"The writer, journalist and essayist Jorge Fernández Díaz won the Cavia Prize, awarded by the Spanish newspaper ABC for journalistic works, for an article published in the Argentine newspaper La Nación titled 'Welcome to Right-Wing Populism' ['Bienvenidos al populismo de derecha'], where he delivers strong criticism of Javier Milei.
The award, which has been given by ABC for 105 years, was decided by a jury chaired by the director of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE, for its acronym in Spanish), Santiago Muñoz Machado, and composed of journalist Pedro García Cuartango, writer Andrés Trapiello, EL PAÍS deputy director Borja Echevarría, and ABC director Julián Quirós.
'This is incredible,' he told Clarín Cultura, still surprised by the award he will receive on July 8 in Madrid, at a ceremony traditionally attended by the King and Queen of Spain."
