On the morning of the 8th, Javier Milley, a member of Argentina's far-right electoral alliance Freedom Forward Party, held a constitutional oath-taking ceremony at the Argentine parliament building, and received the ribbon and crutches from the former Fernando in his hand. Afterward, Mr. Milley told supporters outside the parliament building that he wanted to push for "change" and vowed to lead the country out of decades of "degeneration and decline." "This is a major turning point in the history of our country," he said. Milley also pledged that he would "do everything in his might" to lead Argentina into a "new, peaceful, and prosperous new era." "We can no longer engage in meaningless negotiations, our homeland must act now. As he said in his speech, he issued a "reform order" on his first day in office. The Washington Post quoted political analyst Andres Malamud as saying that while many of Mr. Milley's supporters are looking forward to his reforms, he still faces the difficult challenge of finding political and social support to push for reforms: "Most people say it's necessary, but no one wants to pay for it." ”
Javier Milley held a ceremony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on December 10, 2023 local time. (Visual China).
Half of the 18 cabinet members were laid off.
On the evening of the 7th, the Argentine ** government announced a job ** of rice on social **x, which read:"Javier Millet, Argentine Republic, has signed a decree reducing the current number of institutions to nine. "It also shows that Mr. Milley boldly fulfilled his campaign promise at the beginning of his administration: to cut Argentina by half of its 18 provinces.
According to the Argentine newspaper "El Nacional", the decree will be officially announced on the same day. Under the Act, the former Minister of Energy and Mines will be merged into the Ministry of Economy;The Ministry of Social Development, Education, Labour, Women, Culture, and the Ministry of Human Capital. Milley had previously considered merging the Ministry of Health into the Human Resources Headquarters, but it ended up being a separate unit. The order also states that in order to optimize the performance of public utilities, housing, communications and transport in Argentina, a single infrastructure sector will be merged. At the same time, in the organizational structure of the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Tourism and Sustainable Development will also be included.
Argentina currently has nine ministries, namely the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Security, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Infrastructure, the Ministry of Health, and the Ministry of Personnel.
In response to this departmental streamlining, the Regulations explain that this move is to make the work of ** more efficient.
Reuters said Milley's move on his first day in office evoked some of his most memorable episodes of the campaign. At that time, in a society that was widely circulated, Milley tore off a piece of paper with the name of the department he was going to shut down and shouted in Spanish: "Afuera". Mr. Milley reportedly proposed a reduction in the number of A** institutions from 18 to 8 during the election, and now he has reduced it to nine on his first day of office, which is considered to be fulfilling his campaign promise.
Argentina reported that Argentine reported that the day Mr. Milley was sworn in was also the day he took office. The new ** consists of 1 Prime Minister and 9 Ministers. The first of them is Nicolás Posse, while Luis Caputo is the Minister of Economy and Diana Mondino is the *** Chief. Patricia Busriich of the center-right Congressive Alliance Alliance, as well as Luis Petrari, will be in charge of *** affairs and appointed defense minister.
On the 3rd, Argentine ** Milley posted a photo of his team on social ** x.
Mr. Milley became head of economics from Louis Capito, president of the Argentine bank during Macri's time, while San Diego, Caputo's close ally, was the chairman of the bank. This means that Macri is likely to influence Mr. Milley's policies to some extent. At the same time, Mr. Milley's earlier talk about the abolition of the ** bank and the abolition of the full dollarization of the national currency is unlikely to be implemented.
There is no way but to adjust. ”
Mr. Milley's tenure came at a time when Argentina was in the midst of a severe economic crisis, and at the beginning of his tenure, various policies related to the economy attracted a lot of attention. An Argentine spokeswoman said that Argentina's new ** will introduce a new economic policy on the 12th.
In his speech at the inauguration ceremony, Milley declared a "shock" fiscal austerity policy and warned that Argentina's economic situation would soon "get worse", AFP 9** said. He told thousands of supporters, "We have no other choice but one."'Shock**'。But, he added, "our efforts will be known in the near future." Mr. Milley did not announce his specific initiatives on the 10th, but he said that the new ** would reduce public spending by about 5 percent, "and this is by **, not by private enterprises." He compared the words "shock**" to "incremental reform."
