In this way, a modification in the expenses was ordered through a resolution published in the Official Gazette.

K Universities and a nod to the radicals

However, the additional Funds for Trade are not the only changes in this year’s Budget. A series of universities appear that will receive new funds at the start of the year, some controlled by Kirchnerism, such as La Matanza.

Also that of Lomas de Zamora, which controls Diego Moleaex counselor of the Magistracy and ally of Massa, will receive $580 million. The one from San Martín got $550million and that of Jose C. Paz, located in the municipality of the historic cacique of the suburbs Mario Ishii, will benefit from $500million.

Hurlingham University will receive $500millionthat of the slaughter $470 million and the dark one $250million.

The numbers for the Conurbano institutions contrast with those that will receive the National University of Córdoba that has much more history, teaching staff and number of students than those located in the Province of Buenos Aires.

will receive $500 million, the same funds as that of Hurlingham and less than those that will be pocketed by Lomas de Zamora, controlled by an ally of Massa.

A nod to the UBA, where a radical stomps

There is also the UBA, where the UCR deputy Emiliano YacobittiHe is Vice Chancellor. The UBA, which is managed by Ricardo Gelpi, another radical who answers to Yacobitti, will receive $1.150million.

It is worth remembering that Yacobitti maintains a good relationship with Massa, and that he belongs to Martín Lousteau’s party, Evolución, a key piece for the government to be able to approve the Budget in Congress.

Mass to his own Ministry of Economy

Massa will also allocate, within the Ministry of Economy, funds for “promotion of technological development.” There are another $2,400 million – the same figure that Tombolini will receive – and these funds can be transferred to “provincial institutions or municipalities.”

Meanwhile, Massa allocated $7,523 million to his own Ministry.
