Sáenz Clashes With Milani as PJ’s Jujuy Intervention Exposes Deepening Rift

Disciplinary moves in Jujuy triggered the exchange, with a new internal vote set for April 24 facing judicial review bids.

Overview

  • National PJ interventors Aníbal Fernández and Gustavo Menéndez suspended Senator Carolina Moisés and 345 affiliates in Jujuy, scrapped the primaries and set a new vote for April 24.
  • Gustavo Sáenz condemned what he called a “dictatorship of thought” under Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, urging respect for provincial autonomy and calling for her to step aside.
  • César Milani fired back on X by labeling Sáenz “guapo de papel,” accusing him of deference to President Javier Milei and asserting Cristina Kirchner retains over 30% support.
  • Sáenz replied by calling Milani a “guapo de cuartel,” invoking democratic norms and regional symbols such as Güemes’s red poncho to reject military-style hierarchies.
  • Moisés sought internal review of the sanctions and allies reported legal filings, as coverage noted the dispute’s potential to reshape Senate alignments during labor-reform debates after a NOA governors’ meeting with Interior Minister Diego Santilli.
