The Argentine politician and economist Javier Milei values the freedom of the individual. The state is the enemy and should be as small as possible, he believes. The market must be free. “But if I’d had a child, I wouldn’t have sold it,” said Milei in a sensational interview about child selling in June last year. He had then argued for the individual’s right to sell their own body parts as they wish. The body is my property, he said. In his ideal society, most things have a price tag: You can sell both children, weapons and organs. Newly installed President Javier Milei greeted the people on Sunday with his sister Karina Milei, whom Milei calls “the boss”. He has compared her to the Messiah, while he is only the one who preaches her message.

He won the last round of the presidential election with 55.7 percent of the vote. For the voters, he is the man who will finally put an end to corruption and triple-digit inflation, he will get the country’s shaky economy in order. Javier Milei broke with tradition and chose to speak to the people instead of the elected representatives in Congress after the inauguration ceremony in Buenos Aires. Photo: Alejandro PAGNI / AFP – There is no money, he said during his speech to the people outside Congress yesterday. If he does not initiate severe cuts in the government and the privatization of state-owned companies, next year’s inflation will end at 15,000 percent, Milei claimed without explaining how he arrived at the figure. Inflation in Argentina could end up at around 200 percent this year. “It’s the legacy” of the previous government, he said to applause from his voters who occasionally shout “freedom”, “Argentina” and that the political “caste is scared”. – There is no alternative to shock therapy, he said, adding that no other president has inherited such a disadvantaged Argentina. Milei’s vice-president is lawyer Victoria Villarruel, who, among other things, is against self-determined abortion and same-sex marriage. She has written a book about the terrorist attacks carried out by the guerrillas in Argentina in the 70s, before the military dictatorship took power and kidnapped 30,000 in its war against the left. Photo: Matias Baglietto / Reuters He also warned the trade unions, which traditionally belong to left-wing parties, that if they strike, demonstrate and block traffic, yes, they will have their social benefits cut. One of the most important things he will do is close the public deficit, which in Argentina has been paid by taking out loans or printing money. He has said that he wants to “blow up” the Central Bank and at the weekend his followers held a tealight celebration outside the premises as if it were a funeral.

Photo: Hilda Lishaugen Nyfløt / news Party formed two years ago Economist Javier Milei first became known as a heated panel debater in Argentina during the corona pandemic. In a few years he formed his own party, La Libertad Avanza (LLA), Freedom’s Progress in Norwegian. Milei decided to become a politician after receiving a call from God, according to journalist Juan Luis González, who has written the unauthorized biography “El loco” about Milei’s rise to power. Journalist and writer Juan Luis González in the news magazine “Revista Noticias” wrote the biography “El Loco” about Javier Milei and warns that Milei cannot distinguish between fantasy and reality. Photo: Hilda Lishaugen Nyfløt / news – 2020 was a very special year for Milei. There was a pandemic with lockdown, he had an argument with his best friend, and then his psychologist died and he stopped going to therapy. Then he had this outburst and started saying that God had chosen him and given him a calling: To enter politics, says Gonzalez to news. Milei was elected as a Member of Parliament for LLA in 2021. – What I have been most surprised by is how Milei, who has been a figure in the media for seven years, has constantly talked about her dog Conan as if he were alive, while he in reality is dead, says journalist González, who usually works for the news magazine “Revista Noticias”. Milei has a special relationship with her dogs, all of whom are cloned in the US from the same dog Conan, who died several years ago. Milei has long used mediums to talk to the deceased dog, who he is supposed to ask for advice. Photo: Screenshot Milei’s dog Conan, from whom he will receive advice through a medium who talks to dead animals, was cloned in at least four copies before he died. When Milei received the presidential scepter on Sunday, an ornate staff, it was engraved with the heads of the dead and the living dog clones of the English Mastiff breed. They are all named after the famous economists Milton Friedman, Murray Rothbard and Robert Lucas. President Javier Milei received the ceremonial scepter from now ex-president Alberto Fernández. The end is decorated with the heads of his dogs. Photo: ALEJANDRO PAGNI / AFP – It is impossible to understand what Milei thinks is fiction and what he really believes, or whether he is unable to separate reality from what is going on in his head, says González, who has warned against just this. “Strengths from Heaven” Milei is surrounded by young liberals in their 20s, who have helped him reach out on TikTok and Instagram. They call themselves “The forces from heaven”, after a few years ago Milei uttered this phrase taken from a Jewish liberation in the year 166: “Winning a war does not depend on the number of soldiers, it depends on the forces that come from heaven ». Brothers Erik (22) and Ian (18) Binder both wear caps with the inscription “Make Argentina great again”. They like both Trump and Milei. Although they are not members of the party and “Strengths from Heaven”, they have stood up and supported them for several years. Photo: Hilda Lishaugen Nyfløt / news His spiritual leader is a rabbi and he often