Overview
- The most divisive section of the proposed Ley de Tierras that would have regulated sales of rural land to foreigners was withdrawn from the draft ahead of the Senate debate set for Thursday, increasing uncertainty about the bill's final form.
- The rollback followed a separate failed practicaje decree that disrupted port operations and produced sharp criticism of Modernization Minister Federico Sturzenegger from colleagues and allied lawmakers.
- High‑profile public figures have amplified opposition to the law, with defender Lisandro Martínez publicly posting “Las tierras argentinas no se venden” and singer Lali Espósito calling for protests outside the Congress.
- Local leaders like Rosario mayor Pablo Javkin urged that any limits on land sales be decided territorially — provincially or by department — rather than as a single national percentage.
- Several football developments intersect with the political noise: Cienciano coach Horacio Melgarejo is appealing a one‑year domestic ban, Jesús Castillo’s reported move to Espérance awaits medicals and an official announcement, Maximiliano Salas completed a one‑season loan to Independiente Rivadavia, Nahuel Molina is close to joining Roma, and Boca has advanced talks to sign Enner Valencia.
