The newspaper La Nación was ahead of the news about the presidential vetoes that will be made official on Monday, and points out that in the executive they are betting to get the support of a third of legislators to avoid the revocation.

Thus, Milei signed the total brake on the three initiatives sanctioned by the Senate on July 10 which provide for an increase in the number of pensioners, the continuation of the pension moratorium and new benefits for families with disabled people. Vetoes will appear in the Official Gazette.

As a pretext for rejecting this necessary social assistance, the president and his advisers allege that the payments they envisage would have a negative impact on fiscal balance and the alleged absence of sources to finance them; However, he granted the oligarchs of Argentine agriculture a multimillion-dollar tax cut on their exports.

Now, the opposition will have to gather two-thirds of the legislators present in the Chamber of Deputies to defend the laws and get the presidential vetoes revoked.

In the upper house the initiatives were supported by a large majority, although now the Casa Rosada estimates that it can gather the support of a third of deputies to contain the opposition and ensure the validity of the three vetoes.

This new confrontation in the Legislative Palace of the avenues Entre Ríos and Rivadavia is directly under the weight of the political campaign for the elections to the Congress of the Nation on October 26.
