On Monday night, Caputo had also been required by the press, but when he left the Dinner of the Freedom Foundation that took place in the Goldencenter Hall in the City of Buenos Aires, where he crossed some gestures with Mauricio Macri and Manuel Adorni and Santiago Caputo, in times of negotiations and pulls between La Libertad advances and the PRO for an eventual electoral agreement.
When I left that space and consulted for his encounter with Mauricio Macri, he evaded the question and said: “Do not put the camera on my face, boys.”
These were not the only incidents starring this year by Caputo. In fact, last February an interview by Javier Milei with Jonathan Viale interrupted after the scandal broke out for the $ Libra cryptocurrency, to tell the president something to the ear.
In this regard, Viale revealed that it was at the time of asking the last question of the report when Caputo appeared from behind the cameras and got into the plane to speak to Javier Milei about a mention to Mariano Cúneo Libarona.
“Milei at one time, in the end, says that he was going to consult the minister of justice. There Caputo realizes that he is making a delicate error that is not to ask the Minister of Justice how to continue because the minister is not his lawyer. He would be using a public resource for a subject of him before justice,” Viale recalled the next day.
Manuel Adorni, then told the back of an intervention of the advisor who leaked in social networks and slid that the president did not like that appearance of the advisor. “Caputo has the defect, so to speak, of Excellence. He noticed that that could give confusion to some part of the audience and decided to cut the note. When the note ended, the president said ‘Santiago, this was unnecessary’. And in fact it was what we transmitted later to Santiago,” said the presidential spokesman.
Another fact that the Milei advisor was recorded in the center of the scene was recorded in Congress during the opening of ordinary sessions, in early March, when he increased the radical deputy Facundo Manes in a hall after a neuroscientist crossing with President Javier Milei.

“Facundo was giving a report and suddenly come and advance. I approach. They were taken with Manes who is a quiet man. He only had the constitution in hand,” said Marcela Coli, a radical deputy of May 25, a town of few inhabitants of La Pampa. and describes as a big man to the Caputo companion.
Then, he added: “Once they end up with the threat they automatically leave as running. They did not do it on the stairs that the deputies use but on the right. The big one took it to Caputo.”
This same Tuesday, on the social network X, Javier Milei published a strong message where he insisted with the idea that people “do not hate journalists enough.”
“Given everything they cry every time I answer the giant mountain of lies, slander and insults that they usually say (do it 7×24) I ask them: did not you think of stopping and starting for telling the truth? And if they tell a mistake, what do you think they ask for forgiveness?” The president wrote.
“At the same time it is outrageous that every time errors are pointed out (they do not bank back), instead of apologizing or clarifying the issue, they cry attack on the press,” the president protested.
Last week, Milei had already signed up against the press, by attacking what he called “pauter journalism.” “90% of Argentine journalism lies shamelessly with political intentionality,” he said.
