Argentine government assures conformity with adjustment plan

Buenos Aires, Dec 15 (Prensa Latina) Spokesman Manuel Adorni assured today that Argentine President, Javier Milei, supports and is in agreement with the measures announced by the Minister of Security Patricia Bullrich and the Minister of Economy Luis Caputo, which were rejected by trade unions.

In a press conference, the spokesman stated that the Government will support all actions to enforce the law and will inform daily provisions “on the removal of privileges”.

We are absolutely satisfied with the market’s reaction to Caputo’s urgent plan. It is good to understand that today inflation is around 3,678 annual percent with a daily increase of one point, which leaves us on the verge of a catastrophe that we want to avoid, he pointed out.

Likewise, he specified that the adjustment on the operating expenses of the policy will be around three billion dollars per year.

He also announced that the number of drivers in the national public administration will be reduced by 50 percent, as well as the existing fleet, and announced the sale of two airplanes belonging to the company Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales.

Social plans with intermediaries will be frozen, he said and avoided answering a question about a possible salary increase or payment of bonuses for vulnerable sectors.
