Axel Kicillof resists making changes to his cabinet

Almost three years later, in the heat of the unprecedented fight between Cristina and Axel Kicillofthe trauma emerges again, this time in Buenos Aires territory. Pressed by the crossfire between the Patria Institute and the Rioja Institute Ricardo Quintela heading to the elections in the Justicialist Party (PJ), The governor of the Province published an extensive letter on his social networks on Saturday, in which he made his position explicit.

In the letter, Kicillof referred to “those who are part of the cabinet.” “I am proud of the work they have been doing and that I want them to continue doing,” he pointed out. The message seemed like a request to prevent a K move like the one that occurred in Alberto’s administration from shaking the provincial management. It happens that, currently, the Buenos Aires administration has four high-ranking officials who report to Cristina Kirchner: Martin Mennain Justice; Nicholas Kreplak, in Health; Daniela Vilarin Environment; and Florence Saintoutat the Cultural Institute.

This Monday, during his usual press conference, the Government MinisterCarlos Biancoratified the will of the Buenos Aires Government to maintain the current formation of the cabinet. “The governor does not plan any changes to the cabinet, we have been working very well with all the ministers,” the official summarized.

“It is not our problem. Nobody is indispensable, if someone wants to leave, they will leave. If they resign, they leave,” They went deeper from La Plata in response to the consultation of Scope. They also warned that any resignations would mean an escalation in the crisis.. “The logical thing is that after all this it ends up in a unit list,” a leader commented to this medium.

In the district they repeat as a mantra that the absolute priority is in management and that the era Javier Milei He does not allow time to get into partisan disputes.

Yes ok Axel Kicillof It hegemonizes most of the spaces of the Buenos Aires administration, some places are subdivided. Within the platoon that responds directly to the governor’s leadership, Bianco stands out as his most trusted man.. The Minister of Infrastructure and Public Services, Gabriel Katopodis; of Economy, Pablo López; of Public Communication, Jessica Rey; of work, Walter Correa; and Community Development, led by the former camper Andrés Cuervo Larroqueare some portfolios commanded by the president’s bishops.

For its part, the head of the Transportation portfolio is Jorge D’onofríoambassador of Sergio Massa’s FR in PBA. At the beginning of the year, Malena Galmarini He had flirted with the possibility of presiding over the Provincia Group, a fact that ultimately did not materialize.

Government scheme

On Saturday, before publishing his letter on social networks, Kicillof participated in the Ezeiza venue of the Argentine Football Association (AFA) of the Mugica Cup, an event promoted by the Province, the Union of Parish Clubs and AFA. There he appeared alongside the Minister of Community Development, Andres Larroque; the Undersecretary of Sports, Leandro Luratiand the Human Development coordinator of Cáritas, Pablo Vidal. Camper Kreplak also participated.

The current organizational chart of the provincial administration is the result of the latest reform, promoted after the “yacht gate” that ended the management of the Lomese Martin Insaurralde in charge of the Chief of Staff. At that time, Kicillof dissolved the portfolio and castled: Bianco went from being his chief of advisors to occupying the Ministry of Government instead of Cristina Álvarez Rodríguezwho did the opposite path.

Beyond this scheme, the governor has an ecosystem of support where numerous mayors and union members coexist, as well as social and political leaders, among others. This structure was evident last Thursday, when the former Minister of Economy led the event for the Peronist Loyalty Day in the town of Berisso.
