The almost textual dialogue between Macri and Alberto | COUNTRY

"It's better than you," Macrì replied.

– They will consult me ​​and I will give them my opinion, but you are the president until December and, as they have broken the whole program, you have to talk to them.

"We do not break the program."

"What are you saying to me? They have not reached the goal of inflation, they have not reached the goal of exchange , they close the year with a budget deficit of 1.7%.

"We did everything, we got engaged."

-There are two possibilities. Tell Dujovne not to lie to you anymore, or sit back and read the agreement then tell me what they did.

"I'm glad we can talk, I appreciate your gesture," said the president who is leaving.

"And I will be available directly whenever you deem it necessary."

"It was hard to talk with your partner."

The second time Macri talked about Cristina, Alberto interrupted him:

"I called you because you wanted to ask me for a service, not to hear Cristina's questions."

The dialogue continued with the request for help to limit the control of the exchange rate. Alberto agreed but wanted to indicate the causes of what was happening.

"On Monday, you said this was happening because markets were scary for us and you blame those who voted for us." You are responsible for what happened. By insisting on the fact that we are Venezuela, it seems that the markets have believed them.

"But I did not say anything about it."

"During those three days, you have not said, but you have been campaigning with that for six months."

"Yes, but Cristina is a friend of Chavez."

"What does Chavez have to do, who died six years ago?"

"She borrowed money."

Already very boring, Fernández cut this absurd dialogue with a president of alienated reality:

"But what are you saying?" Cristina has never asked Chavez anything. It was Nestor and me, and only once, when all funding sources were closed to us.

"Well, it's the same …

-You do not know what you say. I can help you calm the dollar. I do not have time to talk about that.

Macri suggested they take a picture together in public. Alberto refused. He told her that even Macri would not suit him. They agreed on the points of information that Macri would give, who took note of them and complied with them.

The Fernández Declaration has effectively reduced the exchange rate fever. The $ 60 mentioned by Fernandez was not a whimsical or desired figure, but the previous level plus devaluation. To say goodbye and in a more serene tone, Macri asked if Alberto wanted to ask him anything.

– That you pay attention to the president of the central bank and that you take care of the reserves. That you act as president and not as a candidate, that you direct them to Peña and Dujovne, because apart from that, they lost all credibility, they have their own cabinet on the war footing.

"It is not easy." Who would like to take over now?
