Cristina Kirchner reappeared two months after Milei's inauguration

The document that Cristina Kirchner published this morning , with strong criticism of the government of Javier Milei, represented within Kirchnerism a theoretical-political framework to position itself for the negotiations, from now on, that must be developed with the officialdom.

“He has been saying it for a long time, it is not new, what happens is that written in a document it has more impact,” reflected a senator K when asked by Infobae. “It is a roadmap,” added another source also with an office in the Legislative Palace.

According to the senators closest to the Patria Institute, the former president's reading of the discussion raised by the Executive, after the setback of the Omnibus Law in Deputies, is as follows: “There are points where we have points of agreement, but not as the raised by the Government in the Law and in the Decree of Necessity and Urgency, which we tried to declare unconstitutional." This was explained to this medium by a source close to the former vice president.

“We do not agree with dollarization. Let's cut it off with the debt, since we already know where it takes us, let's accept that we are a bimonetary country and the problem, what strains the economy, is always the shortage of dollars. Also, don't mess around with the fiscal deficit anymore because later they adjust and they always do it based on the same ones, it is the same ones who lose and it is the same ones as always who win. Let's debate the rest of the issues: the role of the State, companies, education, the health system, are all issues that she - for CFK - has been raising for a long time," he added.

Thus, the document opens a door regarding the debate regarding several points, but what the Unión por la Patria sources consulted make clear is that it is not going to happen in the terms proposed by the Government. “With this level of violence, we are not going to accept legislators and governors who do not think the same.”

In that sense, the senators consulted explain that beyond agreeing that some reforms must be carried out, they understand that it is not through the DNU that Milei signed and that they are trying to repeal in the chamber. “What we have been demanding and saying regarding unconstitutionality does not change anything. There is no problem in debating everything, but not like this,” they insisted.

But the document that CFK published is not only a roadmap for legislators regarding the debate with La Libertad Avanza, but it is also a message for all the lines of Peronism that come together within Unión por la Patria and that are reflected in the two blocks in the Senate of the Nation.

Wado de Pedro with Peronist governors

This is what was understood by the former Minister of the Interior and current Senator Eduardo “Wado” de Pedro , who in his X account published the document accompanied by a text in which he says that “repeating the model that has already led us to failure on other occasions will cause the same results. The same people as always win, who do business with the assets of Argentines, and the vast majority lose. I recommend Cristina's document to understand what is happening and begin to have the necessary debates within Peronism."

With this, one of the maximum references of La Cámpora also sends the message to the internal Peronism that seeks to rearm itself after the defeat in the last elections.

A no less important fact is the special care that the former vice president gives to the governors , pointing out the legitimacy that the votes give her. Where the UxP bloc is strongest is in the Senate of the Nation, but to assert that strength it needs the governors, both their own and the “loose” ones who are from the forces of their territories and respond directly to the provincial heads.
