After the sparks with governors over the Budget, Javier Milei restarts the tour of the provinces

Javier Milei will resume its tours of the provinces this week with a rally that will include stops in Tucuman and Cordovatwo districts governed by leaders of dialoguist Peronism. These will be the first landings that the President will be carried out in the territory after the crossfire with leaders of various teams for not enabling the debate in Congress for the Budget 2025.

After speaking on Cadena Nacional on December 10 to review his first year in power, Milei traveled to Italy, where he held a meeting with the premier. Giorgia Meloniamong other activities. Now, he will restart his local agenda and return to the road to receive an award and speak to businessmen and economic leaders.

Specifically, the libertarian will visit Tucuman on Thursday, where he will be honored with the Juan Bautista Alberdi award. One day later, on Friday, he will step Cordova to participate in the inauguration of the new headquarters of the Local Stock Exchange.

Distinction in Tucumán and meeting with Osvaldo Jaldo

In Tucumán land the Justicialist governs Osvaldo Jaldowho broke with Unión por la Patria (UP) to support the Bases law. Since then, it has become one of the pillars of Freedom Advances (LLA) both in Congress and among the league of provincial chiefs. On July 9, it hosted the May Pact, which had its original headquarters in Córdoba, although the postponement of the signing opened the door to sticking it to Independence Day.

Jaldo was also entertained with a barbecue by Milei at Quinta de Olivos, along with his peers from Catamarca, Raul Jalil; missions, Hugo Passalacqua; and jump, Gustavo Saenzall chiefs who provided key votes to support ruling party projects in the Chamber of Deputies.

In Tucumán, the President will receive the “Juan Bautista Alberdi” award, an initiative of the Federalism and Freedom Foundation, which, as Ámbito said, the Uruguayan leaders have already received. Julio María Sanguinetti and Luis Alberto Lacalle. The event will take place in a hotel in the center of the provincial capital and, in addition to the president, will also have the presence of the governor, who could be joined by Jalil from Catamarca.

Beyond the good times that the relationship between Javier Milei and Osvaldo Jaldothe northern province is not exempt from the official armed forces that Karina Milei drives throughout the country. At the end of October, the Secretary General of the Presidency landed there with Martín and Lule Menem. The vice head of the Interior also participated in the rally, Lisandro Almiróna native of the district. Weeks ago, Almirón led a tour of the province and is emerging as the main libertarian sword there, after the departure of Ricardo Bussiwho lent his party structure to Milei’s candidacy in 2023.

At the same time, the violet troop added the powerful sugar businessman to its ranks. Jorge Rocchia Ferrowho maintained various flirtations with Peronism throughout his career. However, perhaps with future intentions to compete for the first local magistrate, Rocchia Ferro

The open-air fight in Tucumán’s Justicialism starring the current president and the senator Juan Manzur It could open a way for the emergence of new actors. In the Casa Rosada they will seek to take advantage of that opportunity in 2025, with more ambitious objectives for the 2027 gubernatorial elections.

Visit to Córdoba, in the midst of PRO crisis

The second station in Milei’s log will be Cordovawhere he will participate in the inauguration of the new headquarters of the Stock Exchange. There he will speak before the local red circle, in an event that will also be attended by the governor Martin Llaryora. When asked, the vernacular management ruled out a meeting between the two. “He will receive it at the airport and then participate in the inauguration, which is in front”they detailed. The presidential landing will come in the middle of a complex time for politics in the province governed by wayward Peronism.

Part of the tension these days goes through the exchange lines. The decision of Mauricio Macri The intervention of the Córdoba PRO unleashed a crisis in the party, which until then was led by the national deputy Oscar Agost Carreño, who is not a member of the yellow bench in Congress, but rather the Federal Meeting, the space that commands Miguel Ángel Pichetto.

After the former president’s move, made official at the summit that the space held last week at the Abasto hotel, Agost Carreno filed an appeal for annulment before the electoral Justice. It should be remembered that the legislator had called for internal elections for February 2025, seeking to deactivate Macri’s move. As he told Scopethe former president is now exploring an agreement with the UCR Córdoba, with Rodrigo de Loredo at the head, to contain the advance of LLA in one of its main bastions.

The move of the Macri senators to provide a quorum in the session that finally ended up dismissing Edgardo Kueider was read as a return for the constant mistreatment that Macri denounces by the ruling party.

The Mediterranean district is also coveted by the Casa Rosada. In November, Karina Milei and his crew landed on Mediterranean land to make LLA official as a political party. Along with them were also the national deputy Gabriel Bornoroni and Federico Sharif Menem, responsible for the libertarian youth in the country and nephew of the president of the Chamber of Deputies.

For his part, the governor Martin Llaryora It balances and seeks not to lose prominence. With the anointing of Cristina Kirchner At the head of the PJ, in Cordoba they ruled out the return of the president to the national party. For that reason, Llaryora will have to fight with his own weapons both Milei and Macri and the UCR, the three big players who are betting on giving a show of authority in the province in 2025.

Last week, a platoon of motley-coated governors paraded at the Ministry of Economy to sign with Minister Luis Caputo their adhesion to the Regime for Extinction of Reciprocal Obligations, a consolation prize in the absence of a Budget for 2025.

In addition to the already mentioned Jaldo and Jali, the Peronist signed the agreement Sergio Ziliotto (La Pampa), the radical Leandro Zdero (Chaco) and Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos), from the PRO.
