According to the first version, the national government would have agreed to pay off the debt of royalties and surpluseswhich rounds $4,000 million pesos. But, as a gesture to unblock the payment, the Milei government proposed that the province withdraw the lawsuit filed against the national State in the Supreme Court of Justice.
It is worth remembering that the Entre Ríos proposal was presented together with another lawsuit, which requested payment of transfers owed to the Retirement Fund, for a significantly larger amount, amounting to $154,000 million.
At the time of making the proposal public, Frigerio himself had reviewed that “as for the surpluses, they owe us the entire second half of 2023 and all of 2024. And as for royalties, for years we received a very unfair remuneration, almost three times less than what is received through Yacyretá,” he said then.
A reporter from Diario Río Uruguay consulted a senior provincial official about these versions of rapprochement, who limited himself to acknowledging that “There is something of that”but when asked if lifting the lawsuit was actually being considered, he responded smiling: “Let them pay first.”
