He Government is in the middle of intense negotiations to define the lists of national and federal judges and chambermaids. This process, which has generated great expectation and controversy, is characterized by the exclusion of the PRO (Republican Proposal) from the talks, which has added an additional layer of political tension.
The appointment of judges is a crucial process for the functioning of the judicial system in Argentina. Currently, the country faces a critical situation with 30% of the courts vacant, which has led to an excess of subrogations and has generated significant delays in the administration of justice, while the Government choose yours.
The need to fill these positions has become urgent, not only for operational reasons, but also due to international pressures, such as those from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which has urged the acceleration of these appointments to improve the country’s institutional situation. .
President Javier Milei and his team have prepared a list of 140 lists of judges and chambermaids, which are expected to be presented to the Senate in the coming days. However, this process has not been easy. Negotiations with governors and senators have been extensive and complex, with multiple objections and last-minute adjustments.
Despite these difficulties, the Government remains firm in its objective of achieving the approval of these specifications before November 30. One of the most controversial aspects of this process has been the exclusion of the PRO from the negotiations.
According to sources from the Governmentthe PRO does not have prerogatives in this area due to its low representation in the Senate. This decision has generated criticism and has been interpreted as a strategic move to consolidate the power of the ruling party and ensure the necessary support for key appointments, such as those of Ariel Lijo and Manuel García Mansilla to the Supreme Court.
Talks
The exclusion of the PRO has caused mixed reactions in the political sphere. While some sectors of the ruling party see this measure as a way to speed up the process and avoid unnecessary blockages, representatives of the PRO and other opposition parties have expressed their discontent.
They argue that this exclusion undermines the principle of plurality and transparency in the judicial selection process, and could affect the legitimacy of the appointments. Negotiations with governors and senators have been intense. Justice Secretary Sebastián Amerio has been at the forefront of these conversations, working closely with presidential advisor Santiago Caputo.
