Overview
- Kicillof closed a multisectoral meeting in Ensenada with Jorge Taiana, union leaders and business figures from the maritime and naval sectors.
- The gathering examined the impact of presidential decree 340/2025 on ports and waterways, which both chambers of Congress have already rejected.
- Kicillof accused President Javier Milei of serving foreign interests, warned of an unprecedented attack on workers, and urged votes for candidates who will resist his agenda.
- Provincial Labor Minister Walter Correa said the push to deregulate ports, maritime and river activity threatens sovereignty and labor rights, as participants discussed priorities including the Canal Magdalena.
- Taiana, named head of the Fuerza Patria deputy list on August 17, shared his first post-list-closure stage with Kicillof as Peronism seeks to nationalize the provincial campaign before September 7 and the October 26 midterms.
