Karina Milei Launches 'Bases CABA' Student Wing in Buenos Aires

The push positions the ruling party to rally young voters in its CABA stronghold before Congress weighs the university funding veto.

Overview

  • Karina Milei, secretary general of the Presidency, led the official launch in Belgrano on September 13, marking her first public appearance since the Buenos Aires province defeat.
  • La Libertad Avanza described Bases CABA as a secondary-school student grouping that rejects “adoctrinamiento” and “populismo” as part of a broader cultural campaign.
  • The event drew Buenos Aires legislator Pilar Ramírez, Juventud Libertaria president Dante Di Carlo, and students from Colegio Nacional Buenos Aires, Otto Krause, and Técnica N°9 Ing. Luis Huergo.
  • The rollout focuses on schools and universities in the capital to consolidate the party’s strongest district and mobilize youth ahead of the October 26 legislative elections.
  • The timing aligns with the dispute over university financing after President Javier Milei’s veto, with the Chamber of Deputies set to consider the veto on September 17.
