Overview
- From Ushuaia, the president cast the Oct. 26 legislative vote as a choice between deepening his reforms or returning to the past, asserting declines in poverty and indigence during his tenure.
- He toured Newsan’s plant and defended Tierra del Fuego’s tax regime as proof that lower levies spur production, while criticizing union resistance to import liberalization.
- A strong security deployment accompanied his walkabout, counter‑demonstrations grew, and the central campaign event was scrapped after only brief remarks by megaphone.
- The presidency plans a multi‑province tour to fasten local slates to Milei’s image, with officials citing institutional contacts with governors and noting no direct talk yet with Governor Gustavo Melella.
- Security Minister Patricia Bullrich opened new Policía Federal and Gendarmería facilities in Mendoza, Governor Alfredo Cornejo confirmed an upcoming Milei visit, and the government is seeking renewed coordination with PRO leaders including Mauricio Macri.
