The article discusses the controversial privatization of several key roadways in Argentina, focusing on how the proposal might lead to the government of Axel Kicillof, known for his statist approach, potentially managing a vital toll route through a state company, Aubasa. Recent bids for the management of routes 5 and 3, as well as the Ezeiza-Cañuelas highway, have attracted significant interest, with 15 proposals submitted, raising concerns about foreign involvement and state competition in infrastructure management. This situation has created debates among regulators and governmental officials regarding the implications of a state-run entity taking control of such a critical asset, particularly in the context of Milei's push for privatization, which starkly contrasts Kicillof's ideological stance. In the backdrop of these discussions lies a clause in the current tender process that restricts sovereign capital companies from entering the bidding, implicitly targeting Chinese firms, yet leaves room for provincial state companies to compete, thereby complicating the privatization narrative and highlighting the tug-of-war between different economic philosophies within the country.
