Although without an important agenda - agreements, especially - the Senate
was preparing to meet this Thursday
.
But almost on the hour,
there were instructions
from Cristina Kirchner to
postpone
the session until next week.
The delay is due to the fact that the outgoing Jorge Taiana, who assumes this Tuesday as Defense Minister, should be accepted in this Thursday's session.
And a posteriori
the new senator who will occupy the former chancellor's seat
should swear in
.
But the matter could not be easily resolved.
The first substitute on the Citizen Unity ballot for 2017 - the one for which
Cristina Kirchner
was elected
in 2017 - is Juliana Di Tullio, a Kirchner with a
black palate
who currently occupies a seat on the Banco Provincia board of directors.
Cristina Kiirchner, president of the Senate.
The departure of Di Tullio from Bapro appeared problematic because the ruling party would lose the quorum in the entity's board of directors with his resignation.
And the new director must be appointed by the Buenos Aires Chamber of Senators, where Juntos por el Cambio has a
majority
.
Faced with this scenario, between the night of this Monday and this Tuesday, the possibility that Hector Recalde, a historical labor lawyer and former president of the Front for the Victory of Deputies, would take over as Taiana's replacement.
Negotiations in the Province
But the
political decision
, the sources consulted said, is for Di Tullio to take office.
Therefore, the administration of Governor Axel Kicillof must resolve his replacement in the BAPRO board of directors during the next week.
In the midst of versions that the provincial ruling party has already carried out polls in the block of Together for the Change of the Upper House of the Province, in the governorate they told
Clarín
that "
If the decision is for him to assume (Di Tullio), the of the BAPRO ".
And they added: "
We see no problem in that."
With 41 members, the Frente de Todos block in the Senate has a majority and its own quorum to sit in session.
The inclination for Di Tullio, despite the fact that it costs the government of the Province a negotiation with the opposition, is
due to a political issue.
