Another of the unknowns, and through which most of the negotiations will go, is Who will Milei himself propose to lead the Chamber of Deputies?where they will have a block of 38 members and will seek to establish alliances with the groups that until now make up Together for Change (JxC) and respond to Mauricio Macri or Patricia Bullrich.
