In his final hours, President Javier Milei retracted his statements during his presentation at Expoagro, where he assured that in Alberto Fernández’s administration “he had lunch and dinner with Cristal champagne” and clarified that it was “incorrect information.”
“They tell me that the information about the consumption of champagne in Olivos in the previous administration was incorrect. Apologizing when you are wrong is appropriate,” Milei wrote.

Milei’s clarification came after former President Alberto Fernández came out to the intersection and asked that “whoever said it deny it immediately.”
