Overview
- President Javier Milei released a year‑end video telling Argentines to “fasten your seatbelts” and promising many more reforms in the next phase of his government.
- In the message, Milei claimed his administration took the consolidated fiscal deficit from 15% of GDP to zero, put inflation in order, lifted 12 million people out of poverty, scrapped currency controls and sealed a bilateral commercial accord with the United States.
- He also highlighted security actions, asserting a drop from thousands of annual street blockades to zero and announcing the creation of a Federal Directorate of Investigations to target organized crime.
- Milei celebrated the use of paper ballot ballots in the midterms and the gains by La Libertad Avanza, saying the new Congress will allow him to push reforms “to the bone.”
- Former president Mauricio Macri posted his own year‑end balance that emphasized effective governance, featured select PRO leaders and omitted others, a signal read as an indirect message to the national government.
