“I have an excellent relationship with Elon Musk, I feel like he’s a savior. I could compare him to Michelangelo, to Leonardo, he seems to me to be an admirable being. This person dazzles you. I don’t understand why worry about a social benefactor”. The Argentine president, Javier Milei, says this, according to previews of an interview with ‘Quarta Repubblica’ which will be broadcast in full on Monday 16 December on Rete 4. Milei also talks about Trump. Invited by the President elected for his inauguration at the White House, as the newspaper Clarin writes, Milei will be in Washington on January 20th and he will thus become the first Argentine head of state to attend the swearing-in ceremony of a US president.
“There is no doubt, we (Milei, Meloni, Trump, ed.) are changing the vision of the world. This woke socialist plague is over: worse than a plague, a cancer. Socialism, at all times, is an impoverishing phenomenon, fueled by envy, hatred, resentment”, explains the Argentine president to ‘Fourth Republic’.
“Our enemies are socialist ideas, it is the left. China is not an enemy, there are particularities and they are working on the transition from a communist system to a freer system. We, in Europe, speak with Giorgia Meloni, at who binds me to a great friendship. The thing that struck me most about her is her courage: she is a truly brave woman, equipped with great flexibility when it comes to carrying out difficult situations. It’s admirable. I also have excellent relations with Emmanuel Macron.”
“I am against any type of abortion – Milei explains further -. It seems to me that abortion is a murder aggravated by the relationship (between the mother and the child who chooses not to give birth, ed.). I’ll tell you in these terms. Would you like to get to know Buenos Aires? When I get back, I invite her on my plane. What happens while we talk on my plane? I change my mind and no longer want her to come on my plane. The plane is mine and consequently I open the door and tell her: ‘Jump down’. What do you call all this? It’s murder.”
Speaking about taxes, Milei added: “How can taxes be good if imposed? They are theft. They are not needed. I would like to propose that they are free to choose. Who would pay them voluntarily? Taxes are paid with a gun pointed at your head. They are garbage.”
Milei obtained Italian citizenship
The Italian government has granted Italian citizenship to the ultra-liberal Argentine President, Javier Milei, who is eligible as a descendant of Italians. A source close to the dossier told AFP. Milei met Prime Minister Meloni in Rome and took part in an Atreju festival organized by Fratelli d’Italia. “Argentinians and Italians: we are united in a common lineage and deep bonds,” Milei said, without publicly mentioning obtaining his Italian passport. Milei’s sister Karina also received citizenship. Italian law requires foreigners to live in Italy for ten years before they can apply for naturalization, and children born in Italy to foreign parents cannot apply for citizenship before they turn 18.
