Argentina's political leaders celebrated the nation’s historic World Cup victory over Egypt in the round of 16, with a wave of social media posts and public statements reflecting both pride and nationalistic fervor. The dramatic comeback, which saw Argentina claw back from a goal deficit to secure their place in the quarterfinals, sparked immediate responses from key figures across the political spectrum, including President Javier Milei, former president Mauricio Macri, and Minister of Security Patricia Bullrich. Milei was among the first to react, posting a message filled with exuberance and emotion: “VAMOS ARGENTINA CARAJO...!!! Que manera de sufrir LRPMQLRMP…” His enthusiasm extended beyond his initial tweet, as he later described the win during radio interviews and a chat with Alejandro Fantino as “a historical comeback.” He emphasized the resilience of the team under coach Lionel Scaloni, declaring that “Argentina can never be given up for dead.” Macri, who previously served as president, also took to social media to congratulate the team, expressing admiration for their perseverance. In one post, he wrote, “Gracias Muchachos!!! Este grupo humano, jugadores, cuerpo técnico, ya nos han dado unas alegrías que superan todo lo que uno podía imaginar.” Later, he reflected on the broader implications of the victory, stating that the team serves as an example for all Argentinians, especially in times of difficulty. “Aun cuando a veces las cosas no salen, cuando todo cuesta, cuando parece que está todo perdido, ellos siguen, no bajan los brazos y lo dejan todo en la cancha,” he said. Minister of Security Patricia Bullrich joined the celebrations, sharing a photo making the number three with her fingers and writing, “Hola, 911. Qué grande sos Argentinaaaa,” referencing the intense pressure of the match. She had earlier compared the team’s performance to a cinematic moment, saying, “Ni en Gladiador le pusieron tanta garra como Argentina hoy.” Her comments highlighted the emotional impact of the game, particularly the role of players like Leandro Paredes, whose efforts were widely praised. Other officials, such as Jorge Macri, the Buenos Aires city governor, and Sandra Pettovello, the minister of Human Capital, also expressed their support through brief but enthusiastic messages. Santiago Caputo, the presidential advisor, added a humorous touch to the celebration, joking about how he had shouted at the team before the match. Meanwhile, Economy Minister Luis Caputo and Finance Secretary Pablo Quirno shared similar sentiments, using emojis and flags to convey their excitement. The Association of Argentine Football’s president, Claudio Tapia, praised the team’s spirit, calling them “suffering until the end, in the truest sense of being Argentine, but with the most alive hope.” He encouraged continued unity and determination as the team moves forward. Reactions from opposition figures were equally positive. Senator Carolina Losada thanked the players for their “tenacity and hunger for glory,” while Governor Gustavo Sáenz expressed pride in being Argentine, noting the team’s refusal to give up. Myriam Bregman, a member of the Left Front, even called for a tribute to Leandro Paredes at La Bombonera stadium. Meanwhile, other political developments unfolded. Patricia Bullrich criticized the proposed collector system aimed at influencing provincial governors, stating she did not like the approach but acknowledged its necessity. President Milei convened his ministers to outline plans for a central bank reform, part of his administration’s agenda. Additionally, Argentina will participate in a U.S.-led summit addressing the resurgence of political terrorism, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio hosting the event. The country’s involvement highlights ongoing diplomatic engagement despite domestic challenges. In another economic development, two new companies, Pumpco, owned by the owner of Inter Miami, and the Italian firm Bonatti, were selected to construct the largest gas pipeline project in Argentina’s history, valued at $1.2 billion. This marks a significant shift in energy infrastructure, involving international partners and local engineering firms.

PerfilIndependentCenterFactual 85Objective 7512 days agoIn a politically and economically significant context, Argentina's national government is pushing forward in Congress with proposals to suspend the PASO (Primarias Abiertas Simultáneas Obligatorias) primaries and reconfigure energy subsidies. During an interview with 'Modo Fontevecchia' on Net TV and Radio Perfil, Flavia Royón—a former national secretary of Energy and Mining and a recognized voice among provincial governors—expressed her agreement with the government's stance on discussing the suspension of PASO, arguing that such a move would only make sense if justified by a clear rationale. She supported the removal of generalized subsidies in public services but emphasized that the true challenge lies in the lag between wages and inflation, which has a severe impact on Argentine families. Royón, who previously held positions under both the governments of Sergio Massa and Javier Milei, resigned in February 2024 amid tensions between the federal government and provincial leaders.
