The crisis that is shaking Peronism In it Congress It has one basis: Christina Kirchner lost control of PJ. This is emphasized in the background by legislators and historical workers in that political space, although it appears more clearly in The rebellion of senators and the flight of first representatives and their absence from meetings He was summoned by the bishops of the former president, a narrative that leaves the government Javier Miley.
He had previously declared that “conduction as it had hitherto been known has been exhausted.” iProfessional A parliamentary source knows the inner life of the AKP like few others. Everyone sympathizes with Cristina Kirchner because of her arrest, but many understand that, with no chance of running or at least playing into that expectation, she has almost nothing left to offer those still in the race and is forced to rethink what kind of opposition they will form to Milley.
Rebellion Axel Kiselov Before his political godmother predicted the current situation. The power of Kirchnerism over the Pyrrhonian bow has been weakened. And look at this in Representativeswhere the Union for the Fatherland (UP) has already left two elected legislators for San Luis and Tucumán before taking office, sees Catamarcania Governor Raul Jalil standing on one foot, having a smooth dialogue with the government. but Much more is felt in the Senate, Cristina’s last stronghold.
Head of the UP inter-cluster, Jose MainesIt organized a dinner last Wednesday with the aim of containing the forces and unifying the bench (which today is divided into sub-blocs: the National Front, the Popular Front, the Citizen Unity, and the Federal Conviction) under the name of the “Justice Bloc”, but it did not… Absences confirmed the poor internal climate.
Pampa native Daniel Bensoussan, loyal to Governor Sergio Zieloto, was missing; Candida López of the Fugue – who was re-elected in October – and Tucumán deputies Juan Manzor and Sandra Mendoza. But among the new senators who will be sworn in on November 28, there are only two. Added to these absences is the mutiny of the four from the Federal Conviction who are preparing to leave UP.
Christina Kirchner loses control of Peronism
“They create unity among K only.”And they pointed out iProfessional In that bloc composed of Guillermo Andrada (Catamarca), Carolina Moisés (Jujuy), Fernando Regal (La Rioja) and Fernando Salino (San Luis). Moses leads the tumultuous rebellion: “They continue to declare unity without contacting anyone. “They continue to impose things without agreeing on even an idea.” X referred to him on the same night of the meeting.
Yes, the three senators from Santiago del Estero who responded to the governor went to the meeting Gerardo Zamora And today they are part of UP. “but “They are the ones who leave and the ‘boss’ is not there, so who is the one who comes.”Another Biruni source commented on this method. Zamora had already informed Maya and his deputies, german Martinez, Which is evaluating creating its own space in both chambers.
In the Peronist caucus they comment that many senators – including some who went to the meeting – They were tired of continuing to be “led by the nose” by “Cristina’s own needs”, and, moreover, the political identity of the AKP legislators began to “provincialize” because “national Peronism is not seen today.” They thus point to the absence of a unified political strategy, which is in the first place different from that which has characterized Kirchnerism until now.
Here lies the real root of the crisis shaking Peronism today, and the reason behind it Some of those who will remain within UP will do so through their own group. For example, this is what a senator would do. Bensoussan with the song “PJ La Pampa” He will only obey his ruler. Zamora could do something similar: if he finally decides not to break up The Peron bench will also create its own space in the interior, to distinguish itself when it is thought of.
On Friday, the President of Santiago received the Minister of the Interior, diego santelli, To talk about the 2026 budget, and the reforms that Miley is promoting in the special sessions. According to the official’s spokesman, “during the meeting they confirmed their intention Strengthening mutual dialogue between the provinces and the national government.”.
This is a sign of independence from the leadership they exercise. Maya, Annabelle Fernandez Sagasti and Juliana Di Tullio In the Senate under the guidance of Cristina Kirchner, who also has influence German MartinezThe Speaker of the House of Representatives also felt the tremor.
The Peronist crisis in the deputies raises Javier Maili with a major achievement
Before taking the oath before the preparatory session of the House of Representatives, which will be held on December 3, and the swearing-in of the elected officials on December 10, The bloc led by Martinez has already been announced that it will not include Javier Nogueira – who will join the “Independence” bench on the orders of Governor Osvaldo Galdo – and Jorge “Gato” Fernandez of San Luis. Consequently, the number of seats of the Union for the Fatherland Party will decrease from 98 to 96 seats.
But beyond that, Martinez strives for that Contains 7 who respond to Zamorawhile Jalil has almost decided to take his four deputies To the “Federal Bloc” which he would share with the Salteños of Gustavo Sáenz, the missionaries of Hugo Passalacqua and perhaps also Tucumán Galdo.
If these losses are achieved La Libertad Avanza could become the first minority in the House of RepresentativesThis is thanks to the fact that in recent days he has signed Mariano Campero, Luis Pikat and Federico Tournier as part of his team, known as the “wigged extremists” for their support of Millie’s first veto. Before, he had already arrested 7 of the “Bullrichistas” who left the PRO bloc.
The government’s goal these days, before it begins discussing the budget and labor reform with the new composition of Congress, is: To be the first minority in the district to obtain more seats and chairs on committees. That means: greater parliamentary control for Millie, who has so far had little or none of that.
The government is about to impose greater control over Congress: Santelli’s dual role
Santilli’s meetings with governors are not limited to negotiating funds, public works or concessions in exchange for support for the 2026 budget and reforms, but also aim to… Explore the will of the Peronists who could dismantle the Union for the sake of the nation He left the more stubborn opposition embodied by Christina’s followers reduced in number. It is no coincidence that he has already met Jalil and Zamora.
the The Liberals already have 91 MPs of their own This brings them very close to wresting first-minority status from the Union for the Fatherland. It will depend on whether people from Catamarca and from Santiago leave or not. Meanwhile, LLA will have 20 senators and UP will have 28 but will be reduced to 24 if federal senators are opened Or 21 if Zamora also left with his people, although there would be rebels among those who stayed anyway.
For this reason, the leadership crisis Christina Kirchner About him Peronism The main beneficiary of it is Javier Miley In it Congress. Advanced freedom will be strengthened not only by the legislators it adds, but also by those who threaten to detract from the union for the nation. The ruling party will, in the worst case, achieve a state of technical tie that will be resolved in its favor with the PRO’s allies, the Communist Workers’ Party, as well as the AKP governors who are fed up with K’s leadership.
