"Now she's defending another program": Patricia Bullrich once again questioned Victoria Villarruel.

Security MinisterPatricia Bullrich once again addressed Vice President Victoria Villarruel and questioned her alignment with Javier Milei's administration due to the numerous public clashes between the executive branch and the vice president. Last Thursday, Bullrich and Villarruel engaged in a dispute on social media over the Senate session where several initiatives were approved that "put fiscal balance at risk."
In an interview on the program "¿La Ves?" on TN, the head of the Ministry of Security asserted that Villarruel should " support President Javier Milei in his role as Vice President of the Nation." "Breaking with the presidential institution is breaking with the reason why Argentines voted for her," Bullrich stated, adding: "The conscience of whoever holds that position must be supportive ."
Along these lines, Bullrich stated that " Villarruel's support for the government program is very low " and dismissed the vice president's suggestions to "reduce the Milei brothers' trips abroad and reduce the SIDE funds to finance the pension increase." "It's an expense of $30 million versus $17 billion; there's no comparison," he asserted.
Regarding the session that caused unrest within the National Government, the minister said Villarruel should have " sat down and said there was no session ." "Congress wasn't open, the Senate wasn't convened. There were legislators who didn't know there was a session; that should be announced in advance. They have to send the agenda first; all the senators learned about the issues from the newspapers," she explained.
The minister echoed one of the president's strongest statements regarding the dispute, when he called his running mate a "traitor." Although Bullrich avoided using this term, she suggested that the vice president "entered the government with one program, but now defends another." In this regard, she also suggested that Villarruel "wants to return to the Argentina of the past with inflation."
