are not willing to take any risks. This is our last dance, our last chance. And we are not here to take risks that are not necessary, because we know if we continue doing the right things it may take a little longer, but the country will eventually get out of this mess. And we will begin to grow and it will become a virtuous circle,” Caputo told Infobae .
