Argentina President Under Fire for Performance Amid Wildfires

A debate has opened in Argentina over the appropriateness of the president's conduct. While part of the country is ravaged by wildfires, leaving many homeless, President Javier Milei is set to perform on stage with his ex-partner, Fatima Florez, in Mar del Plata. Journalist Baby Etchecopar, a voter of the president, launched a sharp critique of the trip. He stated that he believes it is inappropriate for the country's leader to go 'boludear' (fooling around) amidst a crisis. His words: 'I'm not attacking Milei, I'm reflecting on things that bother me.' This has sparked a national discussion: is the president's private life his own business, or do such appearances create unnecessary noise and distract from state affairs?
