Organizations have denounced that the government does not invest in food, not even being able to distribute the food it has in stock.

The Minister of Defense of Javier Milei’s government in Argentina, Patricia Bullrich, is responsible for purchases of more than 12 million dollars in weapons and ammunition for the repressive forces of the southern country.

Two resolutions published this Thursday in the Official Gazette show that half of the purchase was directly in dollars and covers the acquisition of pistols, shotguns, patrol cars and 4×4 trucks for the federal forces.

Javier Milei is going to try to start some war against a “communist state” to attempt to be a protectorate of the US, I know it. Like invade Venezuela or some shit.

The US State Department is thrilled with how the “Ukrainian Model“ has worked, debt trap “friendly” nation A to the gills and also drain “enemy” nation B of blood and treasure… evil but effective.

I think it’s more likely these munitions are there to slaughter protestors tbh. 12 million isn’t really a lot to start a war, but it is plenty to suppress your own people.

Milei doing that 180 on currency exchange with China tells me how thin his ideological veneer is.

It’s not a purchase, it’s a rental.

How are they supposed to put down protests and uprisings without all the armaments.
