The president Javier Milei defended the economic program of his Government and assured that the Argentine economy has begun a new stage of recovery, driven by fiscal balance, monetary adjustment, and the process of deregulation.
During his presentation at the event “Argentina 2026: global insertion, future of the Argentine macroeconomy, and implications for the micro,” organized by the Banco de Valores at the Museum of Latin American Art of Buenos Aires (MALBA), the president stated that “despite negative shocks, the economy is beginning to show signs of expansion.”
At the beginning of his speech, Milei emphasized the centrality of fiscal order within the official economic framework. “Fiscal balance has become a state policy, and it is our declaration to the world that we will honor our commitments and that we have left behind that serial defaulting Argentina,” he expressed. The President was accompanied by the Chief of Cabinet, Manuel Adorni, and the Minister of the Interior, Diego Santilli.
In his analysis of the global context, the head of state stated that the country is in a favorable position compared to other economies.
“The current international context finds us as the best-positioned country in the face of this crisis, because we are the only one in the G20 with fiscal balance and energy surplus,” he maintained. In that line, he reaffirmed that the libertarian administration will continue with the process of reducing public spending and implementing structural reforms.
The president also referred to legislative advances that will contribute to energizing the economy. Among them, he mentioned the approval of the first budget with fiscal balance in Congress, the labor modernization law, and the reform of the Glaciers Law. As he explained, these initiatives will allow Argentina to “have a lot of investments.”
