The march against the veto on educational financing It was felt throughout the country and moved the political board, managing to unite the opposition. At the same time – and in line with the latter – he gave the Government a new story to justify the measure that was published in the early hours of this Thursday.
In the corridors of Casa Rosada they were in charge of minimizing the call and They assured that there was a loss of call of 70% when compared to the mobilization of last April 23. The truth is that, beyond the intention to relativize the measure, in several official offices They are beginning to wonder if there is room for a higher level of adjustment and – above all – at what cost.
The loneliness in which La Libertad Avanza stood still in the face of the demand for a larger educational budget forces the Government to recalculate its movements while the PROwhose deputies were considered until recently “heroes” and its president Mauricio Macri “friend”, maintains a striking silence.

Therefore, Although in public it maintains a harsh stance, in voiceover the Government received the impact and understands that it must address the issue and seeks a solution to the conflict. Within this framework, next week there will be a new meeting with the authorities of national universities, set for next Monday. As this media learned, at that meeting an option that would surpass the unions would be presented. Although they clarify “the figure has to have Milei’s approval.”
Another of the cards that are being considered is that the issue be discussed within the debate by the Budget 2025. In that sense, the ruling party would be willing to increase some of the expendituresas confirmed by official sources to this medium.
But also, In recent months, a bill has been brewing between the Education and State Modernization portfolios, which proposes changes in compulsory and higher education. The fine print was written based on several objectives that were outside the Bases Law.

Among the main points of the official initiative it stands out that Universities will be able to charge fees to non-resident foreign students and determine “basic principles for the allocation of university resources”.
Furthermore, the initiative promotes that external university evaluations be carried out within the first 6 years from standardization (public universities) and provisional recognition (private universities), and that these must be repeated every 10 years. In the case of higher education, the project establishes that universities must offer remedial courses or entrance exams, but they must not have a selective and exclusive nature.
In the ruling party they understand that “it is not the time” to discuss this bill, although they assure that “it is already ready” and they seek to let time pass a little.
At this time the Government does not rule out resort to justice if necessary. They also admit that “that idea is still far away,” although it is on the table of alternatives.
