Highlights: Milei considers asking officials who respond to wayward governors to resign. Once the Omnibus Law has fallen, the President considers that the agreements that his Government wove were not fulfilled. The group of officials that responds to these last two knows that it is in the eye of the storm. "We are not surprised by many, but it is true that there were also surprises," responded, enigmatic and without giving further details, a close collaborator of Milei said. But the deadlines for Milei's eventual decision are also unclear, unless "there is someone offended"


Once the Omnibus Law has fallen, the President considers that the agreements that his Government wove were not fulfilled, they told Clarín from the delegation that accompanies him in Israel. And they anticipated that he analyzes "case by case" before making a decision.


Those who listened to Javier Milei in the last few hours assure that the reposts he made on his Twitter account of the comments against the opposition deputies are "soft" next to the

anger he shows in private

when referring to the session of Deputies in which was forced to withdraw the Omnibus Law so as not to suffer an even harsher political defeat.

Thus, on a day in which Israel attacked the legislators of dialogue blocs very harshly, accusing them of "dismembering" the project and calling them "criminals" who "steal from Argentines," the President is already analyzing the steps to follow.

And although he often repeats that he always waits for it to cool down before making decisions, the official committee confirmed to

Clarín

that,

with the conviction that the governors did not comply with

the agreements that the Government wove,

they are analyzing asking the officials who respond to the requests to resign. provinces

.

"No option is ruled out," unobjectionable sources told

Clarín

, explaining that the President

will analyze the situation of his officials "case by case

," after pointing out to the opponents who voted against several articles of the project called "Bases for the freedom of the Argentines".

"

We are not surprised by many, but it is true that there were also surprises

," responded, enigmatic and without giving further details, a close collaborator of Milei, who admitted the impact that the setback in the lower house generated inside the Government.

There are

several governors listed

, but not all of them have a presence in the Executive. Carlos Sadir from Jujuy, from Together for Change, Rolando Figueroa from Neuquén (former MPN), missionary Hugo Passalacqua (Frente Renovador de la Concordia), Salta from Gustavo Sáenz (Massism) and Martín Llaryora from Córdoba (Peronism not K).

The

group of officials that responds to these last two knows that it is in the eye of the storm

.

The

people of Cordoba

, who came under the command of former governor Juan Schiaretti but who today have an undoubted closeness with the current president Martín Llaryora,

are the ones who are having the worst time

: this is the Secretary of Transportation,

Franco Mogetta

;

the president of Banco Nación,

Daniel Tillard

, and the head of the ANSeS,

Osvaldo Giordano

, whose wife, national representative Alejandra Torres, voted against in some sections.

"I didn't think they thought I was going to make decisions based on the mandate he occupies. I didn't have in my mind that this was to put pressure on me," the legislator said on Radio Miter Córdoba, after the

head of state retweeted a comment

from a follower who asked him to "immediately throw him out as a traitor" for his vote.

Although she has support from business sectors that quickly pulled strings to shield her,

the Secretary of Mining, Flavia Royón, is another who is under the microscope

: she responds to Gustavo Sáenz, whose deputies did not contribute to the vote in particular either.

She was especially irritated that the articles of the law that promoted modifications to deregulate the energy sector, for which Royon was responsible under the government of Alberto Fernández, were dropped.

In parallel with Milei's analysis in Israel, his small table held a meeting in Buenos Aires, where high official sources confirmed that "

the issue was discussed

," although "it was not the reason" for the call that brought together the head of Cabinet, Nicolás Posse, the presidential advisor Santiago Caputo and the Minister of the Interior, Guillermo Francos, the great promoter of the agreement with Schiaretti.

"

Each case is being studied, because not all of them are the same

," indicated a voice of extreme confidence from the president.

In the provinces they say they are not aware of Milei's movements.

But near the assembly of a governor they ironically expressed the intention of the Casa Rosada: "If they fire someone for rejecting a section, what are they going to do with the more than 70 guys who worked for (Sergio) Massa in the Renewal Front, which did you vote against it?

However, the deadlines for Milei's eventual decision are also unclear.

But the Government understands that, unless "there is

someone who is offended by the comments and, welcome, wants to leave sooner

," we will have to wait until Tuesday, when the President returns to Argentina after the audience with Pope Francis.
