Although Milei will emphasis in his speech on the economic objectives achieved by his managementsuch as macroeconomic stability, the reduction of the exchange gap, the decrease in inflation and the fiscal surplus, He will also make a projection of the initiatives that are in the pipeline for the second year of his mandate.
As this media learned, the message will have a duration of 30 minutes and will be recorded this Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. Summarizing 2024 and projecting 2025 will be the two objectives of the president’s speech.
Pension and tax reforms: two of Javier Milei’s objectives for 2025
The policy of zero deficit (or rather surplus) will continue to be the fundamental pillar of government management. For this reason, Milei is not willing to give in to increasing allocations, as some provincial leaders demand.
“The purpose is to eliminate all superfluous expenses generated by the State,” summarizes an important collaborator of the Casa Rosada. But not everything will be “chainsaw”. The Government of La Libertad Avanza seeks to radically transform Argentina based on its ideology. In this sense, as far as he was able to know Scope exclusively, at the direction of the first president, The technical teams are working on “deep reforms” that cover the tax, pension, labor and criminal areasamong others.
In matter tax, The Executive Branch aspires to reduce the amount of taxes to five or six. The intention is to have the project advanced so that the head of state can present it to Congress in the speech at the opening of ordinary sessions 2025, on March 1, as announced in the Casa Rosada.
The initial objective is to simplify the tax system. The ruling party warns that a significant initial reduction in the tax burden is ruled out, since the priority is to maintain balance in the Treasury accounts. The national government also considers that each province must define its tax policy.
Another of the important reforms that the Government is developing, also for next year, consists of change the pension regime contemplating, among other aspects, the elimination of special regimes.
The official assessment is that, if all privilege regimes were abolished, the minimum retirement could be tripled. If this elimination of the privilege regimes were applied, the minimum retirement, which today stands at $259,600, would go to 778,800.
National network to celebrate the first year of mandate
As this media learned, the message scheduled for 9 p.m. will be recorded, although it is unknown if it will be in his office at the Pink House or in the White Living Room. There it will seek to recognize this year’s social effort and begin to install its reform agenda for next year.
It would be the seventh national channel of president Javier Mileiafter the announcement of the DNU 70/2023 days after taking office; another two for management evaluation prior to the end of their first semester in office; another two for May 25 and July 9; and the presentation of the project Budget 2025 (which was ultimately not approved).
Meanwhile, the event to commemorate the anniversary of the assumption of the presidential mandate will be austere as far as I can tell from this media, given that there will be no celebrations. An intimate toast is expected at the Casa Rosada between Milei and his collaborators and the typical greeting from the balcony of the Government House is not ruled out, as is usually done at special events.

On that same day, although not jointly, the President of the Nation will hold meetings with five globally recognized economists, including Tom Sargent, winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2011 (shared with colleague Christopher Sims). The other four are Argentine and have extensive international experience: Fernando Álvarez, Guillermo Calvo, Sara Guerschanik and Juan Pablo Nicolini.
Mauricio Macri will also celebrate December 10, amid the tension with Milei
For his part, former president Mauricio Macri called for a dinner with his former ministers that same day, to remember that they took office 9 years ago. It will be in the house of Francisco Pancho Cabrera, former Minister of Production of the Cambiemos administration at that time.
Some are betting that this time some figures who were part of Macri’s government team at the time will not be in the game. Among them Federico Sturzenegger (former head of the BCRA), former Minister of Finance Luis Toto Caputo and former Minister of Economy Alfonso Prat Gay.
Let us remember that the outputs of Prat Gay and Caputo of the Macri government were not on good terms. Meanwhile, Jorge Macri will also celebrate his first year at the head of the Buenos Aires City Headquarters.
The celebration of the leader of the PRO Mauricio Macri sIt occurs at a time when there are doubts about the link with President Javier Milei. The failed Clean File session generated a short circuit that the Government tries to correct by sending a new Clean File project.
This is what he expressed shortly after the session in Deputies to discuss the project ended: “Do we or do we not want a country without corruption? Are we really interested in the fact that convicted corrupt people cannot continue holding public office or do we want to simulate and use that weakness as an instrument of pressure in other negotiations?” Macri pointed out from his social network account X (former Twitter).
And he added: “Does anyone care about corruption or are we already resigned? I know that to a part of politics, even to a part of public opinion, it may seem that there are more urgent things. I am convinced that with leaders corrupt there is no future”.
From the ranks of the PRO they criticize lowly and they argue that if the original project was bad, why did they not object to it in the debate in the Commission and thus avoid the scene in the Chamber of Deputies last week. Suspicions of an agreement between the ruling party and Kirchnerism continues to be one of the premises why the session failed.
