«We are in a difficult economic situation and I think that with inflation that can travel to 4.5 or 5% per month plus seasonal situations such as in March that impacts (on the final result). The only thing that this last piece of information does is to renew the commitment with all Argentines to find a downward path of inflation and with that recover the salary, “Rossi commented in an interview for AM 990 radio.
“What the opposition is proposing is devaluation and that is going to bring more inflation and more poverty. Let’s hope that this month we will have a price evolution at a more logical speed. We say that inflation is a multi-causal phenomenon that has to do with macroeconomic issues but there is also a situation with the distributive bid and in Argentina with excessive profit-taking by concentrated sectors of the economy. This requires multiple actions and measures that the Government is permanently taking,” insisted the former Minister of National Defense.
“It is strange that sectors of the opposition say that they are going to solve inflation with more inflation. When one listens to Mauricio Macri or Javier Miley the only difference is the length of the dynamite fuse… some want that fuse longer and others want it to be shorter. Argentines demanded more work in 2019 and today there is more work and economic growth,” said the former AFI agent.
“The best candidate of the Frente de Todos will emerge from the PASO and that is the path we have to follow, make a call to the National Council of the PJ, then we need our Congress, a code of coexistence without low blows in the PASO,” he concluded. the former national deputy with optimism for the 2023 national elections.
