The president of Argentina, Javier Milei, explained that the first time he saw himself in person with Pope Francis apologized for his criticisms: “An error that I recognized”he has confessed.
“I apologized for the first time. I had no order of magnitudes in what it meant to be the leader of a community,” said Milei in statements to the radio station Miter and collected by Europa Press.
Milei has alleged the political nature of the criticism he launched. “Keep in mind that I am philosophically anarco-capitalist. Those figures in my head were not, they did not exist,” to which the Pope responded with a “Don’t warm yourself, they are youth errors”according to the Argentine president.
Before being elected president of Argentina, Milei criticized the Pope in social networks and came to qualify him as “Malignant representative on Earth”.
