I also reiterate my vocation to promote the values that brought me here, above all freedom, in addition to promoting lower taxes, fewer regulations and the return to rule of law on public roads. I am concerned that the cancel culture continues to gain ground, I reject it always and everywhere. Cheers!”.

Today there is already a position of the UCR regarding his continuity as a candidate, they also raised my candidacy, there are sectors that prefer that people not choose. I am going to be a candidate. Sectors of the same space have clearly manifested themselves and I am here to discuss other things,” Jorge Macri continued in LN+.
