Criticism towards the leader of the La Libertad Avanza party, Javier Milei, has quickly followed his recent statements against former Argentine president Cristina Kirchner. Various political figures have condemned his words as violent and undemocratic.
From the account of the governor of the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, the incompatibility of Milei's statements with democratic principles was expressed. It is expected that these words will receive unanimous condemnation from the entire political spectrum. Ricardo Quintela, an opponent of Cristina Kirchner in the internal politics of the Justicialist Party, pointed out that Milei aims not only for an Argentina without Peronism but also to divert attention from the failure of his economic model.
Oscar Parrilli, a senator and close collaborator of the former president, warned about the danger of normalizing the implicit violence in Milei's words. He also called on the entire political spectrum to reject speeches that promote violence. For his part, the governor expressed his concern about the growing hostility and hatred that Milei shows towards his opponents, which legitimizes violence against those who do not share his ideas.
In response to Milei's criticism of former Health Minister Ginés González García, his desire for death towards Cristina Kirchner, who previously suffered an attempted assassination, was highlighted. These attitudes generate rejection in society, which must unite to condemn the unbalanced violence and hatred in the political sphere. Agustín Rossi, quoting María Elena Walsh, assured that despite adversities, Peronism and Cristina Kirchner will continue to resist incitements to violence.
Various Peronist leaders and political figures, such as Eduardo "Wado" de Pedro and Natalia Zaracho, have pointed out the seriousness of Milei's statements and have urged the cessation of the propagation of violent messages in society. Polarization and hate speech have been rejected by a broad political spectrum that seeks to promote a democratic and respectful debate in the public arena. Thousands of voices rise against verbal violence and intolerance in Argentine politics.
