[Saba Sports News] Previously, the Vice President of Argentina expressed support for Enzo Fernandez in the incident. She stated, “Argentina is a sovereign and free country. We have never been a colony or treated as second-class citizens. We have never imposed our way of life on anyone. But we will not tolerate such treatment towards us. Argentina was built by the sweat and courage of Indians, Europeans, Creoles, and blacks. No colonial power can intimidate us for singing court songs or revealing truths they wish to hide. Admit it, hypocrite. Enzo, I support you. Lionel Messi, thank you for everything you do! Long live the Argentines!” However, a few days ago, Karina Milei, the secretary-general of the Argentine Presidential Palace, visited the French Embassy to apologize for the Vice President’s remarks. The French ambassador accepted the apology. The Argentine government explained that it felt it was important to apologize as they believed the Vice President’s comments had crossed a line.
