Overview

  • Kicillof and top Fuerza Patria candidate Jorge Taiana closed a multisectoral meeting in Ensenada focused on maritime, naval and waterway issues, centered on the impact of decree 340/2025, already rejected by both chambers of Congress.
  • Kicillof accused President Javier Milei of risking jobs and sovereignty, urged turnout to elect legislators who would curb the national agenda on Sept. 7, and scheduled a joint appearance with Taiana in La Plata.
  • Javier Milei was set to headline a car caravan in Lomas de Zamora this afternoon; local mayor Federico Otermín criticized the disruption but called for peaceful expressions from residents.
  • Karina Milei and Chamber Speaker Martín Menem planned a Thursday trip to Corrientes to back libertarian candidate Lisandro Almirón, with party sources noting travel could be affected by flight availability as the ANDIS audio scandal continues to weigh on LLA.
  • The Buenos Aires provincial vote precedes the Oct. 26 national elections, with Milei warning about potential fraud under the traditional ballot system and Kicillof countering that such claims signal an unwillingness to accept defeat.
