Viggo Mortensenthe actor who played the character Aragorn in the successful saga “The Lord of the rings”had severe statements against Javier Milei in the context of a radio report that he gave in the Spanish media RTVE. In this way, Spain once again became a problematic scenario for the Argentine president, who last week was the recipient of an outburst from the Minister of Transportation, Óscar Puente.
Taking into account that Mortensen spent part of his childhood in Chaco, Buenos Aires and Córdoba, he is often consulted about the situation in our country. On this occasion, the prestigious actor was considerably emphatic when it came to criticizing Milei’s figure.
But in addition to expressing his concern about the situation in the country, the movie star sent out a series of hostile definitions towards the libertarian leader, whom he called first a “clown” and then a “doll of the right.”

The practice of professional and critical journalism is a fundamental pillar of democracy. That is why it bothers those who believe they are the owners of the truth.
The multifaceted artist born in New York commented on the Spanish radio program that he maintains contact with friends who reside in Argentina and that he already has some opinions formed about the first months of the libertarian administration.
“I have my opinions, I read, I observe and I talk to my friends in Argentina…”Mortensen acknowledged and then stated that the situation in the country “she’s screwed”.
He also indicated that Argentina, in his opinion, is “a people of great endurance”, capable of coping “horrible situations like these”, in reference to Javier Milei.

On the other hand, The actor targeted “the Spanish conservative media” who maintain that Milei is “a genius who is lifting the economy.”
Later, the great interpreter of “The Lord of the Rings” pointed out that only 1% of the Argentine population “suits this clown” and also called Milei “right-wing doll manipulated by others”.
