Argentina has made a formal protest against neighbouring Uruguay after President Jose Mujica was caught describing the Argentine leader as “an old hagâ€.By Harriet Alexander3:57PM BST 05 Apr 2013
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/Mr Mujica, a former guerrilla leader, spoke disparagingly of Cristina Kirchner without realising his microphone was turned on at a press conference.
He also said that she was “worse†than her late husband Nestor, president before her who died suddenly of a heart attack in 2010 and had an eye condition.
“This old hag is worse than the cross-eyed man,†he told Carlos Enciso, the governor of Uruguay’s Florida province.
“Cross-eyes was more of a politician, she’s just stubborn.â€
He criticised his neighbouring leader for her overtures to Pope Francis, the former Archbishop of Buenos Aires, who she wants to mediate over sovereignty of the Falklands.
“You’re not going to go to an Argentine pope explaining him what’s a map, what’s mate (Argentine tea) and what’s a flask.â€