Milley explained that when it comes to its economic policies, the last term has brought Argentina the worst in history: a fiscal deficit of 17 percent of GDP, an annual inflation rate of 300 percent, economic stagnation, a poverty rate of 45 percent, and a rate of 10 percent of extreme poverty. If left unchecked, Argentina will face an "annual inflation rate of 1,500%" and will have to go into a "shock" to mitigate the crisis,** Milley said that "the predecessor has put us on a hyperinflationary trajectory" and that "we will do anything to prevent this from happening." According to **, Argentina not only has high inflation and poverty rates, but is also in a deep debt crisis, with a debt of up to $44 billion to the IMF.
The data show that economic "shock" refers to the current situation of serious imbalance in the overall supply and demand relationship of society, through strict management and economic measures, in the short term to force and large-scale compression of consumer demand and investment demand, so as to achieve an artificial social balance of supply and demand, so as to curb hyperinflation and rebuild economic order. This policy control has a definite suddenness.
Reuters reported that Argentina's "shock" has been favored by investors, and it is indeed a way to bring the country's economy back to a stable state, but it risks making the Argentine people even poorer. However, Mr. Milley's Argentine voters said they were willing to take the risk because he sometimes took extreme ideas.
He's the only one of us who is still alive," Marcelo Altamira, 72, told Reuters. Altamira strongly denounced the last **, which took the country's economy from boom to recession, as "useless and incompetent". He said, "Destroyed the whole country." ”
Silvina Di Vitose, a 47-year-old caregiver, said Ms. Milley's approach to innovation was "I'm not afraid to adapt because I've been adapting all my life. They won't take everything from me. Instead, it gave me a better life. ”
Whether it's good or bad, it's all different. ”
On the front page of the Argentine newspaper Noticias, it wrote: "A new country is emerging: different, for better or for worse. The Guardian reported, "We are writing a new page in Argentina, and we will work to eliminate inflation and build a sound economic system." Carlos Dalessandro, a member of Milley's Democratic Forward Party, said. But he also acknowledged that Argentina will have a period of instability after Milley proposes "shock measures" to mend its "state of disaster".
After Milley came to power, one of the biggest concerns of the Argentine public was whether the peso would sharpen and whether monetary policy, which had been tightly controlled before, would be eased. Baker, an economist at the University of Belginano in Argentina, said Mr. Milley's first challenge was whether he would actually stop the bank's massive banknote printing.
According to Argentine**, Mr. Milley's reform plan has received support from many people. 17-year-old teenagers Lauriano, Agustín Mateo, speaking at the inauguration ceremony on their way to Obama, said: "This is our first election of the year. We need a different kind of leader. The predecessor gave us pain, while the Millay Church gave us a spirit that unites Argentines. Fatima, a 63-year-old retired teacher, said that the parliament had come to the celebration not out of affection for Milley, but simply to celebrate the victory of democracy. In her hometown, she said, most people are desperately poor, and Milley's election marks the end of the campaign.
Fernando Laboda, editor-in-chief and columnist for the Argentine newspaper El Nacional, said that Mr. Milley's election was a relief to most people, who were desperate for an early end to the previous rule. However, the administration of liberal leader Milley did not ease the fears and fears, and he carried out a series of unprecedented reforms in Argentina. More worryingly, Mr. Milley's political influence is not as great as it seems. This may also explain why he does not speak in parliament, but talks to his supporters outside parliament as a way to compensate for his political weakness. In addition, Millet**'s economic policy was only a proposal, and in fact, as of the 10th, people were eagerly seeking solutions to Argentina's economic problems.
The Guardian reported that Diaz, president of Buenos Aires' SAIFI IDAS group, said it was still unclear where Mr. Milley would lead the country over the next four years. "That's where we don't know......We know he's a disruptor, but we don't know what he's like.
After the swearing-in ceremony, Mr. Milley told his supporters, "We will bring the country back to its glory and Argentina to its glory." ”
