As they revealed during the last hours from Casa Rosada, President Javier Milei will sign tonight the decree that calls for extraordinary sessions in Congress. According to Adorni’s publication on the social network
The current call leaves behind Adorni’s frustrated announcement by the same means for an eventual call for extraordinary sessions in Decemberbut in the end the government did not obtain the necessary consensus with the collaborationist blocs to make it happen.
The Government It mainly tries to advance with the undemocratic electoral reform project in general, but mainly with the elimination of Simultaneous and Mandatory Open Primaries (PASO)a matter to be negotiated with the PRO and the UCR, who use this instance to settle their internal disputes in national positions and in the territories. From the side of these allies of the Government, the removal of the obligation of this electoral body could be postulated but not its elimination.
Milei aims to eliminate simultaneous and mandatory open primary PASO as part of an antidemocratic electoral reform, which seeks to restrict political participation and further consolidate the power of the large parties. Through the removing state financing and the incentive for greater business contributions, the aim is to limit the capacity of the left and smaller parties to compete in elections. Which translates into less political diversity and weaker representation of sectors that are not aligned with the interests of the large traditional parties and economic power.
Besides seeks to concentrate the voting intention on his figure or those who, together with his iron circle, choose for the candidacies for the seats in the different districtswithout the possible bad luck of having to compete with figures from the PRO or the UCR in possible alliances.
The delay in finalizing the call for extraordinary sessions shows that The Government has not yet confirmed the number of votes necessary to approve the projectssuch as the elimination of the PASO – which will enter commissions of the chamber of deputies -, or the document of the controversial Comodoro PY judge, Ariel Lijo – which must be dealt with in the first instance in the Senate.
Along with these topics, the spokesperson pointed out that the agenda includes other projects from the portfolio of Minister Patricia Bullrich such as the reiteration regime or the “anti-mafia law” that They seek to increase the weight of the repressive apparatus of the Statewhich is used centrally against the majorities. Clean Sheet It will also be part of the game. A way for the libertarian administration to negotiate with the PRO and the UCRwho in September, they consider, did not help their legislators enough when obtaining a quorum to discuss it.
The decree that would be signed tonight and would be published on Monday, sIt will be followed by meetings between Guillermo Francos and representatives of the allied blocs.like Cristian Ritondo from the PRO, Rodrigo De Loredo from the UCR and Miguel Ángel Pichetto from Encuentro Federal. This is how the negotiations will continue for the votes that the government needs andn the context of the discussion between Milei and Macri regarding the electoral strategy for this year’s legislative elections.
