Although both would hate to admit such a slander, Mauricio Macri and Cristina Kirchner agree on one point: they both believe that the Argentine crisis is of such a significant magnitude that at some point the government and the opposition will have to sit down and talk about a political agreement to draw an exit path.

The vice president put it in writing in her letter last week, when she warned Alberto Fernández that

was in her hands

to solve what she called the dilemma of the bimonetary economy.

Macri never wrote it, but he spoke it with people who visited him this week in his offices in Olivos, although he accompanied that confession on one condition.

"Now you can't.

and say what it wants to discuss," said the former president.

The idea of ​​the agreement was in Macri's head even before Cristina's letter.

A month ago, in a reserved meeting with businessmen, he

.

"Imagine the scenario that you prefer: for example, Lavagna Minister of Economy, Redrado president of the Central Bank, or think of the

that you like the most. If the President does that,

", The babbling and doubts in the responses of his interlocutors, they convinced him of the difficulties involved in such a negotiation today.

The

launched by Elisa Carrió, when she requested the support of Juntos por el Cambio for the candidacy of Daniel Rafecas to the Procuratorate.

Carrió had been proposing that turn within Juntos por el Cambio, and he always received the no from the radicals and from Macri himself, who stopped trusting the proposals of the head of the Civic Coalition after he promoted Horacio Rosatti, whom the The former president reserves one of the harshest insults in his dictionary for him: he calls him "statist."

The idea of ​​Carrió not only bothered Macri.

, a guarantee for Cristina to reinforce her discontent with the federal judge.

Rafecas had even been enthusiastic that the agreement by name became a first step towards understanding.

In the opposition there are several who believe that the turn that would imply

to convince, for example, those who march again and again in the banners against the Government .

"The marches help us to contain traitors," says one of the leaders of Together for Change who holds each street call and anxiously awaits the one that will take place next Sunday.

In that vision, if the support for Rafecas is seen as a surrender and not as a move destined to save the republic, Together for Change can become a recipient and not a beneficiary of future banners.

In the ruling party, in contrast, there is no mosaic of opinions on the nomination of Rafecas.

Things are simpler there.

Alberto Fernández is in favor of keeping his candidate and Cristina did not lift a finger for Rafecas until now.

that changes the necessary majorities in the Senate to appoint a Procurator.

Another discrepancy: Fernández also wants a new law, but one that does not modify the majorities necessary to appoint the chief prosecutor.

Today, the difference between the President and his vice is that: if Cristina imposes her idea of ​​reducing the majority,

.

On the other hand, if the Casa Rosada gets the support of the opposition to reach the two-thirds of the Senate that are needed to appoint a Procurator, the situation is unlocked and the reform of the Public Ministry and the appointment can also be voted by Rafecas.

Despite the presidential anger, the Casa Rosada admits that Carrió's statements

who were willing to vote for Rafecas and did not do so for fear of public reprimands.

The Rafecas statement

and it will be the President's task to impose his plan that the Public Ministry Law be reformed without leaving out his candidate.

Yet it

for the new law regulating the operation of taxation can be approved in the Chamber of Deputies, but that is the

work of Sergio Massa.

It is a risky move, but the internal fight since Cristina spread her letter goes through a moment when only the brave are admitted.

This Monday, Senator

in a long lunch alone the intentions of his boss.

It is seen that the two members of the presidential formula are not talking much in recent days.

Fernández made his spokesmen say that he has no intention of putting together an agreement with the opposition and it was not necessary for anyone to add to that phrase

.

The President knows that calling for an agreement now involves two things: accepting that he is running after the vice president and admitting that he alone cannot manage the crisis.
