Argentina's Chamber of Deputies ratified the Senate-amended BCRA organic charter in committee plenary.[^1]

The original draft of the BCRA charter had been intended to shield BCRA president Santiago Bausili from removal beyond Javier Milei's presidential term.[^2]

On 28 October, Milei inaugurated lithium mining plants at an event in Catamarca.[^3]

Milei made no mention of Brazil, President Lula da Silva or Flávio Bolsonaro during the Catamarca speech.[^4]
