President of Argentina, Javier Miley called Spanish President Pedro Sanchez a “coward”. by whom, according to him, he felt “attacked.”
About 15 hours after leaving the plane that brought him from Madrid, where, among other things, he attended a meeting with businessmen and gave a speech at an event organized by the Spanish far-right party Vox – which started this diplomatic crisis -. Miley linked Sanchez to Kirchnerism in an interview with a TV channel All news (TN).
“(Pedro Sanchez) He’s so cowardly that he had to send me to beat up women. “It’s a kind of furious cowardice,” Miley said, referring to statements made against him by the Spanish government’s second vice-president, Yolanda Diaz; and on science, innovation and universities – Diana Morant.
According to Milea, this strategy will work by former Argentine President Alberto Fernandez (2019-2023) to provoke a reaction from him and be called “misogynistic”.
“What’s happening in Spain Here it is not independent of the actions of Kirchnerism. (Action in Spain) Kirchnerism is being promoted here. This is coordinated with Kirchnerism,” he said.
In his speech last Sunday The president called Sanchez a “scoundrel” and his wife Begoña Gomez “corrupt.”although, as his spokesman Manuel Adorni said at a press conference, he himself said on television that he did not quote them directly and that if Sanchez felt that he was being referred to, “it shows that he is a dirty man.”
Following these statements, the Spanish government summoned its ambassador in Buenos Aires for consultations. Maria Jesus Alonso, and later summoned the Argentine ambassador in Madrid, Robert Bosch, while the Argentine executive repeated in various fields that it was Spain that should apologize for the attacks Buenos Aires believed had been committed against Miley.
“I’m not going to apologize from any point of view… “If I was attacked” – Miley repeated.
The far-right leader insisted that the Peronist wing is linked to the late former President Nestor Kirchner (2003-2007); his wife, two-time president Cristina Fernandez (2007–2015); and Alberto Fernandez, whose former head of state was vice president. This is due to the response of the Sanchez administration.
“Alberto is Sanchez’s advisor” insisted Miley, who also noted that the head of the Spanish government is “exploiting this crisis for political purposes” “because he has problems in Spain and needs to polarize”, while at the same time joining Kirchnerism “to sabotage” his government.

Last Saturday Sanchez noted that “far-right international” – referring to the Vox event in Madrid, which was attended by leaders such as Miley or the Frenchwoman Marine Le Pen – chose Spain for the meeting because its society represents “everything they hate and hate.”
