President announces Argentina’s first quarterly fiscal surplus since 2008 during a televised speech, promising his commitment to eliminating deficits wouldn’t waver throughout his term.
Argentina achieved its rare surplus by slashing three-quarters of transfers to provincial governments and halting nearly 90 percent of public works, Milei said
That isn’t glowing per se. If the public works need to be done, he just halted needed work. If it was waste then he did a good job.
I don’t know enough Argentina to know what the transfer entail but in America, that wouldn’t be good since it would halt productive work.
It seems even-handed to me.
Thanks. Patapon Enjoyer pointed out some criticisms I had missed when I read it. It sounded much more glowing in my initial read.
