Within the framework of the Argentine Institute of Finance Executives (IAEF) event, the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem, was interviewed by Javier Negre, journalist and owner of La Derecha Diario.
The dialogue revolved around the importance of the financial sector, the electoral strategy of La Libertad Avanza, and the firm defense of the decisions made by Javier Milei's Government.
Menem highlighted the presence of the Argentine president at the event and emphasized the relevance of the leader as the foremost representative of libertarian ideas. He also took the opportunity to show his support for the official candidate in Buenos Aires City, Manuel Adorni, whom he described as the true representative of the president in the district.
The interview also addressed the role of the media and the tensions caused by the elimination of official advertising, a measure Menem claimed was necessary to break with past practices. In this line, he accused certain sectors of the press of operating against the Government due to being economically affected.
Finally, Menem valued the work of Karina Milei, Secretary General of the Presidency, in the national political organization and highlighted significant victories in provinces like Jujuy, Salta, and Santa Fe. Confidently, he hinted that Rosario could have a libertarian mayor in the upcoming 2027 elections.
The complete interview with Martín Menem
Javier Negre: We are with Martín Menem, president of the Chamber of Deputies. Why did you want to participate in this IAEF event? Why is the financial sector important?
Martín Menem: It's not that I wanted to participate, I was invited a long time ago and had committed to coming. Anyway, the important thing is that the President will be here today, who is the figure that best represents what we are defending.
Negre: Already in electoral mode, Sunday is the Buenos Aires elections, after the success in Jujuy and Salta, what do you expect from the elections?
Menem: I believe Manuel is a great candidate, he is the only one who represents President Milei, he is President Milei in Buenos Aires City, and I think he will do a great job in the election. Obviously, we are very optimistic about the results, but well, we must be cautious, people have to decide. I take this opportunity to call on people to go vote, the more people vote, the better the popular will is reflected.
