Libertarian congresswoman Lilia Lemoine made controversial statements accusing Vice President Victoria Villarruel of mocking President Javier Milei before joining him on a ticket for the government in November 2023. According to Lemoine, before becoming Javier's candidate, Villarruel mocked him and publicly discredited his image. In a radio interview, Lemoine expressed her discontent with Villarruel's attitude, whom she described as a person who does not uphold the values she propagates.
In her statements, the legislator criticized Villarruel for behaving inappropriately and disloyally towards Milei, whom she considers the best president in history and whom she urges to support unreservedly. Lemoine accused Villarruel of belittling her political partner Karina, suggesting that without her, Villarruel would not have become a congresswoman. Furthermore, the congresswoman launched personal attacks against Villarruel, questioning her integrity and recalling her past, implying that she was not a decent person.
Amidst these accusations, Lemoine described Villarruel as a hypocritical person, recalling awkward situations in which, according to Lemoine, Villarruel had behaved reprehensibly. The congresswoman expressed indignation at Villarruel's attitude, urging her to show loyalty and respect towards Milei, whom she considers an exemplary leader.
