The President of Argentina, Javier Mileiattacked the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, through his X account, for his desire to increase taxes on those who already have “enough money to live a hundred lives” and hopes that the Spanish can be “protected” from “this predator of wealth.”
“Socialism is an aberrant disease of the soul”said Milei, who finds it “frightening” how the issues of “deep envy, fatal arrogance and economic ignorance” are combined in a single sentence.
In his message, the Argentine president quotes the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Diaz Ayusoand the leader of Vox, Santiago Abascalwhom he met during his last visit to Spain in June.
Sánchez said in his speech that his promise, which he did not give details of, does not seek to “harm millionaires” but “to protect the middle and working classes from a system that continues to be extraordinarily unjust.”
Socialism is an aberrant disease of the soul. The combination of deep envy, fatal arrogance and ignorance of economics in this sentence is horrible.
D..S protects the Spanish from this predator of wealth…

For the President of the Government, “regardless of what some people think, Spain will be a better country if it has more electric cars, certainly manufactured in Spain,” more public buses and therefore more public transport and fewer Lamborghinis“.
Last May, Argentina and Spain went through a diplomatic crisis with the definitive withdrawal of the Spanish ambassador from Buenos Aires, Maria Jesus Alonso, in the absence of an apology from Milei for calling Pedro Sánchez’s wife, Begoña Gómez, “corrupt.”
