The call for a strike is the fastest strike called by the central workers' union to a new government. De la Rúa was given 79 days and with Alberto Fernández there were no strikes.
Just 45 days passed since December 10, 2023, the day of Javier Milei 's inauguration as president. And that is the time it took the CGT to carry out its first general strike with the new Government . It is a record that even surpasses former president Fernando De la Rúa, who suffered his first massive strike only after 92 days, that is, three months. One fact is even more eloquent: the announcement of the measure of force was made on December 28, just 18 days after the leader of La Libertad Avanza took office.
Since the return of democracy in 1983, general strikes called by the CGT have been a constant in the union scene. This strategy, which has proven to be exhausting and significantly affected various governments. Of the 43 strikes led by the CGT to date, 28 were carried out during non-Peronist administrations. Furthermore, during election years, non-Peronist governments recorded twice as many general strikes compared to their PJ counterparts.
In chronological order, Raúl Alfonsín faced 13 general strikes; Carlos Menem , 8; Fernando De la Rúa , 8; Eduardo Duhalde , 2; Néstor Kirchner , 1; Cristina Kirchner , 5; Mauricio Macri , 5; Alberto Fernández did not face any and Javier Milei already has the first.
This ranking, which is now updated, was carried out by the Institutional Quality Observatory of the Austral University. According to this investigation, the CGT called on average the first strike for non-Peronist presidents 275 days into their administration. In contrast, the Peronist leaders experienced their first general strike after 1,108 days in power.
The record of general strikes is maintained by Raúl Alfonsín , who suffered 13 protests of this type promoted by the CGT during his five and a half years of government, always with the impulse of its owner, Saúl Ubaldini, the beer leader who represented the harshest opposition that the radical administration had and behind which a divided Peronism stood (as almost always in history).
The radical president had his first setback with the frustrated Trade Union Reorganization Law, baptized as the “Mucci Law” by the first Minister of Labor of Alfonsinism, Antonio Mucci, a former graphic leader. He proposed greater democracy in the unions, with the participation of minorities and limitations on re-elections. The project was defeated by a single vote in the Senate. That was the beginning of a tense relationship between Alfonsín and unionism. The 13 strikes became almost an act of harassment, although economic and social difficulties marked the management of the first democratic government since 1983.

It is a scenario that matches the present. In this case, Milei did not propose a reform by law, but rather signed a DNU that established a profound reform in union matters, both in terms of the compensation system, the trial period, sanctions against blockades, and profound changes in the regime. of social works and the mandatory contributions received by unions. Changes in labor matters are stopped by Justice.
De la Rúa faced fierce union opposition also for his economic program and for the labor reform project that ended the bribery scandal in the Senate, which the PJ leaders immortalized as the “Banelco Law.” Regarding this, and if the indicator of “strike frequency measured in days” is taken, the last radical president was the one who bore the brunt with a general strike every 92 days, and Macri closes the list, with a strike every 292 days. .
De la Rúa, until now, was the one who had suffered the most premature unemployment in the entire democracy. The General Confederation of Labor gave him 79 days. To Javier Milei, barely 45, a record.
