Milei's ministers began talks this afternoon with representatives of the 23 provinces and the City. They present a series of proposals, open to negotiating. Afterwards, the head of the Interior will take stock at a press conference and could add some leaders

The two ministers that Javier Milei chose to redirect relations with the dialogue-oriented political parties have received all the representatives of the provinces in the Casa Rosada since this afternoon, who met with perfect attendance despite the resistance that the Kirchnerists had shown. The main objective of the Government is to approve without delay, above all, privatizations and extraordinary powers for the Executive. From 3 p.m., they listened to the districts' complaints and presented them with proposals - mainly funds through a new fiscal pact - in exchange for support for the reverted Omnibus law .
The meeting takes place a week after the president's call in the Legislative Assembly to the rest of the political class, in exchange for a new fiscal pact that will alleviate their bills and with a view to signing an agreement of 10 basic consensus points in May. . Those in charge of carrying out the dialogue are the Chief of Staff, Nicolás Posse, and the Minister of the Interior, Guillermo Francos, but at the last minute they added the Secretary of the Treasury, Carlos Guberman; of the Interior, Lisandro Catalán; and the Executive Secretary of the Government, Jose Rolandi.
They will try to find a diagonal to obtain legislative support to approve their reforms. The first will command a meeting of these characteristics for the first time, in an attempt by Milei to achieve greater “prolixity” in the discussion. Which is a way of admitting that the first stretch of the talks, between January and February, was at least messy.
Jorge Macri entering Casa Rosada
The governors entered the Casa Rosada on time. They were summoned at 2:45 p.m. and at exactly that time they began to enter, one by one, through the esplanade, and then move through the Hall of Busts and climb the stairs that took them to the Eva Perón Hall. In order, Gerardo Zamora (Santiago del Estero), Hugo Passalacqua (Misiones), Claudio Poggi (San Luis), Rolando Figueroa (Neuquén), Leandro Zdero (Chaco), Carlos Sadir (Jujuy), Marcelo Orrego (San Juan), passed. Jorge Macri (CABA), Martín Llaryora (Córdoba), Gustavo Melella (Tierra del Fuego); Sergio Ziliotto (La Pampa); and Axel Kiciloff (Buenos Aires), who was accompanied by his Chief of Staff, Carlos Bianco, and put an end to speculation about his absence by crossing the access gate.
In a second batch, Ignacio Torres (Chubut), Alfredo Cornejo 's vice-governor , Hebe Casado (Mendoza), Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos) and Alberto Weretilneck (Río Negro) arrived. And, around the time of the meeting, scheduled for 3:00 p.m., Teresita Madera, vice president of Ricardo Quintela (La Rioja); Gisela Scaglia, Maximiliano Pullaro 's number two (Santa Fe), who decided to be absent at the last minute due to a local security emergency but did not fail to send a representative; the vice of Gildo Insfrán (Formosa), Eber Solís; Claudio Vidal (Santa Cruz); and Gustavo Valdes (Corrientes). Raúl Jalil (Catamarca), Osvaldo Jaldo (Tucumán) and Gustavo Sáenz (Salta) arrived barely late , the three Peronist northerners with the greatest affinity with Milei, eager for the Large Investment Regime (RIGI) to be approved to promote local industries.
The meeting began at 3:15 p.m., when Posse sat at the head of the table surrounded by Francos and the secretaries and began the conversation, the details of which will be known in the coming hours. For now, it is only defined that Francos will be in charge of summarizing the result, in a press conference in the Conference Room on the second floor of the government palace. It is likely, those around him announced, that he will add a governor to the speech, as in the first meeting in January. At that time, Jalil, Sáenz and Yaryora had accompanied him, with brief summary speeches, before relations with the man from Córdoba broke down.
Milei, it is confirmed, will be conspicuous by his absence. She is still in Olivos, and the Government assured once she had started that it is not planned for her to move to the Casa Rosada, where she only goes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Thus, the expectation that she would “stop by to say hello” would not be met, as Francos had risked in a journalistic consultation the day before yesterday. “She can't stand many people, especially Axel. He would ruin her day,” they said on Balcarce 50. The feeling is mutual with the Buenos Aires governor, which he did not confirm until late last night.
In the run-up to the meeting, the Government pointed out, amidst the doubts, that there are several points on which there is sufficient consensus; and points that will be definitively excluded. Thus, the “Bases” law would without fail include the granting of extraordinary powers to Milei; the privatization of state companies; the reform of the State and the promotion of a new regime of large investments. The tax chapter would include Profits, money laundering, moratorium and the advance of Personal Assets. And they would not insist on increasing withholdings.
In Balcarce 50, no one expects a concrete agreement to be reached today. Instead, they warn that it will be a “first approach” with the heads of the provincial Executives to evaluate their claims and convey the limits of the changes. The Milei delegates, meanwhile, arrived with a series of priority issues on the agenda, where they will intersect the axes of the text of the Omnibus Law with “new” points, which will actually be extracted from the DNU on deregulation of the economy. In addition, they will add topics introduced by the ruling party in the public debate in recent weeks, such as the declaration of education, health and transportation as essential services, to limit the right to strike.
