Javier Milei, live: the Government’s latest measures

by time news

Through Decree 1067/2024, published in the Official Journal, the Government has established a new⁤ change to the organizational​ chart. Darío Lucas,‍ Undersecretary for Presidential Affairs -body ‌dependent on the ‌General secretariat⁤ of the Presidency, led by⁣ Karina Milei- he was​ promoted to the rank of secretary of state.

“By virtue of the particular nature of ​the objectives assigned to the Undersecretariat, directly linked⁤ to the action ‍of⁢ the ​President of the nation, it is appropriate to attribute to⁢ its ⁤holder the⁤ rank and hierarchy of⁢ Secretary of State”, we read in​ the document signed by Javier ⁣Milei⁤ and ​the head ⁢of general staff, Guillermo Francos. We also inform you: “The expenses necessary to ‍comply⁢ with this provision​ will be covered by ‍the ‍specific items of the General Secretariat”.

After the release of⁣ a video in which they threatened drug ⁢traffickers Massimiliano Pullaro Yes Patrizia Bullrichthe governor of ​Santa ​Fe warned: “They clearly intend to ⁢intimidate ⁢public policies,but nothing will ‌make ‍us go back.” He also commented that as soon as the recording arrived, he contacted⁣ the Minister of​ Security to “do computer studies⁢ to find out where it came from”.

He further expressed:‌ “We have set limits in prison; A year ago, prisoners did ⁣whatever they wanted from there. This ‍has‌ gradually stopped happening and we have developed ‌a very broad preventive policy so that ⁣there is no impunity.“This annoys criminal ⁣organizations ⁤and, perhaps,​ with this type of action‌ they‌ try to influence us.”

One of‌ the most‌ prestigious publications in the world, The economistplaced​ at the centre of the cover and as the main ‍theme Javier Miley ​and underlined‌ a phrase from the president: ⁣”My contempt for the State is infinite.” something even more curious is the​ title of the interview that was conducted with him: “What can Javier⁣ Milei teach Donald Trump?” The Government,of course,rejoices in this centrality. ​ Beyond his role ​as sovereign, Milei feels ​like an‍ international prophet ‍ and he​ likes to highlight that aspect ⁣and dimension that he has ​acquired.

We reach this point​ after having‍ generated many questions about ‍whether it really constituted a stable political phenomenon, a coherent center of gravity.⁣ He came to power by chance during ​a very important crisis of representation, experienced especially in recent years,⁢ especially after the pandemic. He arrived without a party, without a program, without​ a team, without deputies, ‍senators, governors or mayors. It⁣ did not arrive despite these shortcomings, but⁣ thanks to ‌them, becuase ⁢an‌ important sector of Argentine society decided to repudiate customary ​politics, electing⁢ someone who embodied all the presumed⁢ virtues of anti-politics.

The president Javier Miley the Serbian tennis player received this Monday‌ afternoon⁤ novak ⁣Djokovic ‍ at the official ⁣residence ⁤of Olivos. The tennis player arrived in the country days ago to attend the farewell of⁣ his Argentine counterpart Juan Martin Del Potro.As‍ reported by Casa Rosada, ‌the match ‍was requested by Djokovic, who currently ‍occupies fourth place⁢ in the world rankings. The meeting lasted more than an hour.

The ⁣President quickly accepted the request when approached and ⁣it ⁣was decided that it would be in⁣ Olivos. The appointment ⁤took place⁣ in​ the middle of ‍an intense week ⁣for the president, who will participate in the closing of the proceedings ⁢this​ Wednesday Conservative Political Action⁢ Conference (CPAC) in Buenos Aires and on Friday he will⁢ travel to ‍Montevideo to ‍participate in the Mercosur​ summit.

Through the Resolution 1289/2024, published ⁣this Tuesday morning in Official Journalthe Government has extended, for⁣ the⁣ only time, the deadline for completing‌ the process ⁢of joining the Asset regularization regime. The measure ⁤reaches‌ those people who ‍where unable to complete the ‌program in the initial phase of the‍ program,​ which‍ ended on November 9, due⁤ to “systemic” problems. Interested parties will⁤ have until December 6th to complete the regularization of assets‍ and procedures.

Jon Lee Andersonweekly journalist The New Yorker and author​ of one⁢ of ‍the most recognized biographies of Ernesto “Che” Guevara, among‍ many ⁢other books, published this Monday an extensive profile ‍of the president Javier Miley for the American magazine.⁤ For the record, Anderson interviewed⁤ Milei, but also economists, social⁣ leaders and other‍ North American and Argentine sources. He⁢ reconstructed the “flamboyant and erratic” profile of the head ‌of⁢ state, his‌ “extreme right”‍ policies and his adjustment which, as he himself describes, fell mainly on pensioners.

