Nahuel Sotelo, a controversial figure known for his right-wing views and strong ties to Javier Milei, has been appointed as the new Secretary of Cult and Civilization in Argentina. His appointment has sparked controversy, with critics highlighting his past comments and stances on human rights and environmental issues. Sotelo has been vocal about his belief that the military junta’s victory in the Dirty War was essential for Argentina’s democracy. He has also advocated for the repeal of a law that acknowledges the military dictatorship’s crimes and the existence of 30,000 disappeared people. His stance on environmental issues is equally contentious. Sotelo has openly argued for increased pollution, stating that a more polluted Argentina signifies a more industrialized nation. His appointment has been met with criticism from various groups, including human rights organizations and environmental activists, who view his beliefs as deeply concerning.
