Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State of the United States, thanked Macri for the "hard work" that he deploys for "reforming the Argentine economy"

After having done a praiseworthy eulogy for Chile's economy To discuss the situation of other neighboring countries, Secretary of State Donald Trump, Mike Pompeo, added: "And, finally, in Argentina, the country decided that the old models offered no results. these solutions do not work anymore. This is not what they are looking for. "

Among those present, the Chilean President, Sebastián Piñera, and his Minister of Foreign Affairs, the writer Roberto Ampuero.

"There is a saying in English," continued the secretary of state, still referring to Argentina, "which indicates that the popular is not always the right thing and that the good thing is not always popular. The president (Mauricio) Macri is trying to reform the Argentine economy. "

And, expressing the support of his government, he added: "We thank you for that, the Argentineans will be better. The government is taking tough but important steps to create sustainable growth. It is a road with obstacles and it is not safe. But that gave results. Argentina has recently returned to international credit markets after 15 years. "

Exalted expressions that are in agreement with those of Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), who recently said at a press conference in Washington that "It would be silly to turn your back on the work in progress", as suggesting that the next elections should ratify the current economic course.

Mike Pompeo, on the other hand, closed his reference to Argentina, with concepts that also seemed to allude to the issues of the upcoming presidential election: "This is how prosperity is built, how democracies are strengthened, citizens who opt for brave visions, with countries facing their own internal problems and building strong external relations. We can not help but see how important this transcendental time is. "
