Governors from all over the country will meet at 6 p.m. at the Federal Investment Council (CFI) with the aim of unifying positions and polishing the Budget 2025 sent by Javier Milei to Congress. Most provincial leaders will participate remotely, although some They will be present at the venue.
As reconstructed Scopethere were conflicting versions about the organization of the summit. From the orbit of a handful of leaders they indicated that The call was issued by the CFI with the objective of discussing logistical issues of the districts and, in addition, discuss “the law of laws” issued by the ruling party.
However, in the institution they distanced themselves from the event, although they acknowledged having received the request for the use of the building.
Other voices pointed out that the organizer of the conclave was the provincial chief of Chubut, Ignacio “Nacho” Torresone of those who will say present at the event, a version that they ruled out from their orbit. They will be Axel Kicillof (Buenos Aires) and Gustavo Melella (Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica and South Atlantic Islands), while other leaders such as Martin Llaryora (Cordoba) and Sergio Ziliotto (La Pampa) will participate via Zoom.
For its part, Alberto Weretilneck (Río Negro) was at the Casa Rosada this Thursday and met with the Chief of Staff, Guillermo Francos. However, later, he left again for his province.
Budget 2025: governors meet at the CFI
In short, it will be a transversal meeting, which will include both opposition governors and allies and dialogueists. Those confirmed could also be joined by Maximiliano Pullaro from Santa Fe, Gustavo Valdés from Corrientes, Rogelio Frigerio from Entre Ríos, Marcelo Orrego from San Juan and Raúl Jalil from Catamarca, among others. Everyone would do them from their districts.
As he told Scopethe governors will be key to the approval of the Budget 2025. This week, The pressure from the Casa Rosada on the provinces caused the session in the Chamber of Deputies promoted by the opposition to modify the law that regulates the use of the DNU to fail.
After receiving provincial leaders from the PRO and the UCR separately, Javier Milei He managed to put an end to the advance of Peronism and scored a new legislative victory. Now, the leaders are waiting for a bargaining chip that will be reflected in the bill.
Javier Milei’s diplomatic turn and the division of the leagues
In your strategy, The President was effective in fragmenting the provincial leagues. Not only did he dismantle Together for Change (JxC) by receiving his chiefs separately, but he also carved inside the Peronism, promoting the escape of Osvaldo Jaldo (Tucumán) from Unión por la Patria (UP) and also distancing the Catamarcanian Raúl Jalil.
A similar scenario occurred with the provincialisms that until last year were part of the celestial alliance. Gustavo Saenz (Jump), Hugo Passalacqua (Missions) and Alberto Weretilneck (Río Negro) had played their chips for Sergio Massa in the 2023 elections. Today they are refractory to the Peronist army.

Presidency
The ruling party hopes to gain the support of the parliamentarians of those districts and shore up the 2025 Budget to close a positive year in Congress, where, with few structures, La Libertad Avanza (LLA) managed to approve the Bases law and support the Mega DNU and the vetoes to the University Financing law, to the retirement reform.
So things are, The Government is now negotiating from a position of strength, after having had several positive weeks. On the contrary, the opposition is more atomized in the heat of the internal movement in Justicialism and the condemnation of Cristina Kirchner. For the provinces, the Budget debate is one of the last possibilities to snatch funds from the libertarian administration.
Public works, pension funds, energy and transportation are some of the main demands that the leaders share transversally.
