Socialist deputy Esteban Paulón announced that he will file a political trial request against President Javier Milei for promoting the Libra token and allegedly being involved in an $80 million scam. Paulón expressed his concern over the situation and indicated that Milei should take responsibility for his actions.
The controversy erupted after Milei announced on his social media account the launch of the Viva La Libertad Project, related to the $LIBRA token. The project's goal would be to facilitate funding for small businesses and Argentine ventures. Despite confirming the authenticity and private nature of the project, Milei later admitted he was not fully informed about the details and decided not to continue promoting it.
In his publication, Milei described the project as a platform to connect international investors and local entrepreneurs, highlighting the company KIP Protocol as responsible for the $LIBRA token. In response to criticism and accusations, the president pointed to his political opponents as responsible for attempting to harm him and reaffirmed his commitment to his liberal stance.
The situation has generated controversy in the Argentine political arena, with mutual accusations and a debate on ethics and transparency in promoting financial projects. As the case develops, details and responsibilities of the parties involved in the controversy are expected to be clarified.
