Javier Milei closes campaign in Rosario with opposition criticisms

President Javier Milei led the closing rally for La Libertad Avanza in Rosario, Santa Fe, urging votes to defend his government's achievements and criticizing the opposition as a 'destituent Congress'. Accompanied by his Cabinet and candidates, he stressed the need to reshape Congress for reforms. The event took place in Plaza España, ending the campaign before the October 26 legislative elections.

Javier Milei arrived in Rosario on October 23, 2025, for La Libertad Avanza's final campaign event, held in Plaza España along the Paraná River. Accompanied by parts of his Cabinet, deputy candidate Agustín Pellegrini, and other key candidates, the president began his speech by singing and expressing emotion over the presence of youth and militants. 'I'm moved to see so many young people and militants,' Milei said.

In his address, Milei highlighted that his government is 'the first liberal libertarian government in the world' and reviewed achievements such as fiscal equilibrium reached in the first month, Central Bank deficit sanitization in six months, and inflation reduction to 30% annual levels, projecting it to be 'a bad memory' by mid-next year. He also noted poverty dropping to 30%, lifting 12 million Argentines out of poverty and 6 million from indigence, the elimination of piquetes thanks to Minister Patricia Bullrich, and the fight against narcotrafficking in Santa Fe.

Milei criticized the opposition for activating an 'impediment machine' since February, attacking his government program despite structural reforms. 'We arrive at the elections standing tall,' he stated, calling to vote on Sunday the 26th to 'change the face of Congress' and advance reforms against narcotrafficking and crime. He warned that 'all those who play it lukewarm are accomplices of society's exterminators' and contrasted his model with 'Castrochavist communism'.

Agustín Pellegrini, the Santa Fe candidate, described the election as 'historic' and pitted two models: Kirchnerism's or Milei's, which 'lowered inflation and piquetes.' Rosario's mayor, Pablo Javkin, expressed concern over potential incidents, urging avoidance of violence imported from Buenos Aires. This closure was the only official one after cancellations in other provinces, focusing on bolstering support in key Santa Fe.
