The second Federal Logistics Summit, organized by the Federal Investment Council (CFI) in Buenos Aires, convened to advance a strategic roadmap for modernizing Argentina’s transport networks. Under the theme ‘Towards competitive logistics for federal development’, the event brought together provincial governors, national authorities, and private sector leaders to address the integration of regional economies into global value chains. Discussions centered on the necessity of a national infrastructure plan covering maritime, fluvial, road, and rail systems. Specific provincial proposals emerged, including Governor Axel Kicillof’s advocacy for the construction of the Magdalena Channel and his call for a national logistics plan involving both public and private sectors. Governor Rogelio Frigerio emphasized the revitalization of port infrastructure and navigable waterways, while Governor Martín Llaryora of Córdoba noted the need for coordinated national strategies to manage high infrastructure costs. Regional leaders also highlighted sector-specific requirements. In San Juan, Governor Marcelo Orrego noted the province’s role in the global energy transition, hosting six of the country’s ten major copper projects and warning of significant increases in heavy vehicle traffic. National Chief of Staff Diego Santilli urged political agreements to support structural reforms, specifically the Large Investment Incentive Regime (RIGI), and the improvement of strategic corridors such as national routes 3, 5, and 7. Following the summit, governors from the Centro Region—Rogelio Frigerio, Martín Llaryora, and Maximiliano Pullaro—met in Paraná for the XII Productive Development and Competitiveness Conference. Representing a region that accounts for approximately one-fourth of Argentina’s GDP, the leaders emphasized the need for improved connectivity and public-private cooperation. ~~Governor Frigerio specifically called~~ The governors also addressed broader political and economic reforms, including support for eliminating PASO primary elections to reduce political costs and the ~~removal~~ implementation of ~~export retentions, describing them as a heavy burden~~ stricter controls on political financing to prevent organized crime from influencing the ~~three provinces.~~ system.
