the vice president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner This Thursday he led an act in Plaza de Mayo for the 20th anniversary of the presidential inauguration of Néstor Kirchner. Here are their main definitions:
– The country that Néstor received came from a great crisis in 2001. In these times that there is so much talk regarding the State, that a tiny State is necessary, that does not bother, that allows Argentines to live in peace. I want to tell you that when he arrived, the State was very small (…) but the debt was very large. In that State, YPF had been privatized, it was a Spanish company just like Aerolíneas Argentinas. Nor was the Post Office, which had also been privatized. The Anses did not exist either, because when he arrived in Argentina a few were retiring.
– But then, if everything was in the hands of private individuals, of good administrators, why did Argentina owe so much money? For a very simple reason, because they had contracted external debt, because they had nationalized it in 1982, because they continued throughout the 1990s to sustain the false dollarization by indebting the country. This is the story and the day that false dollarization fell, the country fell. This square is witness to our joys but it is also the witness of ugly memories of the Argentines.
– The homeland must be taken without the benefit of inventorythe homeland must be understood and loved completely.
– Kirchner was a simple lawyer like me but it was the kukas who paid the fixed-term deposits with the Boden 12the bonus that was given to each one of those who were not there when they went to get the dollars and pesos from the banks.
– Kirchner restructured the debt once morest all odds, achieving the largest capital and interest reduction in memory.
– When the comrade became president of the Republic, the gross product of this country was 164,000 million dollars. When his partner handed over the government on December 10, 2015, the gross product was 647,000 million dollars. Over 12 and a half years, we paid 100,000 million debts in dollars that we had not contracted. Was it magic? Are we geniuses? No, it was the model for building society, a production model, of added value, of social inclusion, of sustaining the national industry, of good wages. Because it is not a sin to pay good salaries, on the contrary, it is for good Christians.
– Many say that my second government was not as good as Nestor’s or my first. I am clear that it was because it was when the workers earned the most and when people might save the most money.
– Three months following taking over as president by one of those economic geniuses who give us classes every day, I almost put the country in a hat. It was something very strong, in this same square we spoke on two occasions in that crisis that honestly divided Argentine society. After a few months, on wet rain, worth the redundancy, the crisis of Lehman Brothers. Then in 2008 or 2009 came the drought, something always redundant in the Argentine economy.
– We cannot continue to be tied to a primary economy, we cannot continue to be tied to international prices or to rain or shine. We Argentines need to make a qualitative leap, to articulate the public and the private, an alliance to add value, to incorporate technology.
– When one looks at the main economies that have emerged in the last 20 years, mainly on the Asian side, it is far from the doctrine that they want to impose on us here that the private and the market solve everything. On the contrary, they are accumulation models agreed between the public and private sectors in the activities that generate the most returns, and therefore the greatest incorporation of technology, added value and skilled labor. This is the discussion that millions of Argentines are waiting for and not the bullshit that is said every day in the media.
– I cannot forget the square of the pumpkin, on December 9, 2015, when we said goodbye not forever (it is interrupted with the cry of “Cristina president”). I remember that day with much love, much gratitude, much affection. Believe me that for a political militant of my generation following 3 terms of government to have been able to tell the Argentines that we left them a much better country than the one we had received was a sign of pride.
– What did we receive when we returned in 2019? Once once more Argentina is in debt in dollars. When it mightn’t be paid, what happened happened, once more the Monetary Fund, but with an additional cost. They were no longer more or less normal standby loans, but they gave (Macri) 57,000 million dollars so that he might win the elections, an unprecedented, unusual loan. They liquidated 45,000 million dollars and even then they might not win the elections.
