This Saturday afternoon, former president Cristina Kirchner led the inauguration ceremony of the Néstor Kirchner Sports Center together with the mayor of that town, Mayra Mendoza. The meeting took place within the framework of an internal that Peronism made public weeks ago and that has its epicenter in the province of Buenos Aires. There, the Peronist leader targeted the leaders of her space who expressed their criticism in the media and criticized the economic policy carried out by Javier Milei.


Below are the most notable phrases:

  • When I heard, for example, congratulations on the public surplus of the first quarter, it turns out that you did not pay the camesa for energy, you did not pay for public works, you did not pay what you owe to the provinces, you did not pay what you owe to the universities. It's like you in your house, after not having paid for electricity, gas, water, bills for utilities (gas, electricity etc.), rent, the woman who works and the babysitter say I have a surplus. No, brother, you don't have a surplus. It isn't true. It isn't true. Look at everything you must overcome and from where. No, you don't have a surplus. This surplus has no basis and also raises the fiscal deficit.


Cristina Kirchner's speech in Quilmes
  • In the six years that there was a fiscal surplus in this country, Néstor Kirchner governed and in 2008 who is speaking to you? Yes, gentlemen, let's see. Fiscal surplus 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008. And what happened in 2008? And the world fell. Global crisis on a global scale could not be sustained and later, two years later, the energy balance of a surplus of more than 4 billion dollars in energy exports was reversed. We now have to import for the same amount. This was the issue of why we had a deficit. And it's not that we are defending the deficit.
  • Brother, sister, 60% of the votes may have voted for you, but if later when you are in government people starve, lose their jobs, unemployment increases, cannot make ends meet, what's the point? This is very clear. That 22% was so legitimized that Néstor left with a 70% positive image when he finished.
  • No matter how much the President gets angry and makes funny faces and mockery and all those things, he has no stabilization plan. Look how I tell you, he has no stabilization plan. That the previous government did have, which was a convertibility also sustained by the sale of national assets and debt.
  • It is tremendous that the salary is not enough today and it was not even enough during our government, which was the problem we had. And it is ugly and it is bad, but worse than not having enough salary is not having a salary at the end of the month. This is the great drama that is going to come and that the President must understand. The President has to understand that he must give a direction to this policy . This is that the market has no flaws. Everything must be left without deregulation. What happened to prepaid? He had to pick up the line and go back and it didn't solve anything because what he should have done.

  • When Néstor became President, the misery of this country was such that no one had a prepaid phone. Those who had money had prepaid, nothing more. By 2011, a lot of the middle class had already fought and they were able to contract prepaid. Then they forget and become anti-Peronist, anti-Kirchnerist. But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. We love them the same, we love them the same. We will always love them.
  • I want you to know, President, that if they want to turn Argentina back into a country where all its wealth is extracted, where there are no industries, where they want to put us in a sort of elimination of the entire middle class. Well, look. There I'm going to declare myself. Avatar. Light blue and blue, men and women in light blue and blue like the flag to defend the Homeland. Not to us in the colony again, avatars. Not again. Cologne. Not again.
  • In school the truth is that we have to rediscuss all that, especially primary and especially secondary school. Maybe I wanted to start a discussion back in 2012 and they threw me out. You remember that message from March 1 where I was very criticized, but we guys have to talk because if we don't talk about it, they come and give you the things that come to you. The president talks about indoctrination in schools and if we had indoctrinated in schools, he would not be president. But what is this man saying? What is this man saying?


Cristina Kirchner's speech in Quilmes
  • I dare say that if we had a public primary and secondary education like the one I had....I had class every day. That doesn't work, that isn't enough. But they don't know how it helps, they don't know how it helps. I think we need to start discussing these things. The other day I was listening to the governor, I think it was from Santa Fe, who said when he took over that he had a problem because he had 23, 25% of the resources that he allocated to teacher salaries, to the teaching sector that was paying and that was not They attended for substitutes, for licenses, for what we have to discuss seriously. Because resources are scarce and we have to make them count.
  • What do I want to ask today, this afternoon from leaders, militants, neighbors, citizens, compatriots? You have to study, you have to train, you have to go out and discuss these things, not nonsense, these things that are what interest people, that are what change people's lives. They are discussing to see how they change the lives of the leaders. We have to start working and discussing to change people's lives. To improve we need to form common sense and information.
