President Javier Milei enacted DNU 941/2025, amending the National Intelligence Law and expanding the powers of the State Intelligence Secretariat (SIDE), including the ability to make arrests without judicial orders. The opposition, led by Unión por la Patria and experts like Andrés Gil Domínguez and Jorge Taiana, condemns it as an authoritarian shift that could lead to a police state. The government defends the reform as a necessary modernization to address 21st-century threats.
