Milei Addresses Nation from Tucumán on Independence Day, Calls for Pact Renewal

President Javier Milei addressed the nation from Tucumán on the 210th anniversary of Argentina's Independence Day, calling for a renewed commitment to the "Pacto de Mayo" (May Pact). Speaking from the entrance of the Casa Histórica, Milei framed his administration's central objective as liberating the Argentine people from the "tyranny of the omnipresent State."

“

It is time to renew the vows and ratify our commitment to the May Pact.

"Liberty must be the north of all those who carry the burden of leading the destiny of the homeland," Milei declared during his speech. He highlighted the achievements of his government, drawing parallels with the nation's founding revolutionaries. The President emphasized that his administration has made a historic commitment to achieve this liberation.

The event saw the presence of 13 provincial governors and national cabinet ministers, signifying broad support for Milei's agenda. The President expressed gratitude to the governors for their backing in Congress, acknowledging that his administration has achieved its goals with minimal parliamentary power. He stated that the governors "rose to the occasion when history demanded it, willing to collaborate in the transformation that we are carrying out and that the country needed and continues to desperately need."

“

Liberty must be the north of all those who carry the burden of leading the destiny of the homeland. Our Government has made a historic commitment: to free the Argentine people from the tyranny of the omnipresent State.

Among the governors present were representatives from Salta, Catamarca, Santa Cruz, Chaco, San Juan, Chubut, Corrientes, Entre Ríos, Jujuy, Mendoza, Neuquén, Santiago del Estero, and the host province of Tucumán. The Vice Governor of Córdoba also attended. Milei arrived in Tucumán shortly before midnight, with the Vice President arriving on a separate flight. This commemoration follows Milei's previous Independence Day visit to Tucumán in 2024, which was centered around the Pacto de Mayo.

“

All this that we achieved with a National Executive Power with the least parliamentary power in history, which is why I thank the governors for having been up to the task when history demanded it, willing to collaborate in the transformation that we are carrying out and that the country needed and continues to desperately need.
