Guedes in Dujovne: "The Argentine government has all the absolute support of Brazil"

The Minister Nicolás Dujovnewho landed this morning in Rio de Janeiro to meet her Paulo Guedes, received a "strong support" from his Brazilian colleague. "We have clearly indicated our full support for the Minister and President Mauricio Macri," said Guedes. His position clearly shows that Brazil's commitment is to "stabilize" the Argentine economy and maintain the Macri government's economic and political project.

In recent days, the Brazilian media has given a lot of information on the "financial crisis" in Argentina, as well as the difficulties that President Macri would face during his re-election. They reflected in particular the skeptical views of international investors, for whom a "lack of control" of the exchange rate and inflation justifies the outflow of foreign capital and the simultaneous rise of country risk.

With the acclaim of Dujovne, Guedes bets that the Argentine economy can overcome the storm and thus guarantee the durability of an "economic and political philosophy" with which the government of Bolsonaro is consubstantiated. It was in this categorical sense to emphasize: "President Jair Bolsonaro has a huge affinity with President Mauricio Macri and myself with Minister Dujovne."

From Dujovne's portfolio they commented on Infobae that the meeting dealt specifically with issues related to Bolsonaro's next visit to Buenos Aires, agreed for 6 June. They also discussed issues related to the free trade badociation being negotiated between Mercosur and the European Union, in view of the upcoming presidential nomination of the bloc to be held in the country. "There was agreement on the need to have a regional bloc more open to trade with the world," they said, noting that during the roundtable, it had been proposed to "redefine what the Mercosur wish".

With this meeting disappear, in principle, the fears expressed by Bolsonaro himself when yesterday had told reporters that Brazil "does not want a new Venezuela" to warn that "the opposition can return (in Argentina) and that worries us ".
