The traditional English newspaper characterized Kicillof like the ““most influential elected official within the left-wing Peronist opposition” and questioned about his current relationship with the former president Cristina Kirchner, in the middle of the interior of the PJ.
Kicillof said in the report that his relationship with Fernández de Kirchner is “permanent” and that the conversations with the former president “depend on the moment.” Meanwhile, in relation to the partisan dispute in Peronism, he limited himself to stating that The opposition space is in “a process of analysis and reorganization.”
In addition, the Buenos Aires president recalled his campaign for re-election in the province last year and said that it was “very clear” because they offered “a present State, a bigger and better State.” “Argentines continue to love the big State despite Milei,” emphasized Kicillof before the UK publication.

Axel Kicillof, his criticism of Javier Milei and the defense of the “present State”
He also spoke about Milei and stated that, “although he won the elections”nothing that he held “represents the ideas deeply rooted in Argentine society or some sudden change in the cultural and historical values of the Argentine people”. Likewise, he gave signals about his role in the face of next year’s legislative elections.
“There is messages that are more than messages: needs, emergencies, that have to do with rebuilding the quality of life of enormous sectors of the population”, stated the Buenos Aires governor.
The governor also accused the libertarian of “defrauding” voters by proposing that the adjustment would be paid for by “the caste” and “corrupt elites.” “People thought that a small privileged minority would suffer austerity and that it would solve all their problems,” he said.
Finally, Kicillof avoided commenting on a possible candidacy for the 2027 presidential elections. “Discussing at this point who will succeed Milei is for fortunetellers,” he said, although he added: “But I will dedicate all my efforts to the construction of a political alternative capable of get Argentina out of this tragedy.”
Axel Kicillof called for “unity” in Peronism
Last week, the Buenos Aires governor called for “unity” in Peronism and called to stop “reproducing” the “methodologies and behaviors” that led the opposition space to defeat in last year’s presidential elections.
“Let’s find unity and stop reproducing methodologies and behaviors that brought us here”he assured Kicillof, after former president Cristina Kirchner questioned her lack of definition regarding leaning toward her figure for the leadership of the Justicialist Party (PJ).
Along these lines, the provincial leader referred to Fernández de Kirchner: “It is in the heart of the people, also in mine, and I do not have to test that feeling,” Kicillof stressed.
