Before the ban, Alberto Fernández will seek in the next 48 hours to take political refuge in the heart of Greater Buenos Aires with a single objective: to try to refocus the campaign on the post-pandemic agenda after the leak of the birthday celebrations in Olivos, in full quarantine, they will have a full impact on the presidential credibility.
First La Matanza and then Avellaneda
, well identified with the ruling party, will be the two districts in which Fernández, the main candidates of the Frente de Todos and the partners of the Government coalition will disembark between this Monday and Tuesday in line with the raid of Announcements that were planned before the image of Olivos was leaked, in July 2020, with the entertainment of the first lady, without social distancing, and with the presence of the head of state.
An unexpected damage in the middle of the campaign that once again rekindled the internal criticism of Kirchnerism
towards Fernández's closest environment and the president himself.
To try to hide the
affair
of Olivos in quarantine,
the ruling party will seek to continue in that sense in the path of announcements
that included in recent days the zero-rate credit program for monotaxists, the registered employment plan for rural workers, the expansion the gas tariff reduction regime for three million users and the launch of the Pre-trip to stimulate domestic tourism.
An
agenda focused on the post-pandemic that at the end of the weekend was paralyzed
, and the Cabinet and the staff of the Frente de Todos in shock, due to the photograph of Olivos revealed by the
LN +
channel
.
After La Matanza, a staging prepared for this Monday for the inauguration of the University Innovation Center of that district, it will be the turn of Isla Maciel, in Dock Sud, on Tuesday.
On that day, the leadership of the government coalition should appear in the heart of Avellaneda in an act of handing over of houses -Integral Plan of Habitat Isla Maciel- organized by Minister Jorge Ferraresi, an official who has the absolute support of Cristina Kirchner .
Prior to the beginning of the ban on events "likely to promote the winning of suffrage", on Wednesday, as provided for in the electoral calendar 25 days before the STEP.

It will be,
in the absence of unforeseen events, the public reunion of Fernández and the former President
- Máximo Kirchner would also join - after the presentation of the candidates on Saturday, July 24 in Escobar.
It is not the first time that the President and Cristina Kirchner agree publicly in the face of a crisis that shakes the foundations of the coalition:
each time they went on stage, they did so in a climate of permanent tension
.
For the functioning of the Justice, the performance of the cabinet or the closing of lists, among other palatial disputes.
Now it is the carelessness with which the head of state himself corrodes his leadership.
It transpires that, from the first moment, the vice president alerted about them.
On the radio, it was Oscar Parrilli who asked, once the controversy had been revealed, to put his eye "on those who are next to the President."
The Frente de Todos is, in any case, obliged to close ranks in Buenos Aires territory - this Saturday, La Cámpora came to the aid of the presidential figure - the epicenter of the K vote and where the government's luck is at stake for the second tranche of management.
It is the main obsession of the vice, who on Wednesday returned to Lomas de Zamora for the second time in just over a month.
In the third section of Greater Buenos Aires, the President still maintains good popularity numbers
, despite the economic and social urgencies.
It is precisely the place where the Government needs to preserve its greatest electoral strength.
And bury, as the days go by, the scandal over the photos of Olivos.
In the middle, from Olivos they sought to divert media attention with the dissemination of a couple of images of Fabiola Yañez with both hands on her belly that, as this newspaper was able to reconstruct, took several hours of deliberations.
This week, it transcends, there could be an official communication.
The officials consulted by
Clarín
who spoke with Fernández between Friday and the weekend assured that they have no indication. Presidential spokesmen responded that the order of the head of state was: "It is neither confirmed nor denied."
