He will change the inauguration protocol and will speak from a lectern starting at 9 p.m. He will once again seek to differentiate himself from "the caste" to which he assimilates Parliament, which he even described as "a rat's nest."


After having stated that he does not need Congress to achieve an economic recovery and attack again against "the enemies of change", among whom several governors are included,

Javier Milei

will offer his first speech before the legislative assembly in which he will make

a detailed assessment of the "inheritance received"

, will announce

bills

but will also insist on the

course that his administration charted

with the objective of lowering inflation and introducing the country on a path of development.

As happened during his presidential inauguration, when he spoke from the steps of Parliament,

Milei

will change the protocol for the opening of ordinary sessions and will speak

from 9 p.m. from a lectern

instead of sitting next to the parliamentary authorities on the podium. of the presidency of Deputies.

Although with this determination he seems to once again imitate the American tradition - North American leaders also speak in that country's Parliament at night during the State of the Union -,

in reality the President will speak "standing" to legislators and officials who will remain seated

in the lower house.

The president will once again seek to differentiate himself from "

the caste

" to which he also assimilates

Parliament, which he even described as "a rat's nest

. "

This Thursday he once again attacked this power of the State in an interview with the British newspaper Financial Times.

By stating that he will once again send reform projects to Congress,

he assured that "those who vote against will be identified as enemies of change."

The president indicated that his economic program does not necessarily need Parliament because "with its current composition it is difficult to approve reforms"

and predicted that there will be amendments "that we can make by decree changing the application of the laws

and we will do all that." Optimistic, He predicted that

"we are ready to return all the reforms after December 11, 2025

", referring to an eventual thickening of the ruling blocs after the mid-term elections.

In the midst of

the dispute with the governors

over the adjustment of federal resource transfers, the opposition is concerned about possible grievances by the president.

However, a qualified official source revealed that in his speech he could

"invite"

the leadership that wishes to "join the change."

"We are going to see an authentic Milei

," conjectured, in turn, another official spokesperson consulted, relativizing a possible reversal of the head of state's tone.

He told the LLA deputies that

he was going to "surprise" them with his presentation.

It is likely that the head of state, when arguing the need for each of the jurisdictions to agree to lower spending, lists budget items that he considers superfluous.

Spokesman Manuel Adorni gave an indication of this strategy when listing the recitals that Chubut financed in recent months.

Despite speculation, Governor "Nacho" Torres will be in attendance this Friday in Congress.

In the Executive, they sent invitations to the 23 provincial leaders and the head of the Buenos Aires government but they know

that there will be "more than one failure" due to the climate of confrontation

in recent weeks.

The Mendoza radical Alfredo Cornejo, for example, will be absent for the celebrations of the Harvest Festival.

Milei

suspended the cabinet meeting scheduled for this day at Casa Rosada and decided to remain at the Olivos villa making the finishing touches to his presentation.

Those around her mentioned that they expect

a speech that does not last much more than 40 minutes.

They did concede that she will make use of the

data produced by the internal audits coordinated by the Chief of Staff but also by SIGEN to draw an overview of the State

that she found herself in when she assumed the first magistracy a little over two months ago.
