Without support from Milei, fugitives from 8/1 became targets of the police in Argentina
According to Folha de S.Paulo, Argentina, previously seen as an “escape route”, now presents challenges for fugitives, who feel frustrated by Milei’s lack of support.
After the ceremony at Planalto, the president, accompanied by the authorities present, will walk down the Palace ramp to participate in the symbolic event Embrace for Democracy at Praça dos Três Poderes.
The mobilization is being organized by the Frente Brasil Popular and should bring together around a thousand people, including members of left-wing parties, such as PT, PCdoB and PV, as well as trade union centrals and representative entities such as CUT (Central Única dos Trabalhadores), CNBB ( National Conference of Brazilian Bishops) and OAB (Brazilian Bar Association).
