In two weeks, Mauricio Macri captured the Ministry of Energy and the vice presidency of Aerolíneas Argentinas. The internal of the PRO for 2025.
While Buenos Aires Peronism closes ranks with Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, in the PRO The internal conflict between Mauricio Macri and Patricia Bullrich for spaces in the Cabinet and for the 2025 electoral setup intensifies in the face of an eventual alliance with La Libertad Avanza de Javier Milei in the country’s main electoral district.
Macri, who yesterday intervened in the meeting of the block of PRO deputies to rally the troops behind Javier Milei’s 2025 Budget, celebrates the reestablishment of diplomatic channels with Santiago Caputo who, after the support of Macri legislators in Deputies, to the veto to university financing, led to the landing of María Tettamanti in the Ministry of Energy.
Mauricio Macri approaches
The rapprochement protocol between Macri and the Casa Rosada continued yesterday with the designation of Omar de Marchi as vice president of Aerolíneas Argentinas. The former deputy and candidate for governor of Mendoza for the PRO has direct access to the President and functioned as a parliamentary liaison to the National Executive Branch. He had already crossed paths with Bullrich due to the insecurity rates in Mendoza. Friendly fire.
De Marchi’s appointment is also a signal for Luis Petri, the Minister of Defense who, together with Bullrich, challenged Alfredo Cornejo in the UCR in the race for the governorship of the province. Small gestures that aim to begin a thaw in the relationship between La Libertad Avanza and Macri in an electoral key. In parallel, yesterday in Deputies, the Government obtained a majority opinion, with the signatures of the PRO and the UCR, to declare the flag airline subject to privatization.
But there is more. The dialogue channel between Macri and Sandra Pettovello continues to flow. The departure of Leila Gianni from Capital Humano was taken as a gesture of good will and opening of the ministry to the PRO. But it does not yet conform to the range of positions offered by the minister to the former president. “Let’s keep talking”, is the message from the head of the PRO to the official.
Javier Milei advances in the provinces
Will the ruling parties be respected in 2025 in the districts where La Libertad Avanza is constituted as a party for the legislative elections but where allies such as Cornejo (Mendoza), Rogelio Frigerio (Entre Ríos) or Ignacio Torres (Chubut) govern? On Saturday Karina Milei will be in Santa Fe where the radical Maximiliano Pullaro governs to launch the LLA seal at the provincial level. He will do the same on Entre Ríos soil. The governors are willing to join lists with the ruling party in a new front that does not refer to Together for Change.
Last week, José Luis Espert He led a La Libertad Avanza campaign action on the property of a company in the central market of La Matanza. The economist is Milei’s candidate to head the ticket in the province of Buenos Aires. The PRO is offered meager places and accessories in a possible electoral front. Diego Santilli is the main trophy that LLA aspires to add to its list of Buenos Aires candidates. “But let them put together their own ballot and come third,” warns one of the main electoral organizers of the Casa Rosada in the province of Buenos Aires.
The Executioner by Patricia Bullrich
Macri monitors the operation of the bloc after Cristian Ritondo’s approach to Martín Menem in view of the 2025 electoral assembly. Ritondo is the president of the PRO in the province of Buenos Aires and Bullrich’s executioner in the party Assembly. The former president yesterday joined the meeting with PRO legislators where the 2025 Budget and the privatization of AA were discussed. Ritondo could also be rewarded for his support of the agenda of the forces of heaven in the Deputies. The head of the block could place a director in Banco Nación, a negotiation that is still open.
“What must be clear about this approach is that it is not for love”says one of the members of Macri’s small table. The head of the PRO attributes the drop in country risk, the price of the dollar and the rise in bonds to his support for the Casa Rosada. “The market asks Milei for political sustainability in the face of Cristina’s emergence and we give it that,” They boast in the yellow party.
