What challenges do you foresee in the 2025 budget negotiations given the current divisions within the ruling party?
**Interview with Political Analyst Dr. Maria Fernandez on the 2024 Congress Session and Budget Negotiations**
**Interviewer:** Welcome, Dr. Fernandez. As we approach the end of the 2024 regular session of Congress, we’re seeing significant developments regarding the 2025 budget. Can you explain the current state of budget negotiations?
**Dr. Fernandez:** Thank you for having me. At this point, the ruling party has expressed serious intentions to freeze the negotiations for the 2025 budget. This stems from deep-seated divisions with governors and their primary ally, the PRO, led by Mauricio Macri. There’s an evident push from the government through their Budget and Finance Committee to seek some consensus, but the path forward looks rocky.
**Interviewer:** Interesting. José Luis Espert, the Vice Chairman of the Budget and Finance Committee, conveyed this message during a recent press conference. What does this suggest about the ruling party’s strategy?
**Dr. Fernandez:** Espert’s statement highlights the administration’s commitment to engage in discussions, but the fact that they’re publicly stating a freeze signals internal party struggles and a lack of alignment on key issues. The ruling party might be worried that any negotiations will open the door for unwanted discussions on other legislative items that could disrupt their agenda.
**Interviewer:** You mentioned that other projects are being discussed alongside the budget. What are some of those projects, and how could they affect the overall legislative landscape?
**Dr. Fernandez:** Right, aside from the budget, there are crucial projects like the privatization of Aerolineas Argentinas and the controversial Hojarasca law. These topics are likely to spark heated debates. The government must weigh its priorities carefully because progressing with one may undermine their ability to navigate others, especially under the current climate of opposition from various political factions.
**Interviewer:** It seems like there’s a potential for extraordinary sessions to revisit these discussions. How likely do you think that is?
**Dr. Fernandez:** It’s a possibility, especially if the government feels pressure from public outcry or if consensus becomes viable. But, as we’ve seen, there is a lot of hesitance, particularly around issues that might create political tension, such as the budget. The government seems keen on avoiding discussions that could disrupt their standing or invite conflict before the next legislative session.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Dr. Fernandez. As we head into 2025, it will be fascinating to see how these negotiations unfold.
**Dr. Fernandez:** Absolutely. The political climate is quite dynamic, and any shift could have significant implications. Thank you for having me.
