The Minister of the Interior, Diego Santelli, received on Friday in Casa Rosada the Governor of Jujuy State, Carlos Sader, “to implement a common agenda that promotes progress and growth in the province and in every region of the country,” it was officially reported. Regarding the 2026 budget, they both stressed that “it is necessary for the government to obtain the government’s approval of the 2026 budget law, and for this reason they indicated that it is a priority for Congress to move forward with this regulation.” The Interior Ministry stated that they “also discussed the package of reforms aimed at consolidating the profound changes undertaken by President Javier Milley.” “We talked about the main issues for the people of Jujuy: Route 34, the housing that we need to finish, the ATN funds, the water and sewerage works, the La Quiaca Free Trade Zone tender, the state of the national programs, and each of the projects we were managing so that they would not stop,” Sedir wrote on his “X” account.
Chief of Staff Manuel Adorni was not present, as he was in Congress with Secretary General of the Presidency Karina Miley to attend Patricia Bullrich’s swearing-in as a senator. Sader is the 15th president to have met with Santilli and the only thing left to do is to call up Sergio Zilioto (La Bamba), Claudio Poggi (San Luis), Maximiliano Pollaro (Santa Fe) and Jorge Macri (Capa), according to NA. Next Monday, the Minister of the Interior will travel to Corrientes to meet with Gustavo Valdes.
Santilli started the week on the road. He was in Misiones on Tuesday and then returned to settle in Balcarce 50. He was received by the referees Rolando Figueroa (Neuquen), Claudio Vidal (Santa Cruz) and Raul Jalil (Catamarca). This was the final part of a tour of Entre Ríos, Mendoza, Neuquén, Santiago del Estero and Misiones to negotiate the 2026 budget. The leaders excluded from the round were the Peronists Axel Kiselov (Buenos Aires), Ricardo Quintela (La Rioja), Gildo Insafran (Formosa) and Gustavo Melilla (Terra del Fuego, Antarctica and South Atlantic Islands).

The practice of professional and critical journalism is an essential pillar of democracy. This is why it bothers those who believe they are the bearers of the truth.
