Javier Milei confirmed his candidacy for President and presented all his applicants to legislative positions. With an extensive Twitter thread, the leader of La Libertad Avanza cleared up rumors and launched his campaign.
“What is this election regarding?” Milei began by asking herself on her social networks, adding: “Argentines have a historic opportunity. After decades of failures in which the same as always shared power, today we have the opportunity to do something different. To turn this sad page of our history”.
Along these lines, he continued: “We started the 20th century being the richest country in the world and for a hundred years we have slowly seen how politicians, with the excuse of Social Justice, were appropriating our wealth to distribute it among themselves. While the We Argentines were getting poorer”.
Three days following the closing of the lists, Javier Milei took out his main setter, Carlos Kikuchi
“From the country of immigrants to the country from which our boys want to run away. From having the strongest currency in the world to decades of constant inflation. From the granary of the world to our people starving. Argentines starving because they don’t have enough to eat,” he added.
He also commented: “All our problems have the same root: a political class that only cares regarding its own interests. Politicians, judges, trade unionists, businessmen, journalists who work every day so that nothing changes. So that everything stays the same. Because the status quo serves them.”
“We come to break that status quo. We have come to end this model that only benefits politicians and their friends. We come to defend the ideas of freedom that are the only ones that can bring prosperity to our country. We are here to seriously change things,” he continued.
In this sense, he pointed out: “This coming election is perhaps the most important since the return of democracy. There is no room to continue insisting with more of the same. If we continue on this path, we are certain that we will be the shantytown largest in the world. There is no other destination.”
“The only possibility of avoiding this fate of poverty for our country is with a profound change, from the roots, to once once more embrace the ideas of freedom, which are the ideas that made this country great. That is our fight. Make Argentina Great Again“, he stressed.
Finally, he concluded: “The central question we have to ask ourselves is this: do we want to continue like this or do we want to do something different? For months they have called me crazy for proposing a different path for our country. Madness is continuing to do the same and expect different results.”
