The leader of the Left Front, Myriam Bregman, made it clear once again the central axis of her government program during an event at the Club Pacífico in Neuquén, where she not only insisted on the nationalization of energy resources, but also anticipated that she would gift Argentine oil to the Cuban regime.
In a speech that allowed for a clearer understanding of the disastrous model of the country she promotes ahead of the elections, Bregman developed her vision on state control of strategic sectors.
“Imagine for a moment that the entire energy system, the production of gas and oil, is nationalized under the management of workers and planned according to social needs,” she stated before the militants.
However, the most striking part came when she elaborated on the fate that those resources would have under her potential government. “To begin with, I dare to say it with certainty, because we are internationalists, and the first thing we would do is send oil to Cuba,” she asserted.
The statement demonstrates that the far-left leader wants to use Argentine strategic resources to supply foreign communist dictatorships, in this case Cuba, within the framework of an internationalist political logic.

This proposal comes in a province like Neuquén, where hydrocarbon activity represents the central economic engine. It is a sector that generates thousands of jobs, attracts millions in investments, and sustains a good part of regional and national economic growth.
In this context, the proposal to nationalize energy resources implies, in concrete terms, displacing the current production and management scheme to place it under state and political control, one of the historical banners of the left, which would mean the total destruction of the sector.
During her speech, Bregman also launched an unusual phrase: “If we combine the strength that we demonstrated on June 3, we will take the Malvinas,” she expressed, despite having confessed some time ago that she does not sing the Argentine anthem.

On the political front, the communist leader again questioned President Javier Milei, whom she described as a “cuddly kitten” responding to the interests of large corporations, something curious given that just minutes earlier Bregman herself confessed her loyalty to the Cuban regime and the sending of Argentine oil.
Looking ahead to the electoral scenario of 2027, Bregman reaffirmed her program, based on the nationalization of strategic resources, state control of the economy, and a vision that seeks to emulate authoritarian regimes like those of Cuba or Venezuela.
Her statements in Neuquén not only reaffirm her ideological positioning but also place at the center of the debate the fate of Argentine energy resources and the use they would have under a potential leftist government.
