The Minister of the Interior of Argentina, Guillermo Francos, has advocated this Saturday for the dismissal of the Spanish Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, after the latter’s statements about the “ingestion of substances” by the Argentine president, Javier Milei.
“I don’t want to get involved in the Spanish Government, but if I were the president, I would ask him to resign,” Francos said in an interview with the Argentine radio station Radio Mitre.
Francos has also speculated on the possibility of presenting a formal diplomatic protest over what happened. “Whatever is appropriate. I believe that a protest is the least that can be done against that subject,” he noted.
“I find it outrageous. I heard that kind of stand-up that this man did. He seems irresponsible to me, he cannot expose the government of a country that is important to Argentina for its traditions, for its descendants, for the help it has provided. Argentina; a lack of respect of such magnitude from a member of President Sánchez’s cabinet seems really unusual to me,” he argued.
The Argentine Interior Minister has thus criticized the statements “offensive against the president of a sister country for many years.” “Milei is the democratic president of Argentina, a country of immigrants from Spain, which gave shelter to Spaniards and gave shelter to Spain when it was bad. Here there are tons of Spanish companies that have invested. How can it be that a character of this quality integrate a cabinet, make a statement of these characteristics and nothing happens?”, he stated.
Francos has also defended the tone of the Argentine Government’s official message in response to Puente’s statements. “Giving a quality response to a person without quality sometimes costs a lot,” he indicated.
Puente said during a colloquium on communication and social networks held this Friday in Salamanca that Milei could practice “ingestion of substances”, something that the Argentine Presidency has described as “slander and insults.”
“I saw Milei on TV and I said, as I was listening to him, I don’t know what state he was in, before ingesting or after ingesting what substances, and he came out to say that and I said, it’s impossible for him to win the elections, he dug his grave, well no,” Puente declared in a colloquium on communication and social networks held this Friday in Salamanca.
In response, the Argentine Presidency has published a statement in which it points out that “Pedro Sánchez has more important problems to deal with, such as the corruption accusations against his wife, an issue that even led him to consider his resignation” and therefore He hopes that the Justice Department will act “quickly” in the face of this case of corruption which, he added, “affects the stability” of Spain and the relations between both countries.
Furthermore, he has accused President Pedro Sánchez of “jeopardizing” the unity of Spain by “agreeing with separatists”, women by “allowing the illegal immigration of those who threaten their physical integrity” and the middle class, by “socialist policies.” that only bring poverty and death”.
The Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation has responded to Buenos Aires through social networks that its position “does not correspond to the relations of two brother countries and peoples.” The Government and the Spanish people “will continue to maintain and strengthen their fraternal ties and their relations of friendship and collaboration with the Argentine people, a will shared by all of Spanish society,” he highlighted.
