Political chicanes
do not take holidays
.
The governor of the province of Buenos Aires,
Axel Kicillof,
took advantage of the calm of this Carnival Tuesday to go out to the
Javier Milei intersection.
Through his X account
he mocked
the active presence of the president on that network, while suggesting that he assume his responsibilities on the earthly plane:
“Life is not resolved with likes on the networks.”
The attack - also from the networks - occurred from a first message published by the Buenos Aires Minister of Infrastructure and Public Services
Gabriel Katopodis
.
Alberto Fernández's former official in the same area
complained about the cessation of national funds
that were destined for
public works
in his district and gave as an example, with video included, the
stoppage suffered by a construction in Bahía Blanca
.
“The most important public work in Bahía Blanca is currently
stopped by the national government.
The El Cholo
Urban Pass
is a strategic infrastructure,
requested by neighbors
and all productive sectors that improves the connectivity of this entire region,” Katopodis explained.
The minister maintained that with the stop on public works by the Nation, "
they are not punishing a governor but rather an Argentina
that needs highways, routes, aqueducts, universities that support development."
When Milei proudly defends his "adjustment" perhaps he does not understand the damage caused by stopping nearly 1,000 works that the national government had underway in the province of Buenos Aires.
They are fundamental works to expand rights and improve the lives of Buenos Aires residents.

“We are going to continue demanding that government funds be secured in the province of Buenos Aires,” said the minister, one of the most agitating defenders of public works.
Kicillof, for his part, took up Katopodis' message to add his own reflection and
chicanery for elevation
on the topic.
“When
Milei proudly defends his 'adjustment',
perhaps he does not understand
the damage caused by stopping nearly 1,000 works
that the national government had underway in the province of Buenos Aires,” he said.
The governor considered, in full use of the Kirchnerist narrative, that these are “fundamental works to
expand the rights
and improve the lives of the people of Buenos Aires.”
In turn, he noted, “they provide work, development and dignity in the different regions.”
Gabriel Katopodis has been Axel Kicillof's Minister of Infrastructure since December.

“They are not for the 'caste', they are for the people
,” he concluded while expressing hope that the President would “reconsider” and demanded the restart of the paralyzed works.
By way of closing, Kicillof abandoned the solemn tone to introduce the political chicane.
“The lives of Buenos Aires residents
are not resolved with likes
on social networks,
they are improved with works like those that Milei stops
,” he stated.
The most important public work in #BahíaBlanca today is stopped by the national government.

Milei arrived this Tuesday morning from Rome, Italy, where he concluded his tour that also took him to Israel and the Vatican.
No official activities were reported from the Presidency during the day, but the president was very active in his X account.
