Behind the victory of Javier Milei in the ballot over Sergio Massa, he was expected to meet with President Alberto Fernández at the Casa Rosada this Monday to begin the transition. However, from the Office of the President-Elect, they reported that “So far there is no meeting planned“between the outgoing president and the leader of La Libertad Avanza (LLA). In addition to this, they recalled that the responsibility of the government until December 10 lies with Fernández and Massa.
“We want to inform you that up to this moment there is no meeting scheduled between President Alberto Fernández and President-Elect Javier Milei”, they reported through a statement posted on social networks. The expectation lies in what the libertarian will ask the president to begin the “transition.” The Milei team wants to have the fine management numbers. In that sense, Massa will not be at the meeting, but Raúl Rigo, Secretary of the Treasury, and Miguel Pesce, president of the Central Bank, will appear.
Sergio Massa will continue to lead the Economy and appointed a transition cabinet
Likewise, in the statement they stated that until Milei’s inauguration, which will be on December 19, “President Alberto Fernández and the Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, are constitutionally responsible for the situation of Argentines.” The clarification took place following the former candidate of Unión por la Patria (UxP) stated following recognizing his defeat that as of this Monday “The responsibility of providing certainty regarding economic functioning” will be the president-elect’s.
Another of the key points of the statement is that they will not make any announcement regarding how the Cabinet will be formed until next December 10. “From the Office of the President-Elect we want to inform that There will be no announcement of appointments regarding positions in the future government until the day of the inauguration“, they indicated in this regard. However, this morning the economist announced some names: Mariano Cúneo Libarona will be the Minister of Justice and Sandra Petovello will be in charge of Human Capital.
In addition to this, they detailed that the libertarian held “early hours of the morning” telephone conversations with foreign dignitaries “who communicated in order to express their support for the new President.” “The President-Elect ratified the desire to work in defense of democracy and free trade with all countries in the world,” they stressed.
