President Milei Reaffirms Economic Plan in Meetings with Cabinet and Legislators

President Javier Milei held a series of meetings at the Casa Rosada with his Cabinet and members of the La Libertad Avanza party in Congress to defend his economic management. During these sessions, Milei ratified his commitment to his current program, stating that he will not betray his ideas or modify the plan for the sake of the 2027 elections, as doing so would result in a loss of credibility. He specifically addressed the issue of increasing delinquency in credits and payments, dismissing claims of a crisis and accusing the Kirchnerist opposition and journalists of attempting to create a fear campaign to undermine his measures.

In a private meeting with deputies and senators, Milei used a whiteboard to detail the economic program and criticized what he termed repugnant markets. The session was described by some attendees as effusive and characterized by the President speaking loudly. He urged his allies to combat falsehoods ahead of challenging sessions in Congress. Meanwhile, during the Cabinet meeting, Milei rejected the concept of empathy, viewing it as a justification for increased government spending.

Reports indicate internal dynamics within the administration, including a reorganization of the communications team involving Karina Milei and the Menem family. While some officials expressed a desire for a less intransigent communication style, others noted that the government's success depends primarily on whether the economy begins to grow. Center right sources frame these events as a necessary defense of a coherent plan against a corrupt media and political opposition, while also noting internal tensions regarding the administration's communication strategy and the influence of the President's inner circle.
