Milei’s chainsaw against the Argentine working class

On March 1, Javier Milei took advantage of his speech at the opening of the Ordinary Sessions of the Argentine Congress to put forward his line of adjustment and surrender, after the great defeat of the «Omnibus Law I», that officially was named Ley Bases y Puntos de Partida para la Libertad de los Argentinos, but was dubbed «Omnibus Law I» due to the numerous areas on which it was intended to legislate.

Following the same line as Sergio Massa, his electoral rival ─but class partner─, Milei proposed a «great national agreement»; a new «social contract» ─as he was dynamiting bridges between possible allies─ whose purpose is to guarantee governability and that the different bourgeois factions unite around their adjustment, surrender and repression projects.

Argentina: Not a minute of truce for the ultraliberal and neo-fascist government of Milei!

"Not a minute of truce for the ultraliberal and neo-fascist government of Milei", proclaims the National Secretariat of the Communist Party of Argentina (Partido Comunista de la Argentina) in a statement published on 10 December 2023. The statement by the Communist Party reads:

"The executive led by La Libertad Avanza, with Vice President Villarruel, of the Military Party, and in alliance with Macrismo, among others, does not hide its cards: its links with investment funds, large multinational companies and their local representatives such as Caputo, Bausili or Tillard, their orientation against social protest, with the repressive apparatus in charge of Bullrich and Petri, their alignment with the United States and Israel, and their roadmap marked by the illegitimate and illegal agreement with the IMF, configuring a neocolonial project that comes from the plundering of the natural resources and common goods of our Homeland.
