Bullrich urges Milei to heed economic strain ahead of midterms

Argentine senator Patricia Bullrich publicly pushed back on President Milei's dismissal of citizens' economic hardship, arguing that voters decide based on the economy and that the government must be more attuned to their struggles. This signals a rare intra-coalition divergence on economic messaging ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, potentially reflecting growing political pressure on Milei's austerity agenda.
