Presidential debate 2023: summary and the best phrases

THE CLOSURE OF SERGIO MASSA

«This minute is probably one of the most important of my life. I want to tell you which path Argentina has to choose for the next four years. Go back, jump into the void or bet on a production and development model. I want to talk to you that you are a mom and protect you from those who promote the free sale of weapons. To you who are a scientist and teacher, and who believe in our researchers and in public education. To our SMEs, to our workers, and tell them that we are going to fight for the distribution of income. Argentina is coming out of a crisis, perhaps the worst of the last 20 years, and the worst is over. On October 22 you have an important minute, because you will surely decide for the next four years. I ask you to go without anger or hatred. I ask you to go look for the Argentine flag in the dark room.»

THE CLOSURE OF JUAN SCHIARETTI

«Compatriots, as I told you last week, it is not written anywhere that we Argentines are doomed to failure. Kirchnerism and Macrism led us to failure, whose candidates today are Sergio Massa and Patricia Bullrich, that’s what led us to failure. I also believe that there are other proposals that were not applied anywhere in the world and mean a trip to the unknown, and they did not show management experience anywhere. For my part, in addition to showing my management at the head of my province that made it progress and that is why they continue to support us with their vote, I defended the interior because I am the only candidate from the deep interior of the homeland. I defended the interior against the centralism of the AMBA and I ask you to accompany me with your vote, to be a normal and federal country.»

THE CLOSURE OF PATRICIA BULLRICH

«I am a fighter, I fought all my life against the powerful and corrupt who believe they are masters of everything, against those who ruined this beautiful country, against those who abuse the power they have. And, I assure you, you don’t defeat these guys with nice speeches but by being stronger than them. I always faced them and as president I will continue to face them so that you have the country you deserve, so that your son does not leave the country, so that you can live and work in peace, so that the corrupt do not continue to steal from you, so that the boys have 190 days of school, not one less. On October 22, power changes, and you have it in your hands. Use it to say no to Kirchnerism, and to say yes to a change of truth, the change of Together for Change.»

THE CLOSURE OF JAVIER MILEI

«In light of the contents expressed in the debate, I feel that the political Caste present here is teasing us. This debate, like the previous one, ends up being an irritating pantomime. The politicians who make 40 are enriched and impoverished the Argentines of good need to explain on open television, how they are going to solve the problems that they themselves have caused us. They should be ashamed. However, none asked for forgiveness, none resigned a privilege, none tried to end the caste model, none stepped aside despite their resounding failure and of course: they are not going to do it because they are screwed to the carts. They cannot be the solution to the problem because they are the problem, therefore, I ask all good Argentines who are watching the debate to ask themselves: do you think that a different Argentina is possible with the same as always?»

THE CLOSURE OF MYRIAM BREGMAN

«We have a huge challenge ahead of us and we have to give a strong message, we are neither submissive nor accomplices, this October 22 there are 5 presidential formulas and we ask you to choose according to your convictions, your values, that you do not resign yourself, you also know the importance of having left-wing deputies in the congress who are not going to sell, they are not going to turn around, we are not going to get out of this with individual saviors, this fight needs you to get involved. We need to face what is coming, defend our rights and go for more, this campaign takes it in your hands, you know that we do everything on our lungs, let’s spread it all over the country, let’s take it to every place. Raise the left, let’s raise the left.»
