Congressman Juan Marino , with the legal representation of constitutional lawyer Eduardo Barcesat , filed a criminal complaint against President Javier Milei, Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno, and Defense Minister Carlos Presti. They are accused of abuse of authority, breach of official duties, and, subsidiarily, treason , for completely bypassing the National Congress's oversight of the recent military exercises with the United States.

The legal filing, which fell to the Federal Court  Case No. 10, filed under file number 3303/2026 , alleges that the Executive Branch irregularly issued Decree 264/2026 to authorize the entry of Pentagon equipment, technology, and personnel. The objective was to conduct the "Atlantic Dagger" exercises and PASSEX patrol maneuvers in the Exclusive Economic Zone, a mechanism that—according to the accusation—served as a smokescreen to transfer military secrets and map key strategic resources behind the back of the Legislative Branch.

Constitutional bypass and military secrecy

The National Constitution is unequivocal: the entry of foreign troops into the territory of the Nation is an exclusive power of Congress (Article 75, section 28) . By forcing an Emergency Decree to enable the deployment of the Fourth Fleet in our waters, the Government did not commit an administrative error; it executed a maneuver to conceal the "fine print" of the commitments made with Washington.

The text of the criminal complaint surgically dismantles the consequences of this capitulation: “The training of foreign special forces under the doctrine, standards and certification of the US military structure and NATO on national territory; the integration of Argentine officers into a Multinational General Staff under the command of the Fourth Fleet; and the enabling of a surveillance architecture for the South Atlantic with possible foreign access to strategic data are objectively suitable acts for transferring portions of Argentine military sovereignty to a foreign nation.”

This paragraph of the judicial accusation confirms point by point what Agenda Malvinas denounced: the donations of ISR sensors (such as the WESCAM MX-10 system) and the Textron B-360ER aircraft do not strengthen sovereignty, but rather integrate the Argentine Navy as a "remote sensor" subordinate to the Pentagon's data and intelligence processing.

The Delivery Puzzle: From Uber to Debt

The criminal complaint coincides with a period of structural dismantling and planned budget cuts to the Armed Forces. As leader Claudio Lozano warned when he joined the call for impeachment, there is a "growing process of occupation" that extends from the South Atlantic to the Southern Command's interference in the main waterway of the Paraná River.

By connecting the pieces, the design of national defenselessness is revealed:

1.    Suffocation and Humiliation: The Executive applies a $59 billion peso cut to the forces and erodes military salaries by 80% in the face of inflation , forcing by decree highly trained officers and non-commissioned officers to work as Uber drivers or delivery drivers to survive.

2.    Institutional Dismantling: Reforms led by Federico Sturzenegger are being promoted to dissolve and merge the Navy with the Prefecture, reducing the capacity for strategic military defense to maritime police station tasks.

3.    Multidimensional Debt: While there is no fuel to patrol the sea or pay the electricity bills for the barracks, the Government commits $400 million to the contractor Raytheon to buy AMRAAM missiles conditioned and controlled by Washington's software; the same missile that the U.S. provides to the British usurper in the Malvina Islands.

The legal lock in favor of Great Britain

By annexing the Argentine Sea to the US national security doctrine under the label of "Protecting Global Commons " , the national government has granted a foreign power operational oversight of our waters.

The legal and geopolitical consequences of this act are devastating for the historical claim to the Malvina Islands. If the South Atlantic is considered a "global commons" jointly managed by the Fourth Fleet and an Argentine Navy downgraded to an auxiliary force, the NATO military base on Mount Pleasant and the British fishing plunder cease to be an illegal colonial occupation and become just another component of the "shared management" of maritime space.

The case being processed today in Comodoro Py not only judges the formal violation of a law on the entry of troops; it judges the planned surrender of the Argentine sea, air and land to Washington's global strategy, in a protectorate model that ties down the future of national sovereignty.
