Yeah, you're totally right.

 

All those awful situations that started with the illegal debt that the current minister, caputto, took some years ago.

The difference is that Milei is being honest about the mess that Argentina is in, whereas the Peronists have been lying for decades.

No, this came from before, the beginning of this came from the big crisis of 2001, Argentina never recovered from that disaster.

Im surprise for what you know about our politics situation.

 

I have a little hope of Milei can destroy the "peronist loop"

Same thing happened to  in Margaret Thatcher's time. Everyone had been lying about the economy for decades, but even now she still gets the blame because she started to tell the truth.

[Olympian1010 8,074]

She was in power for a over decade. She made her own poor policy choices too. I'd caution that "telling the truth," and formulating policies that benefit the general public aren't the same thing. 

 

Milei "being honest" about the economic situation could be good a thing, but he still has to propose practical solutions to very real problems.

Finally the truth is being appear slowly but surely ...who is the true terrorists in this world

Don't know if the solutions he is taking are good or bad but it is intellectual dishonesty to blame Milei for hyperinflation. He has inherited a very weak economy and telling the public/investors/world the real state of the economy is a much needed first step and should be applauded. It is also a good step politically, as it shows your predecessors as bad and tries to put the blame for subsequent hardships on them. Now, let us see if he can come up with the more difficult work of practical solutions which will be politically bad as well.
