Alberto Fernández spoke of his decision not to run for a second term. He said he would hand over the presidential sash to whoever was elected by popular vote.

The cabinet chief, Agustín Rossi, also expressed himself in the same line. Cristina Kirchner spoke of "cover-up" of the attack against her and pointed to Patricia Bullrich as a scapegoat for the problems of the country, she said in an interview with El Destape radio.
