“I leave you this tweet so that it is clear to everyone: I am not going to deliver the fiscal balance in any way. I will defend the box with a pure veto if necessary. Through pure fiscal deficit they impoverished the country, so in no way am I going to allow this to be repeated. VLLC!!!”, noted the president this morning.

Milei had already left open the possibility of a presidential veto in the event that the proposal is approved by the Senate in the Congress of the Argentine Institute of Finance Executives. In fact, the President accompanied her message with a fragment of his speech, in which he assured: “They believe that it is easy to support these maniacs, degenerates of public spending to break our fiscal balance. I warn you, in case you are interested, that any project that you send from Congress, that wants to break the box and blow up this country, I am going to veto it, I don’t give a damn.”.
LLA did the same and also issued a brief statement on its social networks. “Just in the Chamber of Deputies of the Nation, 160 legislators have just voted for a Law to bankrupt the National State on the same day that salaries were increased,” they questioned.
Through an agreement between Unión por la Patria, the UCR and other dialogue blocs, the opposition managed to deal a hard blow to the ruling party after midnight by arriving in the Chamber of Deputies with the half-sanction of a new alternative retirement mobility formula to which the Government established through a decree of necessity and urgency.
After almost 14 hours of session, the initiative, which arose from the unification between the proposals of Kirchnerism, the UCR, We Make the Federal Coalition and the Civic Coalition, garnered 160 positive votes, 72 rejections and eight abstentions.
To respond to legislators through social networks, Milei used a publication attributed to “Milei Shelby”, which said “Fiscal degenerates, because 160 opposition deputies approved a project to increase spending by 15% and break the balance fiscal”.
