Javier Milei defended himself against the criticisms received for his promotion of the cryptocurrency Libra, insisting that his intention was to facilitate access to financing for entrepreneurs. In response to the government's request to investigate those involved in the Libra case, Milei assured that Argentina is on the path to recovery and highlighted the achievements of his management in economic matters.
Regarding his relationship with the Libra scandal, Milei stated that he is not an expert in cryptocurrencies, but in economic growth, and reaffirmed his proposal to lift currency restrictions before the end of his term. The interview conducted with Milei has sparked various interpretations in political and economic spheres.
Amidst the accusations against him, the president defended his position fearlessly, expressing that he has no reason to hide information regarding the Libra case and admitting the need to restrict access to his environment and strengthen controls. Milei downplayed the impact of Libra's collapse, stating that the majority of investors were of American and Chinese origin.
The political leader addressed key issues such as declining inflation, projected growth of 7%, and the state of economic recovery, which has generated nervousness among opposition parties. Regarding the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich, Milei considered her a relevant figure in his political space, predicting a decisive victory if she decides to run in the City. Additionally, he stated that the number of those affected by the Libra case is lower than mentioned, and announced his intention to eliminate currency restrictions by the end of 2025.
