    Milei Resumes Legislative Push, Meets with Lawmakers Amidst Election Year

    President Javier Milei returned to the Casa Rosada to lead a meeting with legislators from La Libertad Avanza, aiming to break the parliamentary stalemate and start approving reforms. The meeting comes ahead of the next year's elections and follows a period of reduced public appearances by the president. The government seeks to regain the initiative and 'fall back in love' with the electorate, particularly young voters who were key to Milei's 2023 triumph. The president reaffirmed his economic program and rejected populism, while also addressing the issue of overdue payments. The government plans to advance several initiatives in Congress, including the modification of the Organic Charter of the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) and Fiscal Innocence II.
