Javier Milei’s political and economic week has gone through all the tones of black and compromise his horizon as never before. The weakness has increased quickly by the combination of factors. After having been the object of a beating in a chamber of deputies that maintained two laws vetoed by the capitalist anarco that guarantee the financing of pediatric hospitals and national public universities, The government suffered another defeat in the Senate. Most of its members rejected A VETO OF THE EXECUTIVE TO THE LAW OF DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS TO THE PROVINCES. The street has been won again by the opposition, social movements, disabled and pensioners. The succession of transpiés was completed with the bad signs issued by the markets. The price of the dollar made a leap again that forced the Central Bank to sell almost 400 million from the American currency To stop the climb. Analysts predict a bleak panorama for the national parliamentary elections of October 26. They believe that Only a miracle could reverse the negative trend that began in the elections of the province of Buenos Aires, where Peronism took 14 points ahead of freedom progress. In the Congress they began the movements to quote Karina Milei for the plot of bribes in the National Disability Agency (Andis) that places the presidential sister and co -govern in the center of the scandal.
The official bewilderment is of such size that The Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, spoke of a spell to get Milei out of power. “We all know at this point that what They are trying to do is turn the president that saved the country from falling into the worst crisis in its history, “said opposition parties,” they just want to recover their business and for this they are willing to do everything. “And he added:” The plan remains solid, people It is scared for what he sees in front, communism“The theory of an alleged conspiracy also started from the Mileista deputy Silvana Giudici:” There is a countdown, a tac tac that comes from San José 1111, “he said about the apartment where Cristina Fernández de Kirchner He celebrates his sentence to six years in prison.
Milei himself went out to validate that hypothesis and connected it with the coming elections: “Voting any of the versions of the State Party is to vote that your children leave for Ezeiza (the International Airport of Buenos Aires). We already live that. We already know how it ends.” His spokesman, Manuel Adorni said for his part that in Congress “All the enemies of progress aligned.”
Adverse climate and bad omens
Government warnings do not seem to be taken into account by markets. Argentine bonds collapsed 7% in Wall Street and 14% in the capital stock exchange. The so -called “country risk” that measures the capacity of a state to fulfill its external commitments, climbed up to 1453 basic points, a number associated with financial alarms. Caputo said on Thursday night that “there are enough dollars for all” because the Central Bank is “capitalized.” The figures that specialists handle suggest otherwise. It is feared that Argentina cannot pay The maturities of the external debt that in 2026 could reach 19 billion dollars.
The Trump factor
Milei clings to his association with Donald Trump to cross the storms of September and October. The television outskirt will be present at the United Nations General Assembly on the 24th of this month and wants to make its presence in the United States into a Republican administration support ceremony. The efforts of the ultra -right began to realize an encounter with the Republican tycoon during that trip or an immediately before the electoral contest.
“Washington’s interest in sustaining Milei’s course is not new. Last April, Treasury Secretary Scott Besent, He visited the Casa Rosada and praised ´The bold economic reforms’ faced by the president, “said the newspaper ´Ambito Financiero`. He recalled that, during a meeting with investors organized by JP Morgan in the White House, the official was more precise: “If Argentina needs it, in case of an external shock and if Milei keeps the course, we would be willing to use the exchange stabilization fund (FSE)Find the brake of China’s influence “.
Relaunch the campaign
With an eye on Washington, the government has set out to relaunch the electoral campaign for October. Karina Milei appointed Pilar Ramírez, her right hand in the city of Buenos Aires, as a new coordinator of the proselytizing strategy. Three years ago, Ramírez wondered “how they can like a guy who speaks with imaginary dogs”, in clear reference to the affective links that the president says with Conan, his dead mastin, and the five clones of the pet he calls “My four -legged children “
