Chief of Staff Guillermo Francos, who is well-versed in political machinations, on Sunday ruled out the possibility that apparent tensions between President Javier Milley and his deputy Victoria Villaruel could complicate the government. , although he had to admit that both “They have a lot of similarities, but they also have differences on some specific issues.”
Contrary to claims by people close to Villaruel, Francos insisted that the Senate President “If she is invited” The Ministry of Defense was speaking at the Armed Forces Friendship Dinner last Friday. This is when he was interviewed on the show “If it happens, it happens” drive Ignacio Ortelli go through radio rivadavia.
“They are the relationship between the President and the Vice President”Francos said he was trying to keep domestic affairs in perspective, and Villarreal’s absence from events this weekend with close ties to the military added an important chapter to an area so close to vice that it As for him, he did not even hesitate to defend many issues related to those convicted of the dictatorship.
Dictators don’t like this
The practice of professional and critical journalism is a fundamental pillar of democracy. That’s why it bothers those who think they have the truth.
“They have a complete and substantial agreement,” When Franco talks about liberal power couples, “Sometimes they disagree on specific issues, but that always happens, they are two political leaders fulfilling different institutional roles, each with their own…”
After Villaruel did not attend last Friday’s Armed Forces Friendship Dinner at the Ministry of Defense, Francos put the topic in Luis Petry’s backpack with a striking phrase: “I don’t know the details, but it is my understanding, from what the defense minister has told me, that Victoria was certainly invited to the event.”
According to Francos, Milley and Villaruel “had a relationship,” meaning the Senate president was present at the Senate meeting cabinet Held every Tuesday at Casa Rosada.
“She attends Cabinet meetings, attends presidential meetings and talks to the president. So I don’t think there’s a substantive issue, I wasn’t involved in that conversation, but I don’t think they have a substantive difference,” Francos added that he no longer knew how to get out of trouble and referred to other management issues.
“Sometimes there is a lot of speculation. Can she have differences? Yes, she can have differences, maybe she doesn’t fit in with the group La Libertad Avanza, yes, it doesn’t, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t formed a millet Presidential proposals that the President fundamentally proposed and that she supported when she was a representative of the country.”The official said the sentence was an attempt to emphasize that the “armed” figure in the LLA was the president.
Finally Francos asked “Don’t think too much about one thing” The vice president stressed “more in the media, political commentary and some leaders” and emphasized “the support of Congress.”
“Integration with PRO”
On the electoral issue, Francois expects that the results will “converge” with the Republicans in view of the legislative elections in 2025 and guarantee former President Mauricio Macri “ahead of his candidacy for the Senate.” He believes that “it is our destiny to move towards integration, and although I am not talking about integration, we must go and present to the electorate our common political response in the next election.”
“The big challenge for the next elections is to be able to form a parliamentary majority in this area. So far everything has been very difficult and complicated for us because between the PRO and the LLA we are a minority, so in any case on the other hand we There are other departments around that helped us with the Basic Law, but they gave us difficulties or pushed for other laws that would have been impossible to enforce, well, that wouldn’t have happened to most of us On us,” Francos said.
Likewise, he assured: “I think we still need to start formulating our electoral strategy for next year, but I believe we have something in common because a lot of people voted for us in the elections. The formula led by Javier Milei ’s second election, he was previously a PRO voter.
“In fact, within the government we have several PRO members, of course Patricia Bullrich, Luis Petri, Federico Stutzinger Sturzenegger), people who have worked in the PRO,” he stressed, adding: “They also have some differences, but in general we are following the same path that we followed in the campaign.
For Franco, the big challenge facing Free Avanza and the Liberal Party is “to try to reach an agreement that will give them their own majority in parliament for the next period”.
Macri “a leader who accompanies”
Asked about Mauricio Macri’s possible role in this scaffolding, the official assured that he had seen it “More like a walk-on leader than an active representative in parliament.”
“To me it seems a bit utopian, because I think President Macri is beyond the candidacy of the Senate,” he said of rumors that Javier Milai would offer him a candidacy for the upper house.
“He is President of the Republic… Going from President of the Republic to Senator is another thing. The image of the President is more important, but well, if he decides to be a candidate for the Senate, I think he will be an excellent candidate , but I don’t see the possibility, I don’t see him, ”Francos insists, facing another uncomfortable topic, as there are also tensions between the numerous voices from the Yellow Party and the LLA.
“What happened to Alberto Fernandez shows political decadence”
Francos also cited criminal charges of gender-based violence and insurance contract violations against former President Alberto Fernandez. “Shows the decadence that is part of Argentina’s political system,” Phrases pointing to Kirchnerism. Likewise, he added: “Even though it was covered up and not made public, in the end such issues were an important reason for Javier Milley’s resounding victory in the last election.”
for francos”, “The overall decline of the Kirchnerist political sector is why Millais won such a succession of elections.
“People think there is a serious decline in morals, But from the point of view of the general management of the country, from the economic situation that Argentina was going through, people at that time also said, well, that is no longer the case because of the general situation of the country, “he concluded.
“This reads like a novel, it’s unbelievable that all of these things that have been brought up over the past four weeks have happened. The most dramatic part is the violence that happened between the former president and his wife,” he said after the former first lady.
