"The problem is not that Macri is aggressive in the debate but that he continues to lie"

The author of Conversations in the Cathedral also said that "Macri did not want to proceed with the most radical adjustment for a moral problem. Because the Argentineans they had already had a critical situation with Mrs. Kirchner. But gradualism has proved fatal. Because not only has this not solved the problems, but now these problems are attributed to the Macri government, which has tried to moderately deal with a critical situation. "

As for the future of Argentina, Varga Llosa said that it would be "very serious" for the country and justified Macri's failure to say that he "had received a country in ruins". He said that Venezuelans would suffer the triumph of Peronism.

"Argentineans are facing a crucial election – it starts – I hope that the Argentineans do not commit the folly of giving power to Peronism. If that happens, Nicolás Maduro's Venezuela would receive blatant support from a Peronist government and the one from Latin America would be very serious, "he said.
