Finally, a few hours after beating the deadline for the registration of electoral alliances in the province of Buenos Aires, the agreement was confirmed so many times announced between the PRO and Freedom advances. The delegates of Milei met with Santilli and Ritondo to announce the agreement at a press conference at the Libertador Hotel, a favorite place of the ruling party where Milei stayed for two and a half months after winning the ballot in 2023, paying a sum that exceeded 2.5 million pesos.
“Today we join forces with freedom progress to defeat populism And start rebuilding the province “begins by saying the statement that Cristian Ritondo published minutes later in his X account.” We understood something that people repeat us in each meeting: go together. Enough of dividing change. Enough of speculation, “he said.
The rumors of the alliance were growing over the months and intensified particularly after the very famous performance of the PRO in CABA, the district that knew how to be its bastion, being relegated behind Adorni and Santoro. After long negotiations and different versions, the agreement is finally completed, although it will remain to wait ten more days to finally know how the lists will finally be integrated. “The agreements are without conditioning. Those who are not sitting here today is because they came to raise conditions. The wind changed in Argentina,” said Sebastián Pareja, the ship owner in the province. A message that seems to say a lot about who will have the last word for the assembly of the ballots.
Another fact that looks like an indicator of how the ruling finished phagocytizing macrismo is the null reference to the PRO brand. The aesthetics of the staging was 100% official, with the logo and the seal of lla and the violet color dominating the scene and without traces of the yellow color or of any other symbology characteristic of macrismo. Images that seem more an integration without conditions to the ranks of mileism than to an agreement between two different parts.
A placing polarization at the worst moment of the government
Karina Milei also expressed himself with a statement in her social networks and made it clear what the campaign strategy will be: ” Kirchnerism led Argentina to the absolute decline and today is entrenched in the province of Buenos Aires. Together with the pro we understood that there is no place for speculation: We join forces to end populismonce and for all. “
The shared message has a single objective: to install that the legislative elections are a kind of ballot between Peronism and the ruling party, where there is no place for third parties. What is hidden in the background is the lousy moment that crosses libertarian management.
Milei is at the worst moment of their relationship with the governors, to the point that this July 9 canceled his trip to Tucumán after the displacement that the leaders announced. While debating how to face tensions for the distribution of funds to the provinces, it also suffers the loss of control in Congress with successive defeats that remember its weakness again. And if that were not enough, to the turbulence on the financial horizon, the movements in the exchange rate and the headache generated by the JP Morgan report on the viability of its economic plan, The climate of popular discontent not only grows but begins to express itself in greater conflicts and workers’ protests for dismissals and salary: In recent days, the workers of the SECCO Energy company (cutting the Good Ayre Highway), the workers of Georgalos (in Panamericana), those of the Inti or those of Roads with a large mobilization of more than 2,500 against the Deregulator Decree of Sturzenegger.
As if it were not enough, this Tuesday the inflation fact of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires advanced a new news with the rebound of inflation that rose from May 1.6 % to 2.1 % in June. Data that advance something similar with the indicator at the national level, which until now has been its main asset in the midst of fierce adjustment, the fall of consumption, the loss of employment and the indebtedness of the families that has been registered and that significantly worsens the quality of life of millions of people.
It is in that context that Libertad advances bets on a campaign that only focuses on polarization against Peronism and Kirchnerism in particular. “We are going to win the battle and we will beat Kirchnerism to finish it forever. This is Kirchnerism or Libertad,” Karina Milei said.
Kirchnerism led Argentina to absolute decline and today is entrenched in the province of Buenos Aires.
Together with the PRO we understood that there is no place for speculation: we join forces to end populism, once and for all.

The fact of absorbing the pro (or what remains of it) is an important part in that strategy. The problem is that the government’s political agenda goes further and further from the problems that the vast majority of the population has to live.
