On March 1st, Javier Milei presents himself amidst tensions due to the cryptogate of the "Viva La Libertad" project. The $Libra currency has fallen, resulting in huge losses and placing him at the center of a global scandal. He appointed two judges for the Supreme Court and exchanged statements with Victoria Villarruel, who was not invited to a dinner after the Legislative Assembly.
The President is finalizing details for the Legislative Opening. He will present the roadmap for 2025, keeping the main points of his speech secret until the last moment. A review of his management and a vision for a "libertarian Argentina" are expected, with a special emphasis on reducing inflation and improving labor conditions.
Milei's speech will be from the Congressional chamber, following an outline with sections on the state of the nation, security, and the "cultural battle". He will mention economic and deregulatory advances, as well as promise improvements in the labor field and tax reductions. He will also insist on the importance of security and lowering the age of criminal responsibility.
The presentation will last about 35 minutes, with interrupting applause. He will also promote the Pact of May and work on adding seats to increase representation in the Chamber of Deputies. The promise of budget cuts in the government and applying the "chainsaw" will be present, in preparation for an election year. The audience will consist of legislators, governors, ministers, and representatives from various sectors. The libertarians promise a strong presence in the activist boxes of La Libertad Avanza.
