00:00Let's listen to Manuel's speech.
00:11This year has been a turning point in our history.
00:15A period of transition between a century of misery that comes to an end
00:19and a prosperous future for us and our children who are starting to be born.
00:23It has been difficult for everyone, but at the same time very necessary.
00:28Once again, I thank you for having trusted this government.
00:32Unlike the politicians we had become accustomed to,
00:36we always held that the only way out was with a government plan
00:40based on uncomfortable truths and not on empty promises of prosperity.
00:47I don't want to dwell too much on what I already said a few days ago in Cadena Nacional,
00:52but what we proposed when we started the term was a fiscal adjustment of 15 points of the GDP,
00:58applying a turnstile to the monetary emission to stop feeding the inflationary monster
01:03and a strong exchange rate anchor to strengthen the weight in time.
01:08The experts of always, those who never harvested their own achievement
01:13and who are collectors of failures, said it was impossible.
01:18Only the economic team led by Toto Caputo and I bet on this program against everyone.
01:25They said that it was not possible to make an adjustment of one point of the GDP in a year
01:29and we ended up adjusting 5 points in the Treasury and 10 points in the Central Bank,
01:34making the biggest adjustment in history.
01:38To be aware of what was achieved,
01:41when you look at the history of Argentina,
01:48in the last 123 years we had a fiscal deficit of 113.
01:56And in the days when we did not have a fiscal deficit,
01:59I always speak in the financial line,
02:01it was because we were in default and we did not pay the interests.
02:08That is to say that in rigor we never had a fiscal balance.
02:15And when we said we were going to a zero deficit program,
02:21they told us it was impossible.
02:24They said it was crazy to believe that you could adjust more than one point per year.
02:32And thanks to the enormous work of Toto Caputo and all his team,
02:41we reached the fiscal balance in the first month of management.
02:47Then they started saying that it was a blender,
02:54that there was a scissors, that there was no chainsaw.
02:59In fact, the adjustment was 7 points in the Treasury.
03:05And given that we were aware that the increase in savings that we were generating
03:11was not going to have a counterpart in investment,
03:14we knew that from the beginning we were going to have a drop in the level of economic activity.
03:20And that in addition, while we were closing the economy,
03:25obviously that sincerity implied a jump in poverty.
03:31So we decided, from human capital, to give social support to the most vulnerable,
03:39while also in a joint action between Minister Petovello,
03:46the formidable and wonderful Minister Patricia Bullrich
03:51and dear Guillermo Ferraro, may he rest in peace.
03:55They did the phenomenal job of not only giving support to the most vulnerable,
04:01but that action allowed us to end the managers of poverty
04:08and to abuse those who have the least.
04:20And within the things we did at that time,
04:26we reduced the number of ministries to 9,
04:30we eliminated secretaries, sub-secretaries,
04:35we eliminated certain state offices,
04:40offices that, for example, were used to persecute ideological opponents,
04:47that is, to persecute liberals,
04:50specifically, such as the Ministry of Women or the INADI,
04:54where every time one expressed the idea of freedom,
04:58they charged him with a complaint of hate speech.
05:02That is, for them, hate is saying 2 plus 12, 4.
05:08And in that sense,
05:12we also eliminated public work,
05:19a source of giant corruption in the history of Argentina,
05:23we also eliminated discretionary transfers to provinces,
05:29we eliminated subsidies,
05:33not only did we also eliminate subsidies,
05:36but we also fired public employees,
05:42we suspended hundreds of thousands of contracts,
05:49and there are still people who say that this was a lot of money,
05:55that the adjustment was paid by the people and not the caste.
05:59In fact, a certain person, days ago, said that
06:03the adjustment was paid by the retirees.
06:07You have to be a liar and immoral,
06:10and shameless to say something like that,
06:13because public spending fell 30% in real terms,
06:20while the retirement account, in real terms,
06:24is above what it was in November,
06:28when we found ourselves with the accounts,
06:31when we assumed in December.
06:34Therefore, let's say, the retirees did not pay for the adjustment,
06:38but the cry of politics paid for it.
06:41But it was not the only mechanism
06:46by which we generated monetary emission.
06:50We had factors of endogenous creation
06:55that derived from the remunerated passives of the Central Bank.
06:59There is a small detail, I don't know if Guido told you, but...
07:041342, Javier Milley is talking right now
07:08in the trade bag of the Mediterranean province,
07:12in Córdoba, Pablo, right?
07:15Yes, exactly, trade bag, with a Milley
07:18who repeats his little battle all year long
07:21about the adjustment he made
07:24and how that allowed the private sector to save
07:28and invest, which will generate economic reactivation.
07:31This is the speech he made today in Córdoba
07:34and yesterday in Tucumán,
07:36when he received an award from a foundation linked to his ideas,
07:40where Governor Haldo and Governor Jalil from Catamarca were also.
07:44It is a Milley who wants to start,
07:47at least towards the end of the year, to travel a little more the country.
07:50Well, well, well.
07:52Of course, you said that what you wanted was to show with governors,
07:54that that was a key, maybe it was that link with governors,
07:59even with the allies, the opposing allies,
08:03it has been a deficit, right?
08:05Yes, it was a deficit in general of the management of Milley,
08:08who traveled very little the country.
08:10If one revises, he went to Santa Fe a couple of times,
08:13he went to Córdoba, he went to Tucumán yesterday,
08:16he went to Corrientes, where he was practically for a few hours,
08:19only to also receive an award from a libertarian foundation.
08:22To Salta, and not much more, to Antarctica.
08:26Very little traveled through the country of President Javier Milley,
08:30who in general had little agenda too.
08:32When, throughout the year, we always wonder
08:35what the president does all day in Olivos,
08:37he has no public agenda, he does not inaugurate works,
08:39things that we are used to or we were used to.
08:42Other presidents, well, there is a Milley style that is completely different.
08:45Thank you, Pablito.
