It was not in anyone's plans: the meeting in
Santiago Cafiero's
office
was destined to finish finalizing the economic announcements that the President himself had planned to make official this Thursday.
But the strong pressure from La Cámpora and
Cristina Kirchner
to change the course of the government, crystallized as never before with the resignations presented in writing by Eduardo "Wado" de Pedro, Luana Volnovich, Fernanda Raverta, Juan Cabandié, Roberto Salvarezza, Tristán Bauer and a group of front-line officials who respond to Kirchnerism, disrupted the plans. And they caused an unprecedented crisis within the coalition.
With
Alberto Fernández
and his intimate nucleus of collaborators in José C. Paz - they returned to Casa Rosada after 4:30 p.m. with stern gestures and without speaking to accredited journalists - the chief of staff then summoned the rest of the senior ministers to his office. confidence of the head of state who
are furious with the maneuver K.
In addition to Claudio Moroni, Cecilia Todesca, Matías Kulfas and Martín Guzmán, ministers Matías Lammens, Gabriel Katopodis, Juan Zabaleta and a handful of officials, including Vilma Ibarra, arrived at Cafiero's office.
In addition, Aníbal Fernández, former Chief of Staff and director of the Río Turbio Carboniferous Mine, arrived at the Casa Rosada.
Until now, the response of the Casa Rosada was to try to establish that on the same Sunday of the electoral debacle of the PASO, which caused a political tsunami within the Frente de Todos, the entire cabinet presented its resignation.
And that the advance of the Minister of the Interior and the rest of the officials who identify themselves with the vice president decreed "the end of the government of the Frente de Todos": this was stated before
Clarín
from one of the offices next to the Chief of Staff.
Now, the President and his most loyal group of collaborators break down the options they have on the table, while the versions multiply.
The most transcendent is the one that accounts for the possibility that
Sergio Massa
, who summoned the officials of the Renovador Front to the offices of Avenida del Libertador at 800, take charge of the Headquarters of the Cabinet.
Cafiero has long been one of the most targeted by the coalition partners along with Guzmán and Kulfas.
