Javier Milei’s chief of staff, Manuel Adorni, has publicly admitted to concealing savings from tax authorities alongside his wife for several years. Adorni justified the practice by stating it was common among Argentinians, referring to it as saving “under the table.” This admission comes amidst growing scrutiny of the Milei administration and its officials regarding financial transparency. The revelation raises questions about the government’s commitment to fiscal responsibility and its anti-corruption stance, key tenets of Milei’s campaign. Critics argue the admission sets a poor example and undermines public trust. Adorni’s statement has sparked debate about tax evasion and the prevalence of informal economies in Argentina. No further details regarding the amount of money involved have been disclosed.
