Well, it's going as good as one would expect so far. 20-25% monthly inflation, with the promise of stabilization around April (now June). His first package of laws (around 600 of them, that more or less gave him special powers over the congress for a year) flunked in Congress, then a light version (with around 300 laws) was approved in general and in the internal discussion it was reformed to the point that the government itself decided to discard it. Not before threatening not to send any new laws through the Congress for the rest of the year
. Of course, as this was happening Milei was visiting the Vatican and Israel, crying in front of the Wailing Wall and promising to bring Argentina's embassy to Jerusalem.
His latest fight is against the governors who opposed to his packages of laws (Ley Omnibus) especially the governor of the Chubut province. A presidential decree esentially defunds that province, as it uses a substantial part of its 2024 budget to amortize its debt with the central government. Several governors (mostly opposed to Milei) have supported Chubut and the next steps are unclear.
On the bright side, he achieved a fiscal superavit in January, the first in argentinian economy since 2012 which is a very good sign for the markets and the IMF. Sadly, this esentially came from removing subsidies from retired people, energy, public transport (whose fees have tripled in a month) and other cuts that esentially affect the middle class. We'll see how it goes from here.
