Milei Launches National Campaign in Córdoba After ATN Veto Override

He seeks momentum under a revamped campaign team after Congress curtailed his discretion over ATN transfers.

Overview

  • In Córdoba, the president opened La Libertad Avanza’s national push with a speech at the city’s stock exchange and a rally in Parque Sarmiento alongside candidate Gonzalo Roca.
  • Milei said talks with the U.S. Treasury are “very advanced” to help cover Argentina’s 2026 external debt payments of about $8.5 billion, without detailing the mechanism.
  • Congress overrode his veto on automatic provincial distribution of Aportes del Tesoro de la Nación, passing the measure 59–9 with three abstentions.
  • Following an internal review, Pilar Ramírez was named national campaign coordinator and Eduardo “Lule” Menem was sidelined after allegations tied to the disability agency ANDIS.
  • The PRO bloc, a key ally, showed open fractures after a clash between Cristian Ritondo and Silvia Lospennato over veto votes, with party leaders saying no expulsions are planned.
