He added: “Europe was left without growth, without the rule of law and today... its leaders were also left without any political credibility.”
He also linked these policies to political interests: “Creating dependents is creating voters, each subsidy is a purchased vote.”

regarded.”

Morality as State Policy
The president presented one of the central axes of his administration: “Today I come to talk to you about a core concept of our government management... I speak, neither more nor less, of morality as State policy.”
In this regard, he explained the order of priorities that guide his administration: “Morality, what is morally correct — that is, the defense of the right to life, freedom and property — always, without exception, comes first, and political calculation, always without exception, comes last.”

say it.”
Criticism of the Argentine past
