Argentina requests its entry into NATO as a “global partner”

Buenos Aires. At a time when universities are on the brink of closure throughout the country, due to funding cuts, and the limit was reached in public hospitals where surgeries were suspended, the Minister of Defense, Luis Petri, requested Argentina’s entry into the North Atlantic Organization (NATO) as a “global partner” after purchasing 24 warplanes for 600 million dollars, which Denmark discarded, while the United States government announced that it will send the government a non-refundable fund of 40 millions of dollars, with the aim of strengthening national security.

This caused adverse reactions in all sectors, but what happened in the Senate is also a scandal after the senators from all blocks agreed to an increase in their salary, which was voted by show of hands in the chamber to “have the necessary votes.” to do it,” said the president of the upper house and vice president, Victoria Villarruel, who proposed the same thing days ago.

“As president of the Senate, I am not a senator, I do not receive compensation from the Senate and I cannot interfere in those decisions. Nor can I force a nominal vote or justify the decision endorsed by everyone, because I am not a senator,” Villarruel said.

It is an incomprehensible act when the government continues without sending the fund more than four thousand school meals and there are already records of six deaths due to not receiving the medications, which were in charge of the Executive due to the impossibility of purchasing them. There is no response to the humanitarian emergency in a country that produces food for 400 million people, where the majority of the population is without work and without any resources or social support.

It is in this area of ​​adding fire to the bonfire every day, the United States embassy highlighted the measure of sending 40 million non-refundable dollars to the government, and maintained that “foreign military financing is a security assistance subsidy reserved for partners important.”

He also highlighted that it allows Argentina to purchase “defense items, training and services from the United States, through free assistance funds, and improve interoperability with US forces.” It was mentioned that “the subsidy” will help the “military modernization of this country, contributing to the purchase of 24 F-16 warplanes from Denmark, which will allow Argentina to “defend its territory more effectively and cooperate with regional partners.” to maintain peace and stability in America.”

For his part, the far-right president, Javier Milei, has been precise in ratifying that his government’s foreign policy is one of “total alignment with the West,” particularly in the relationship with the North American power. But, although he does not say it, in the first place there is Israel, where he now wants to send humanitarian aid as if it needed it and even troops.

It was Israel and the United States that openly financed his presidential campaign and bought the media network to “sell” a candidate, whose imbalance and absolute lack of sensitivity was appropriate to do what he is doing.

Milei is accused of “destroying a country”, with the possibility of achieving a territorial fracture, such as losing Patagonia and of exterminating the population by means other than military means, as has been reported in recent hours.

It was learned that the Russian Vice Foreign Minister, Sergei Riabkov, spoke about the announcement that Argentina requested its entry into NATO, warning that this measure will not provide additional security to any of the parties “but the additional ways of subordinating sovereign States to “Its influence, of dictating its practices, methods and approaches, will undoubtedly expand for the United States, which is the hegemonic within NATO and indisputably rules in it.”

In the south, the governor of Tierra del Fuego, Gustavo Melella, repudiated the fact that a British stand at the “WTM Latin America” fair, held in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil, had offered tourist trips to the occupied Falkland Islands. colonially by Great Britain since 1833, which is considered a provocation that adds fire to the bonfire.

Meanwhile, the outlook is bleak: “dark classrooms, elevators out of service, shifts and consultations that are suspended, and lack of supplies. The hospitals that depend on the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) are under siege from the chainsaw applied by President Javier Milei. The budgetary bottleneck reaches key areas and in some cases they operate at 30 percent of their capacity. This Thursday there was a massive mobilization in front of the Clínicas and protests at the Roffo, a regional reference cancer center,” says Página/12.

The workers warn that they are at the limit of their possibilities, that they have exploited the schedules of new patients and that, with a high rate on the horizon, they foresee that the situation will worsen. The mobilizations do not stop and the despair at the government’s abandonment of more than 60 percent of the population continues to increase the numbers of poverty and destitution.
