the strategies that the Government analyzes in the face of a legislative setback due to the veto

“There is only one thing that can be the PRO. If the PRO voted against an extra budget item that increased spending, and that means inflation or emission, the only thing they can do is veto this law. Because, if not, the vote of those who already voted against would be inconsistent with not accepting that this law has to be vetoed. In addition, the national budget is being discussed,” stated the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich in statements to Scope after participating in a meeting at the Casa Rosada.

This is the official position: not to discuss whether or not more funds are appropriate for the Universities but rather where they are obtained from. ““The scope and place to have that discussion is the framework of the national budget,” officials insist.

The analysis that is carried out inside the presidential environment regarding the march is that it was “dirty” by the presence of the “representatives of the caste” and leaders such as Pablo Moyano.

They rescue the motivation of the lawsuit as Bullrich said “It is a fair demand, like so many fair demands that the country has.” But, he clarified, “the Government has made a determination, and that is that we have a budget that definitively eliminates inflation, that definitively eliminates the deficit, that definitively eliminates an elephant state, and for this, all sectors have to understand that if there is a game that grows, there will be a game that decreases,” explained the minister.

This is the position that the president himself, Javier Milei is responsible for emphasizing on every occasion he has. “There are things that are not negotiated with this Government: the zero deficit,” they claim.

Support

In the official discourse regarding public education, both on and off, it is in favor. “No one is against public education, I am a defender of quality and free public education, at all three levels, I have said it and I maintain it”emphasized the Minister of Security.

At the same time, he insisted on the need to take into account that “we have a zero deficit budget.” Likewise, it is important to ensure the quality of spending and gave as an example: “what is the relationship that universities have today between the number of students, the number of graduates, review the duration of the degrees, generate an evaluation of the quality of the students, generate an audit of expenses, and many things that should not be denied”, in clear reference to the vice-rector of the UBA, Emiliano Yacobitti. In fact, the performance of Alejandro Álvarez, Undersecretary of University Policies, in the debate they had after the federal university march. “He clearly cornered Yacobitti,” they commented.

In the debate, the official took special care to clarify that the issue of teachers’ salaries will be discussed: “We are not going to close that discussion. “We warned that we were going to have a path of recovery, but that discussion has to take place within the Congress,” in reference to including the corresponding items within the framework of the national budget.

In a test of support, Milei this Thursday went to the Human Capital headquarters and had lunch with the minister, Sandra Pettovello on whom Education and the Alejandro Alvarez, Undersecretary of University Policies

Justice

In the event that Parliament does not ratify the veto, the idea would be to appeal to Justice. But, in the presidential environment they are betting that related legislators leave firm the greater financing provided for in the Law, but with the derivation of the corresponding items that must be taken from other areas.

For this reason, although it is not ruled out that it may eventually be possible to resort to Justice, the idea is to avoid reaching that stage. “First let’s wait for it (the rejection of the veto) to pass,” Bullrich responded and when asked if the Executive would take the issue to Justice he responded “Let’s wait, let’s not put the cart before the horse.”
