The President used a scene from Monsters Inc. to counter the fear campaign of Kirchnerism.
Milei also denounced that opposition sectors attempted to destabilize the Government from Congress, the media, and the streets. In his speech, he claimed that “they attempted a coup and it went badly,” referring to initiatives aimed at breaking fiscal balance, calls for impeachment, and actions intended to create social chaos through a failed fear campaign.
Javier Milei once again targeted Kirchnerism during his speech at the Annual IAEF Congress and left one of the most viral phrases of the day. In front of businessmen and financial executives, the President referred to a scene from Monsters Inc. to talk about the fear campaign promoted by Kirchnerism.
Milei recalled the Disney movie and described the moment when a monster tries to scare a little girl, but she laughs instead of being afraid. From that image, the president drew a parallel with Kirchnerism and stated that, once “the mask” is taken off the collectivist monsters, Argentina can leave behind decades of political and economic subjugation. “Monster K, you won't scare us anymore,” he asserted.
“One way to attack the ideas of freedom is to sow fear,” the President stated, recalling the 2023 campaign and warning that the same strategy will be used again in the upcoming electoral year. According to Milei, Kirchnerism and its allies will once again try to manipulate the electorate to halt the progress of the economic program and push society towards collectivist positions.
Milei suggested that political risk is still one of the main obstacles for Argentina to access better financing conditions. He stated that, if the ruling party succeeds in 2027 and manages to clear electoral uncertainty, the country risk could fall to levels between 150 and 200 basis points, which would open the door to annual growth of between 7% and 8%.
In this context, the President defended structural reforms, labor modernization, the RIGI, and economic opening as central tools to unleash the productive forces of the country and leave behind the model that kept Argentina trapped for decades.
