  Incumbent's brother elected Governor of Corrientes

  

  If Sunday's gubernatorial elections in the Argentine province of Corrientes are anything to go by, given the upcoming mid-term polls, President Javier Milei's candidate took fourth place while Juan Pablo Valdés of the “Vamos Corrientes” coalition - and brother of incumbent Goovernor Gustavo Valdés - secured victory in the first round with 52% of the vote, which is enough to avoid a runoff. The Radical Civic Union (UCR), to which the Valdés brothers belong, has now governed the province for 24 years.

  New incident between Argentine forces and illegal Paraguayan fishermen

  

  The Governor of the Argentine province of Corrientes Gustavo Valdés insisted that the Foreign Ministry and the Senate should get involved after another clash was reported between unauthorized Paraguayan fishermen and the Coast Guard (Prefectura Naval Argentina - PNA). “I hope they take care and do not continue denying the conflict as they have been,” Valdés underlined.
