The Government of Javier Milei will not back down and is preparing a mega security operation for the demonstration scheduled for next Wednesday at the Congress, which could end in a new attempted coup by the left-wing terrorism.
According to official sources, the strategy will include measures to prevent violent disturbances like those recorded last week, which left 16 people hospitalized and a photographer seriously injured.
President Javier Milei and Security Minister Patricia Bullrich addressed the issue during their visit to ExpoAgro in San Nicolás.
Both agreed that the administration "will not take a step back" in its public order policy and that the demonstration should not become a street blockade. An Executive official stated that "this violence every Wednesday is unsustainable, but even less sustainable is them taking over the streets."
Last Friday, Bullrich led a meeting with the top authorities of the federal security forces, the State Intelligence Secretariat (SIDE), and the Ministry of Security of the City of Buenos Aires to coordinate the new operation.
The meeting was attended by the head of SIDE, Sergio Neiffert, and his deputy, Diego Kravetz, along with Buenos Aires Security Minister, Horacio Giménez, and the City Security Secretary, Maximiliano Piñeiro. Also present were the national Security Secretary, Alejandra Monteoliva, and the national Director of Criminal Intelligence, Ricardo Ferrer Picado.
Milei's Government is considering establishing a "sterile zone" around the Congress and channeling the demonstration within the square, thus avoiding street and avenue blockades.
