While Alberto Fernández held frantic meetings at the Olivos residence to find a way out of the serious crisis that his alliance with Cristina Kirchner is going through, at the Casa Rosada they sought to convey a climate of tranquility, even in gestures.
Thus, in the midst of his maximum government crisis less than two years after taking office, it was confirmed that
Fernández will be shown this Friday with Joe Biden,
while deciding whether or not to travel to Mexico to participate in the Summit of States of Latin America and the Caribbean (CELAC).
This Thursday afternoon, the Presidency reported the participation of Alberto F. in the
Forum of the Major Economies on Energy and Climate organized by the President of the United States.
This becomes now more than symbolic importance clear to the pressures faced by this time President of Cristina Kirchner loyalists and the vice president.
It is enough to hear the explosive audio of the ultra-Christian deputy Fernanda Vallejos and that

broadcast exclusively. This defines the president as an "occupier", a "squat", an "entrenched" and a "tenant" without votes in the Casa Rosada, and brands his administration and the Minister of Economy of working for "yankilandia" and for the International Monetary Fund.
The Energy Forum seeks to strengthen efforts on climate change and ensure success at the 26th United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP26), which will take place from October 31 to November 12, 2021 at the Scottish Event Campus. (SEC) of Glasgow (UK), wrote the Presidency.
By the way, Fernandez also has a trip to Rome on the agenda to participate in the G20 summit, at the end of October.
And another to Glasgow, Scotland, to participate in the climate summit, ten days before the primary elections.

The truth is that the crisis, which exploded after the defeat of the Frente de Todos in the primary elections last Sunday, coincided with the trips Alberto had planned for this weekend.
One suspended it: the president decided not to travel to New York, where on Tuesday, September 21, he must give his speech to the United Nations General Assembly.
Now it will do so virtually.
Meanwhile, Alberto seeks to compensate for the cancellation of the trip to New York with his participation in the Energías Forum with Biden.
In fact, it was
called by the US president and it is a high-level working meeting to which some allies of Washington are invited.

In the letter inviting him to be part of the event, Biden thanked President Fernández for his participation in the Leaders' Summit on Climate Change on April 22 and 23, 2021, and for being one of the hosts of the Summit on Regional Climate Change this month, recalled the Presidency this Thursday.
On the other hand, he has not yet decided whether this Friday he will put the crisis of his government aside for 24 hours and at the same time leave the presidency for more than a day in the hands of his vice, Cristina Kirchner.
Suspending your trip to Mexico would be a more sensible decision.
Because he and his foreign minister, Felipe Solá - whom the presidential adviser, Cecilia Nicolini seeks to replace - played all the chips to preside over CELAC.
This Saturday in Mexico City, Andrés Manuel Lopez Obrador will receive presidents from all over the region for the CELAC summit, whose presidency pro tempore he is promoting Argentina.
Even for weeks, Mexicans and Argentines promoted a negotiation that included Cubans and Venezuelans so that Nicaragua's opposition to Argentina's presiding over CELAC would be neutralized.
Both Nicolás Maduro and Miguel Díaz Canel would support a pro tempore presidency of CELAC by Argentina.
Felipe Solá and his Chief of Cabinet of the Chancellery, Guillermo Justo Chaves, traveled in advance to Mexico
