Argentina: Milei redirects Los Nihuiles royalties to Mendoza; La Pampa vows legal challenge

Argentina's federal government under President Milei has altered the distribution of hydroelectric royalties from the Los Nihuiles dams, granting Mendoza 100% of revenues previously shared with La Pampa. La Pampa's governor has publicly condemned the move and announced a judicial response, escalating a provincial fiscal dispute. The change marks a reversal of prior revenue-sharing arrangements and could set a precedent for inter-provincial resource conflicts.
