In his first activity

after the institutional cataclysm

that ended with the changes in the Cabinet, President Alberto Fernández meets this Saturday with the governors in an attempt to

relaunch his administration.

The president traveled around 11 to La Rioja.

After the resignation and subsequent ratification, the Minister of the Interior, Eduardo "Wado" de Pedro,

is part of the delegation

.

Also accompanying Fernández are the Ministers of Public Works, Gabriel Katopodis;

from Social Development, Juan Zabaleta (two who had not submitted their resignations and who maintained their positions);

and the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Serio Massa.

The new Chief of Cabinet,

the former governor of Tucumán Juan Manzur, is already in La Rioja.

The meeting will be held in one of the governor's residences, located about twenty minutes from the provincial capital,

and will be attended by at least eight governors.

From La Rioja they confirmed to

Clarín

that Raúl Jalil, governor of Catamarca;

Adolfo Rodríguez Saá, president of San Luis;

and Sergio Ziliotto, from La Pampa.

It is discounted that Gustavo Bordet, from Entre Ríos, another of those who publicly expressed his support for Fernández, will also be present.

Cordovan Governor Juan Schiaretti will not be part of the game.

In his environment they commented that he was not invited and that he had not gone either because his strength is not part of the Front of All.

Welcome colleague @JuanManzurOK, a friend from La Rioja.

Successes in your new management.

The hour requires us to work together for the happiness of our People and the greatness of the Nation, working with commitment to pay off the internal debt that we have with the Argentines.

At the request of Wado de Pedro, the governor of Santa Fe

Omar Perotti will connect by Zoom to the meeting.

At lunch, the President will

try to

finish collecting wills

and capture a clear sign of support for his administration.

Official sources did not rule out that the head of state would present his new government team in the province where his father was born.

The oath will finally be on Monday.
