President Javier Milei will record this afternoon at 4 p.m. in the Casa Rosada the message with economic announcements that will be broadcast tonight starting at 9 p.m. on the national network. There he will announce the fiscal surplus that was achieved in the first quarter of the year.
He will be accompanied by a large part of the economic team headed by the Minister of Economy, Luis “Toto” Caputo. There will also be the Secretary of Finance, Pablo Quirno, some of the members of his advisory council , which is headed by Demian Reidel, and the president of the Central Bank, Santiago Bausili .
He will use the national channel because “ fiscal balance is the flagship of this administration ,” acknowledged a person close to the head of state who talks with him daily. “He is convinced that this economic achievement deserves to be done this way,” said the same source in Balcarce 50 this afternoon.
The content of the message would not exceed 20 minutes. Milei will provide signals of compliance with fiscal objectives with the International Monetary Fund until March. At the Quinta de Olivos, she dedicated this morning to diagramming the final touches to her speech with her small table, made up of her sister Della Karina Milei , Secretary General of the Presidency, and her advisor Della Santiago Caputo .
The President had already anticipated the decision to head a national channel on Friday of last week, when he was in charge of closing the Llao Llao Forum before a group of businessmen, to whom he demanded, in a strong speech, that they "put the balls and invest.”
“Many of those who criticize us for the quality of the adjustment said that making an adjustment of more than one point of GDP was impossible. And we aimed to have zero deficit in 2024. And we did it with so much conviction that obviously, it had a blender and it had a chainsaw,” he noted in another section of his exhibition in Bariloche.
Three of the officials who will be accompanying Milei in the message - Caputo, Quirno and Bausili - recently returned from Washington, United States, where they held different meetings with representatives of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the US Treasury.
The Chief of Staff, Nicolás 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.
The Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, stayed in the United States all last week with members of his team and met with the IMF and the Treasury authorities of that country.
This morning, in his daily press conference, the presidential spokesperson, Manuel Adorni, highlighted the “positive expectations” about Argentina's direction expressed by the authorities of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the United States Treasury Department. “These signals are part of our new positioning in politics and the world economy,” he stressed.
In radio statements, the Minister of the Interior, Guillermo Francos, had expressed himself in the same sense . The idea, according to the official, is to “communicate to the people what they have been doing until now, the results and the perspectives.”
“The president usually communicates through the networks, and an institutional discourse in this instance is very important so that the population is able to observe the results,” he said.
It will be the third time that Milei will have access to the national network, beyond the official broadcasts on December 10 when he took office and on March 1 when he spoke before the Legislative Assembly at the opening of sessions of the National Congress.
The president used it on December 20 to announce the mega DNU 70 and also on April 2, at the event in Plaza San Martín, when tribute was paid to those who fell in the Malvinas war.
