Javier Milei will give his second opening speech of ordinary sessions today at 9 PM. It is expected that during the speech, mentions will be made of the priority reforms he plans to approve throughout the year.
The atmosphere leading up to the speech is marked by uncertainty over possible important announcements and expectations surrounding the words of the president of La Libertad Avanza. The speech is anticipated to focus on the achievements of the first year of management, avoiding excessive references to the inherited situation.
Milei will address the Chamber of Deputies, speaking from a podium set up in the center. During the address, he is expected to discuss topics such as the Youth Criminal Reform and will criticize kirchnerism and other opposition leaders, whom he tends to group under the designation of "State Party."
Security around the National Congress has been significantly reinforced, with street closures and special measures to prevent potential incidents. Additionally, the presence of political personalities and relevant officials is expected, although the absence of some sectors of the opposition has been confirmed, as well as the exclusion of Villarruel from the guest list.
Regarding Milei's relationship with his running mate, an evident distancing has been noted, reflected in the physical separation of accredited press in Congress during the event to comply with a directive from Casa Rosada.
Milei's speech is expected to be emphatic on economic and security issues, aiming for possible tax reductions, deregulations, and a greater limitation of the State's role. A critical approach towards his political opponents is also anticipated, seeking to highlight contrasts between his management and proposals and those of other sectors.
In summary, Milei's speech is expected to reflect his confrontational and proactive style, aiming to consolidate his image and that of his party in the face of an election year where political tensions are exacerbated and party agendas confront one another on various fronts.
