“If Milei loses, we will not be generous with Argentina,” said Donald Trump this Tuesday at the White House. The phrase was to show explicit support for the Government in the face of the elections that are coming this coming October 26, but also an extortion: the United States will turn its back on Argentina if the majority of the population does not vote for the La Libertad Avanza lists. In Creole: if you don’t vote for Milei there is no money.
The deepening of Yankee interference in national politics is growing by leaps and bounds. The emergence of the North American Treasury into the exchange market last Thursday had already demonstrated this and this Tuesday’s meeting in Washington confirms it. But it is not something isolated, but rather it is part of the policy that the United States has been carrying out in the region: it could be seen in Brazil with the Bolsonaro case, in our country anticipating the conviction of Cristina Kirchner, or in Venezuela at this time with the bombing of boats on the coast in the name of “the fight against drugs.”
That same interference is celebrated by a chorus of explicit sepoyism led by the president and his ministers, but which also includes a long list of communicators and “independent journalists.” They celebrate dependence and ties to the United States, talking about the supposed advantages that this will bring to the economy and trade. But it was precisely the latter who had to begin making their best efforts to “clarify” and “reinterpret” Trump’s message in the face of the collapse that was taking place on Wall Street in Argentine stocks and bonds.
One of the first to go out to officiate Trump interpreter It was the Minister of Security and candidate for senator for CABA, Patricia Bullrich, who assured that the president of the United States did not refer to the elections but “to the philosophy of the Government.”
The collapse of bonds and stocks meant that For hours, different officials will parade through the TV channels to interpret Trump’s words. Caputo, Minister Petri and Chancellor Gerardo Werthein passed through LN+, who assured that the support was not conditional on the electoral result of October 26. The latter even went further, and interviewed by Nicolás Wiñasky on A24, he pointed out Gordo Dan, who had held him responsible for what happened since he did not clarify Trump’s alleged confusion, who thought that the upcoming elections were presidential. “With how busy I am and with the things I’m doing, the last thing I need is to worry about a tweeter,” Werthein counterattacked, ignoring him.

Trump’s subsequent clarification on social networks, ensuring that he hopes “that people in Argentina understand how good the work he has been doing is and support him in the next midterm elections“seems to support the libertarian tweeter’s theory.
Donald just came out to clarify the Midterms thing because he’s a GREAT DUDE. Serious error on the part of the Argentine Foreign Ministry for having allowed this situation when Donald HAD ALREADY LEARNED IN PUBLIC several days ago that he thought it was the presidential election.

Confusion aside, the interdict once again confirms the internal crusades and also the improvisation of the Government team, which, desperate to obtain political support and economic backing, ended up buying a new problem and being exposed in all its fragility.
Despite this, Milei insisted from his social networks with the sense of Trumpist blackmail: “Argentines know that the main power in the world will continue to support us unless we embrace populism again. The situation is very clear: If the country moved away from the path of the ideas of freedom to return to populism, the United States would stop supporting our country.“, wrote.
Thank you very much President Trump for welcoming me to the White House.

The extortion, both by Trump and Milei himself, seeks to sow the idea that the choice is between LLA or chaos. But it runs the serious risk that the vultures that operate in the financial markets will take it to heart and, foreseeing a defeat, will finish sinking it before its time.The specter of the beating in the Buenos Aires elections and the long list of setbacks that have been accumulating in the political, parliamentary, economic and social fields support the hypothesis of a bad result. That is the reason why the conditional support was read negatively by financial capital reacting downward. What is called a real shot in the foot: an image that exposes the extreme fragility of the best government in history.
Before these explicit colonial scenes and blatant blackmail to support at the polls an adjustment policy that increasingly meets with greater social rejection, it is necessary to seriously debate the consequences of continuing to be tied to the interests of North American imperialism. If what you really want is To defend sovereignty and national interests, it is necessary to leave behind campaign slogans and seriously discuss what to do in the face of debt fraud and the permanent looting of our resources and property. It is not possible to “negotiate better” with those who only seek to subject the country’s destinies to big capital and that is why anti-imperialism is not only a necessary issue, but it is also urgent.
