Argentina Pres. Javier Milei Declares War At U.N. In Fiery Speech: ‘Long Live Freedom, Dammit!’

Milei absolutely laces into 'Socialist' UN in first speech to United Nations.

"Argentina will abandon its policy of historic neutrality and will be on the vanguard in the struggle for the defense of freedom," he said.
Argentina President Javier Milei declared war on the global Left during a rousing speech at the United Nations this week where he announced that his country would no longer remain neutral and on the sidelines.
The 53-year-old libertarian economist — whose policies have started to rapidly reverse Argentina’s decline with inflation rates falling, rental housing becoming more available and affordable, and economic growth outpacing forecasts — said that he became a politician “following the resounding failure of more than a century of collectivist policies that destroyed our country.”
He warned that the U.N. has veered off course in recent decades from its original charter of ensuring major global war did not erupt again by adopting principles centered around the belief that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

Milei said that the organization changed from being “a shield to protect” mankind to “a leviathan with various tentacles purporting to decide not only what each nation state should do, but also how all the citizens in the world should live.”
He warned that the 2030 Agenda that the U.N. was pushing was nothing more than “a supranational government program that is socialist in shape.”
“It purports to resolve the problems of modernity with solutions that afflict the sovereignty of nation states and violate the right to life, right to freedom, and property of persons,” he said. “It’s an agenda that purports to resolve poverty, inequality, discrimination with legislation that simply furthers these issues, because the history of the world has shown that the only way of guaranteeing prosperity is by limiting the power of the monarch, by guaranteeing equality before the law, defending the right to life, to freedom, and to the property ownership of individuals.”
He said that the U.N. committed “crimes against humanity” by advocating for lockdowns around the world in response to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
“In this same house, we that purport to defend human rights, we have also included bloody dictatorships in the Human Rights Council, including Cuba and Venezuela, without reproach,” he said. “In this same house, which purports to defend the rights of women, we’ve allowed on CEDAW, the CEDAW Committee, countries that punish their women just for showing their skin. In this same house that had voted against the State of Israel, which is the only country in the Middle East to defend a liberal democracy, we have simultaneously shown a total inability to respond to the scourge of terrorism.”
“On the economic level, we have promoted collectivist policies that undermine economic growth, violate property rights and disrupt a natural economic process in preventing the most left behind countries to freely enjoy their own resources,” he continued. “[The U.N. has] imposed regulations and prohibitions specifically because of countries that wish to develop themselves. We have further established toxic relationship between global governance and international credit bodies demanding that those countries that are most left behind commit resources that they don’t have to programs that they don’t need, making them perpetual debtors.”
“We have also seen ridiculous policies with Malthusian stances, such as zero emissions policies that harm all poor countries, policies related to sexual and reproductive rights when birth rates in Western countries are plummeting, announcing a somber future for all of us,” he continued. “We have also seen that the veto of the permanent members of the Security Council has begun to be used in the defense of the specific interests of a certain few. That’s where we are today, with a powerless organization, powerless to provide solutions to the true global conflicts.”
He said that the U.N. should be focused on Russia’s criminal war against Ukraine, which has resulted in hundreds of thousands of people being killed, instead of wasting time and money “imposing on poor countries how they should and how much they should produce, who they should do relations with, what they should eat, and what they should believe in.”
“I’d like to issue a warning here,” he said. “We are coming to the end of a cycle, collectivism and the moral posturing and the woke agenda is coming up against reality. There are no further credible solutions to the real problems of the world. If the 2030 agenda fails, as recognized by its own promoters, the response should be to wonder whether or not this was an ill-conceived program from the outset, and we should accept this reality and change what we’re doing.”
“The same thing always happens with ideas that come from the Left,” he continued, noting that leftists “design a model in line with what human beings should do, and when individuals freely decide to act otherwise, they have no better solution than to restrict, repress, or cut off their freedom.”
“In Argentina, we’ve seen with our own eyes what they have done at the end of this path of envy and sad passion: poverty, anarchy, and a total lack of liberty,” he continued. “We still have time to choose another direction. I want to be clear so that there’s no poor misunderstanding here. Argentina is going through a profound process of change currently and has decided to embrace the ideas of freedom. These are ideas that say that all citizens are born free and equal before the law, that we have inalienable rights granted by our Creator to life, to freedom, and to property.”
He said that these new principles the country is adopting will guide its international conduct moving forward.
“We believe in the defense of life for all,” he said. “We believe in the defense of property for all. We believe in freedom of expression for all. We believe in freedom of worship for all. We believe in freedom of trade for all. And we believe in limited government for all. And in these times, what happens in one country has a swift impact on others, and we believe that peoples should be able to live free of tyranny and oppression, be it political oppression, economic slavery, or religious fanaticism. This fundamental idea shouldn’t be mere words. It should be supported by our acts, diplomatically, economically and materially, through the joint force of all of the countries that stand up for freedom.”
He warned that Argentina will no longer support “any policy that implies restricting individual or trade freedoms, nor the violation of natural rights of individuals, regardless of who promotes these or how big the consensus is in this institution.”
“For this reason, I’d like to officially express our dissent on the Pact For The Future that was signed on Sunday, and I invite all nations of the free world to support us, not only in relation to this pact, but also in the establishment of a new agenda for this noble institution,” he concluded. “That is the agenda for freedom. From this day on, you should know that Argentina, the Republic of Argentina, will abandon its policy of historic neutrality, and will be on the vanguard in the struggle for the defense of freedom, because, as Thomas Paine said, ‘Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.’ Long live freedom, dammit!”
