Although President Gustavo Petro did not attend the inauguration of Javier Milei as the new president of Argentina on December 10, it seems that he has not forgotten the president and launched a sharp taunt at him.
The head of state attacked the “free market” strategy that Milei professes, warning that it has been one of the causes of global warming, accelerating the climate crisis.
“But how is that mathematical mechanism, which is beautiful, aesthetic, the principle that a free market leads to the maximum of well-being? If Milei (president of Argentina) were here, he would be repeating it to me, I don’t know if with the same mathematics, but how is it that what we have as data today (regarding the free market) is global warming? “said Petro.

And he added, in his speech at the launch of the National Urban Economic Census of the Dane, that the free market might unleash the “sixth extinction of life on the planet.”
“Scientists talk regarding 1.5 above the surface temperature before the Industrial Revolution, which can be so catastrophic and that if it rises further, depending on CO₂ emissions, it has the potential for the sixth extinction of the life on the planet,” Petro insisted.

Furthermore, he warned: “What happened to the economy? Because the data is indicating the opposite, and in a frightening way, because it is not even that poverty levels are increasing, that they are increasing; that it is not even that hunger levels increase, that they increase; It is not even that the insecurity of human beings in the face of production and employment increases, what the data is telling us is that we can become extinct. What happened to the economy? I leave that there as an approach.”
President Petro has not hidden his rejection of Milei’s policies, for which, whenever he can, he launches sword attacks once morest him. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Álvaro Leyva, attended the inauguration of the new president of Argentina on behalf of the national government of the so-called change.