quotes Jewish texts. “I didn’t come here to lead lambs, I came to wake up lions,” Milei often says. After being elected president, he prioritized a trip to New York to visit a deceased rabbi’s grave in addition to other meetings. Difficult childhood In several interviews, Milei has told about a childhood characterized by violence. On one occasion, he was beaten up by his father while his sister Karina passed out next to him. The sister was taken to the hospital and the mother called Milei home and said it was all his fault. Karina Milei is Javier Milei’s sister and has an important role in the party La Libertad Avanza. She has always stood firmly by her brother’s side. Photo: Pablo PORCIUNCULA / AFP – I don’t talk to my ancestors, he said in an interview with the TV channel Telefe in 2018. – You call them that, you don’t say parents? asked the presenter. – No, because I do not share their ethical and moral values, replied Milei, who said he had not seen his parents for seven to eight years. “I don’t talk to my ancestors,” Milei told the journalist in 2018. Now the president and his parents are talking together again. Photo: Screenshot – But for me this was an important experience, because Kissinger (Henry Kissinger, former US Secretary of State), says that the best moments are crises because then those who have fooled themselves and the incompetent disappear. Those who remain are those who have courage. I can be under maximum stress and find solutions like that, while other people can’t take anything anymore, he said. Although he was a lonely child, he was a good goalkeeper on the soccer team in Chacarita as a teenager. Since then he was a vocalist in the rock band “Everest”, which played Rolling Stones songs. He studied economics. – Just as he is in life now, he was a goalkeeper. He threw himself to all sides without caring. He was strong, big and half crazy, that’s why we called him “Den gale Milei”, former teammate Gabriel Bonomi told the newspaper Infobae. Milei and her parents have become friends again, and both appeared in Congress for the presidential ceremony yesterday. A young supporter celebrates Javier Milei as president this weekend. Milei has been popular with young people. Many thousands of Argentines have left the country due to bleak future prospects in favor of Europe and the United States in recent years. Photo: Hilda Lishaugen Nyfløt / news – Karina is Moses Milei, on the other hand, has always had a close relationship with his sister Karina, whom he calls “the boss”. She is the woman behind the entire election campaign strategy of the party. She also manages the finances of La Libertad Avanza, which is not run according to the usual hierarchical and democratic party structure. Karina is called the “boss” of the party La Libertad Avanza, or Freedom’s Progress. Photo: Luis ROBAYO / AFP In September, a journalist on the TV channel A24 asked about their relationship, and Milei replied: – You know that Moses was a great leader, but he was not good at preaching. That’s why God sent Aarón to preach, Milei explained as she wiped away her own tears. – Karina is Moses and I am just him who preaches, he continued. The sister has run a car wheel shop and has taken courses to be able to talk to animals through telepathy. By Milei’s side is also her girlfriend, actress and impersonator comedian Fátima Flórez. Presidential candidate Javier Milei and his girlfriend Fátima Flórez visited the Colon Opera House in Buenos Aires before the election. “Milei, rubbish, you are the dictatorship” sang many in the audience during the break. Milei is highly controversial. Photo: Ramiro Souto / AP Named the dogs after economists Milei’s great idol is the libertarian Murray Rothbard, author of the book “Ethics of Freedom”. In that book, Rothbard argues, among other things, that parents have the right to stop feeding their disabled children so that they die. Milei’s party colleague and ex-girlfriend, Lilia Leomine, stated in the election campaign that she will work for a new law that allows men to renounce paternity if the woman has tricked the man into impregnating her. “Since women have the privilege of being able to kill their own children, and renounce the role of mother, why should men by law have to support a child”, she argued, citing Rothbard’s ethics book on X, formerly Twitter. The president of Ukraine greeted the pair of siblings, who together manage La Libertad Avanza and now Argentina on Sunday. Volodymyr Zelenskyj was the only one to have a bilateral meeting with Milei on his first day as president. Milei supports Ukraine. Photo: Reuters Formed alliance with the conservatives Despite the fact that Milei went to the election to get rid of the political, corrupt caste, he made a secret agreement with the conservative PRO party after the first round of elections. Patricia Bullrich stood as a presidential candidate for the “Juntos por el cambio” coalition, but when she did not get enough votes to advance to the last and decisive round of elections, she joined Milei’s election campaign as a supporter. Now she has been rewarded with becoming security minister. Photo: DIEGO LIMA / AFP Now he has appointed several of their long-standing politicians as ministers in his government. The “Juntos por el cambio” coalition, of which PRO was a part, is deeply divided after its leaders made the secret pact with Milei. Milei has a minority in Congress and is dependent on gathering votes. He has previously said that if the elected representatives do not vote through his issues, he will hold referendums. He does not believe in climate change and wants to go back on the law that allows self-determined abortion. news has been in contact with Milei’s party La Libertad Avanza in connection with this article, which writes that Milei does not have the opportunity to be interviewed.
