Jorge Macri move forward with changes in the Buenos Aires cabinet. At the exit of Diego Kravetz of the Security area adds the displacement of Nestor Grindetti of the Chief of Staff. His place will be taken Gabriel Sánchez Zinny, current number two of the outgoing official. Days ago he also left his position Secretary of Urban Development.
The head of the Buenos Aires government deepens the renewal of the Executive and focuses on one of the key areas for management and coordination with the ministries. Sources with an office in Parque Patricios told Ámbito that the departure of Grindetti responds to a search to oxygenate the cabinet for the electoral year: “It is part of a restructuring of the Buenos Aires government.”
Grindetti returned to the epicenter of Buenos Aires management at the hands of Macri last December, after the failed raid on Buenos Aires lands during the election of 2023 in which he presented himself as candidate to governor for the list of Patricia Bullrich. His previous step had been like mayor of Lanús. Previously it was finance minister porteño with Mauricio Macri as mayor.
Despite not continuing as Chief of Staff, he will not completely abandon activity within the City administration. “He will continue as secretary with the rank of minister in a new position”they advanced from the environment of the president of the Club Atlético Independiente. As confirmed by the Buenos Aires Government through a statement in the afternoon, Grindetti will be tasked with leading “Strategic issues of the Government with municipal, provincial and national jurisdictions.” The area will be linked to political strategy.
His departure generated surprise – and not so much – within the Buenos Aires political world. On the one hand, the proximity of Grindetti with Bullrich and the minister’s tensions with the Macri could mean a departure, sooner or later, from the official. But, furthermore, it occurred at a time when the departure of Kravetz, and his quick appointment as number 2 of the libertarian SIDEcaught attention. From the City they denied any type of relationship between both events and the departure of the former Chief of Staff.
As this medium was able to reconstruct, the change of position within the structure responds more to the search for a new management dynamic. “The double command that the leadership had made management difficult,” They explained about Grindetti and Sánchez Zinny, and clarified that The departure “was on good terms”. Even Macri expressly expressed his desire for him to continue within the Government: “I want you to help me with politics.”
Who is Gabriel Sánchez Zinny, the official who will replace Néstor Grindetti in City
The replacement of Grindetti It will come from within the PRO administration. It is about Gabriel Sánchez Zinny, current vice head of Cabinet Buenos Aires, emerged from the Larretista think tank Sophia Foundation. Since entering management at City was always linked to educational areas during governments of the PRO.
In the message, the City confirmed his appointment. “Sánchez Zinny had been serving until now as Vice Chief of Staff of Buenos Aires, and in this new stage he will be responsible for the daily monitoring of the management of each of the areas of the City Government.”they pointed out.
Another of the outings that took place in recent days was that of Álvaro García Resta, who until then served as Secretary of Urban Development. The former official, who had been working on the Urban Code since the beginning of the year, came from the management of Horacio Rodríguez Larreta. After the sanction of the CUR modifications, he resigned from his position. To explain his departure he cited “personal reasons.”
Changes in the Buenos Aires structure, with the legislative elections as a backdrop
The Buenos Aires Government assured that the changes are intended “adapt the structure of the Government to the needs of management”they stated from the Buenos Aires Executive. And they also pointed to the search for “new criteria” to face “future challenges for the benefit of the residents of the City.”
The legislative elections are just around the corner and, with the internal restructuring, Macri is aiming all his guns there. For that reason also rushes the signing of a decree that will unfold and advance the Buenos Aires elections to separate them from the nationals, as Ámbito learned.
In addition, the mayor of Buenos Aires will call extraordinary sessions with the aim of promoting a project to suspend the Open, Simultaneous and Mandatory Primaries (PASO). The estimated date for the debate in the Legislature should be between January or February, prior to the beginning of the opening of the regular period in March.
With both initiatives, Macri seeks to strengthen the competitiveness of the PRO in Buenos Aires territory and thus avoid the transfer of national libertarian votes to the local troop.
