Javier Milei lifts allied governors and feeds rumors about possible electoral agreements

The game of meetings and disagreements added a new chapter from the government claims so that the districts lower or suppress local rates, such as gross income, stamps and other taxes. However, the libertarian management took advantage of the scrambled river to deepen coincidences with related presidents, such as Mendoza Alfredo Cornejo and Salteño Gustavo Sáenz.

Government wink to Mendoza with electoral projection

This Wednesday, by case, the vice governor Mendoza, Hebe Casadoof the PRO, visited the Casa Rosada and met with the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, in a meeting in which the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich, also participated. and the administrative secretary of the provincial Senate, Pablo Priore.

On the National Board, the Radical Administration Alfredo Cornejo It is one of the best tuning shows with Javier Milei. In fact, at the end of last year, Cornejo himself opened the door to a possible electoral alliance with the libertarians in Mendoza. “There is a communion, a hard core of coincidences. I would not rule out that we could go together, ” Evaluated the leader.

With that scenario as a backdrop, the visit of the Vice Governor sought to expand the links with the president through his sister and right hand. As he could find out Scopethe meeting was given in a framework of cordiality, in which various situation of juncture were addressed, such as privatizations. It is worth remembering that the state firm Impsa, based in the Cuyana province, could be the first to pass to the private hands of the Milei Administration. This week will be key, since it will be defined whether there is agreement or not.

In the Casa Rosada, meanwhile, they see Casado as an ally on the Mendoza board. The situation there is complex. On the one hand, the pro is in charge of Gabriel Pradineswho defeated Casado internally. Pradines, in turn, is the alfil of the vice president of Aerolineas Argentinas, Omar de Marchiwho founded his own party, The Mendoza Unionwhich challenged Cornejo in the 2023 elections.

Both the vice governor and Marchi are closer to the scheme of lla than the driving of Mauricio Macri. However, the confrontation that they maintain could complicate an eventual electoral confluence between the parties. From the orbit of the party holder they lowered the price to the meeting and assured that it was “A merely institutional visit.” “The agreement La Libertad advances – Pro is re against Green in Mendoza”, They pointed out.

For its part, a source aware of the meeting commented: “Karina seems important to the role of Hebe, not only because she is vice governor, but because it is a link, a bridge with the local government.” The voice said that there was no talk of alliances in the talk but the “coincidences in key issues and the ideological affinity that will surely allow the president to support otherwise.” In fact, the president himself shared the publication of the meeting on his social networks.

Subsequently, Minister Bullrich brought breast on social networks and said: “The cultural battle is essential to banish years of decline and make Argentina big again.” “Mendoza is a key ally in this path of deep transformation that leads Javier Milei. With courage and decision, we are ending with the impoverishing model and returning the greatness to our country “, pointed out.

Casado’s landing at Balcarce 50 took the green light of the radical governor. The play occurred in full bleach of the PRO, which comes from losing various leaders in the hands of the violet troop. The senator Luis Judgethe mayor of three of February, Diego Valenzuelaand the Salta Gustavo Olmedo are some of them. In addition, in the city, three legislators who respond to Bullrich made the leap from the yellow block to the force of Milei.

Javier Milei’s praise to Gustavo Sáenz

Another case to pay attention is that of Salta Gustavo Sáenz. Union ally for the country (UP), quickly acquired a dialoguistic profile with libertarian management until it became one of its allies nationwide. In the last week, it was the president himself who praised him on Twitter.

“Excellent governor Gustavo Sáenz and ministers Patricia Bullrich and Sandra Pettovello working on solving specific problems of Salta both in security and assistance “, Milei published his X account. The official message referred to the new measures announced at the border between the town of Aguas Blancas and Bolivia as part of the Güemes Plan.

Later, the northern paid: “They chose us to give answers and solutions, and we are fulfilling our word. Drug trafficking will never step hard in Salta. Thank you Mr. President. Together, working as a team, national and provincial government, we will achieve it.”

The praise is not less: in the recent past, the libertarian mandamas had chosen the governors as staunch enemies. It was not, anyway, the first time that Salta Mandamás is held from the presidential office. Last October, Milei congratulated him for the inauguration of the lithium hydroxide plant.

“I extend the greeting to all the governors of the North who are promoting, by the hand of rigi, Argentine mining that is so important to our country,” completed in its publication. Saltain tune with what Nation intends, suppressed the Paso Local and will have provincial elections on Sunday, May 11, while on March 5 it will overcome the deadline to present the electoral alliances.

Last December, Karina Milei and Martín Menem They disembarked in the district to formalize the party, in addition to anointing the expro Alfredo Olmedo Like your vernacular bishop. While the door did not close, on that occasion Menem marked distance with the governor. “It has its own seal, its own path and its own references. Decisions on alliances will be taken at the time but Sáenz is not a reference of our party in Salta,” clarified.

GUIÑOS PRO TO GOVERNMENT

There were also winks from the provinces to the Government. The leaders of the PRO Ignacio Torres (Chubut) and Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos) sent bills to lower local taxes, as claimed by the Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo.

This Wednesday, the Chubutense legislature approved the fiscal relief package sent by Torres, which They consist of the exemption of rural real estate tax and the payment of gross income to livestock activity for fiscal period 2025, as well as involve the repeal of the “fox rate” included in Law XVII No. 52, Aliquota considered “obsolete and retrograde “by the governor himself.

Both he and Frigerio look with good eyes in an electoral alliance with freedom advances in their provinces. In La Libertad, they want to arrive with their own candidates in each district. A good part of the negotiations will depend on the flexibility of that position.
