He Puebla Group responded to Javier Milei after the Argentine president accused them of wanting to “overthrow” his government.
According to the media La Capital, the leader of La Libertad Avanza attacked the progressive group at the presentation event of his new book, pointing his darts “at socialism of the 21st century.”
“They want to overthrow this government because they want socialism and misery to continue”said the trans-Andean president on Thursday night.
As the hours passed, the aforementioned group responded directly to the economist through social networks.
“President Milei, if there is something that characterizes us, it is being democratic, precisely something that does not distinguish you and your ‘friends’”indicated the alliance in its X account.
“And as for misery, what a broken face! Since he took office, purchasing power has dropped 24% in Argentina and “Poverty went from 49% to 55% in 5 months of his government”he added.
“Take care of what’s important”pointed out the Puebla Group.
Subsequently, the political and academic forum shared a tweet from Marco Enríquez-Ominami, founder and coordinator of the group, who on his X account wrote: “Does the Puebla Group keep you up so much?”
“The real misery is your policy of hatred and exclusion. Less show and more solutions for the Argentine people! “She maintained.
Let us remember that after the first measures adopted by Milei as president of Argentina, the Puebla Group assured that trans-Andean democracy was “at high risk.”
“President Milei, in an act of subjugation of the republican system that the National Constitution imposes in Argentinasigned a Decree of Necessity and Urgency through which it repealed or modified more than 350 substantive laws that regulate the economy, foreign trade, labor rights, regulations for the exploitation of minerals and standards that preserve the environment,” the group accused in last December.
“The National Constitution of Argentina authorizes the Executive Branch to issue Decrees of Necessity and Urgency (DNU) in extreme situations in which the need and urgency are fully proven. In the questioned case, those requirements are absent,” he added.
“The President has assumed the functions of the Legislative Branch, thus assuming the sum of public power”the group launched in a statement signed, among others, by the former Argentine president Alberto Fernandezthe former Ecuadorian president Rafael Correathe former Minister of Economy of Chile, Carlos Ominamiin addition to his own Enriquez-Ominami.
