During the closing of Javier Milei's speech at the Legislative Assembly, a tense moment occurred between the president and the vice president. When Victoria Villarruel attempted to conclude the event, Milei interrupted her, marking the only direct exchange between them throughout the day.
Villarruel, unaware of the president's intention, began to close the protocol saying "Having fulfilled the objective of this solemn assembly...", but Milei immediately interrupted her with a "I haven't finished. Sorry, sorry," concluding his speech with his characteristic slogan: "God bless the Argentines, may the forces of heaven be with us, and long live freedom, damn it."
The lack of coordination was evident when the official transmission did not show the greeting between the parties involved, and additionally, the vice president avoided joining in the applause from the ruling party inside the chamber. After the Legislative Assembly, Villarruel was not invited to the dinner at Casa Rosada with Milei and his cabinet, marking a moment of total coldness between them.
The president asked the vice president to stop when she was closing the event, saying, "Stop... Don't rush," a situation that surprised Villarruel. This episode left a scene of discomfort between Milei and Villarruel during the proceedings of the Legislative Assembly.
