“Is the law perfect? No, but in politics nothing is.. Given the extreme fragility of our economy, I believe it is important to give President Milei these tools to fulfill the mandate that Argentines gave him to reduce the inflation and order the economy. And the time we have to do this is not infinite.“, added the former president.

It remains to be seen what he will say. Javier Mileithe first time (last February) that the project was highly modified, he preferred to withdraw it.
“At PRO we have always been in favor of these changes. We have long said that it is necessary to encourage investment, modernize labor standards and eliminate the corporate State, even more so when these public companies are also recording losses.” he added Mauricio Macri in its publication.