“The Other ⁢MAGA President”says the title of the latest edition. MAGA stands ⁤for ​Make America⁤ Great Again, or in this case, Make Argentina Great Again. The ‌relationship⁢ and similarities between Donald Trump and Milei are one⁣ of the axes ‍of the note. It also‌ addresses the connection between ⁢the Argentine‌ head of state and businessman and ⁢now US official, Elon Musk. “They were exploring the ‍lithium business with him,” he says in one‍ section ‍of the article.

What impact will Decree 1067/2024 have on​ the future of ​governance in Argentina?

Time.news Interview: Understanding the Recent Changes ⁢in Argentine Politics

Editor: Welcome back to Time.news. Today, we have ‍the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Laura Mendoza, a political analyst specializing in ⁤Latin American politics. Dr. Mendoza,thank you for ‍joining us.

Dr. Mendoza: Thank you for ‌having me! It’s a pleasure to be hear.

Editor: Let’s dive right in. Recently, the⁣ Argentine government published⁢ Decree 1067/2024, ‍which has seen Darío Lucas promoted from Undersecretary for Presidential Affairs to Secretary of State. What do you think‍ this change signifies for the governmental landscape?

Dr. Mendoza: This promotion certainly reflects an attempt ⁤by President Javier Milei to‌ consolidate power and streamline the management. By elevating Lucas’s rank,⁣ the government is signaling‍ a more assertive and‍ possibly centralizing approach to governance, emphasizing the critical role of the Presidential Affairs office in connecting⁤ with the president’s initiatives.

Editor: The decree states that such a promotion​ is ⁢warranted due to the Undersecretariat’s objectives⁣ being directly linked to the president’s actions. Do you think this will ⁤create a more dynamic interaction between various branches of the government?

Dr. Mendoza: It​ has‌ the potential to enhance ⁢communication and alignment within the executive branch, notably in a context where rapid decision-making is essential.However, it might also raise concerns regarding​ checks ⁣and ⁣balances. The more power is concentrated, the‌ greater⁣ the potential for authoritarian⁤ tendencies.

Editor: Engaging viewpoint. In light of these changes, we’ve seen critically important political maneuvers, such as Massimiliano pullaro ⁢and​ Patrizia Bullrich facing threats from⁤ drug⁣ traffickers. Pullaro emphasized their commitment to public ‍policy⁢ despite intimidation. What ⁢does ⁢this indicate about the current security climate in Argentina?

Dr. Mendoza: The threats against public officials underscore the tension between​ the government and criminal organizations. Pullaro’s steadfastness shows a determination to push back⁣ against‍ these influences, which is‌ crucial in a country that has struggled⁢ with corruption and violent ⁣crime. However, it also reveals the ‍government’s vulnerability to ‌external pressures and ⁣the need for robust security measures to protect officials and uphold public policy.

Editor: Switching ⁤gears a bit, it’s worth noting the significant media attention surrounding Javier Milei, particularly with his recent feature​ in The Economist.The title suggesting​ comparisons with⁣ Donald Trump ⁤certainly raises eyebrows—how do you view Milei’s‌ projection on the international stage?

Dr.⁤ Mendoza: Milei’s emergence as a figure of international interest indicates that he is tapping into⁤ a global wave of populism. His rhetoric resonates with ⁤similar sentiments seen in othre countries. ⁣The comparison to Trump suggests that he is crafting a persona that draws on anti-establishment sentiments, ‍which can ⁣be a double-edged sword. While it garners attention and potential support, it⁣ may also alienate conventional political allies and institutions.

Editor: ⁣Given the political landscape, do you think Milei’s leadership represents ​a stable political phenomenon? He came to power under unusual circumstances, lacking ⁢a traditional political framework.

Dr. Mendoza: Stability in his administration is uncertain. While he may have arrived at a​ critical​ juncture, using the discontent with traditional governance to his advantage, ⁢sustaining that support will be challenging. ⁣His lack of established political structures means he must continually adapt ‍to maintain‌ public confidence and address pressing issues that arose during the pandemic.

Editor: Before we wrap up, what should ‍we keep an eye on in the coming months regarding Milei’s⁢ government and Argentine politics as a whole?

Dr. Mendoza: Watch for how his government responds to domestic challenges, particularly in security and economic policies,⁤ as well as his approach to international relations. The balance between ‌maintaining a hard stance against organized crime while promoting economic ⁤growth will ‌be crucial. Additionally, ‍the way he manages relationships with‍ political allies and⁣ the media ‍will be telling of his governance style.

Editor: Thank‍ you,‍ Dr. Mendoza, for sharing your insights. It seems ​there’s much to monitor in the evolving landscape of Argentine politics.

Dr.Mendoza: Thank you! It’s‌ certainly a engaging time, and I look forward to discussing these developments further as ⁤they unfold.

Editor: And thank ⁣you to our audience for joining us.⁣ Stay tuned to Time.news for the latest updates on this and other critical issues around the globe.
