Argentine province threatens to cut country's energy supply in dispute with President Milei
Fox News
Argentine President Milei's government held back about $16 million from the province of Chubut, citing debt the region owed, so Chubut threatened to cut the country's energy supply.
Chubut Governor Ignacio Torres, part of the main conservative bloc that has backed Milei, responded that the province would cut energy supply if the funds were not disbursed, a position supported by other governors in southern Argentina.
"Threatening to cut off fuel is a matter of extortion, not of the national government but the Argentine people themselves," presidential spokesman Manuel Adorni said at a press conference.
