María Becerra was the subject of criticism from President Javier Milei, who nicknamed her 'María BCRA' in reference to the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA), due to comments the singer made at her show in Neuquén. At that event, María questioned the government's response to the wildfires in El Bolsón, Río Negro province.
Following María Becerra's comments, Milei expressed his anger, arguing that the government is deploying efforts to combat the fire in the region. Additionally, he criticized the singer, comparing her to a fictional character and questioning her motivation.
In contrast to the criticism, María Becerra called for the solidarity of the population, arguing that it is important to act and support during crisis situations, even if the state does not provide the necessary help. In this sense, the singer urged her followers to contribute with donations to send firefighting planes to extinguish the fires in Patagonia.
For his part, the President, through his social media, shared a meme that caricatured María Becerra carrying suitcases full of dollars, amid the controversy sparked by Milei's criticisms of various personalities and groups.
These events add to a series of controversies in which public figures and political figures in Argentina have become involved, highlighting tensions and differences of opinion in society.
