In the midst of the rearrangements in Together for Change prior to the electoral definitions, Patricia Bullrich and María Eugenia Vidal will appear together in the coming days.
Until some time ago associated with the figure of Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, at this stage the former Buenos Aires governor aligned herself with Mauricio Macri and proposed to appear
"100% autonomous"
in the internal dispute of the PRO for the presidential candidacy.
Both with aspirations to dispute that application, Vidal and Bullrich held a meeting and let out
"good harmony"
between the two.
At one point the possibility of coinciding this weekend at the Harvest Festival in Mendoza arose.
It will not be there because Vidal will not travel to that province, although they agreed to advance with joint activities.
"On both sides there is the will to take the photo and work together
," they confirmed close to the former governor, and the same was advanced in the team of the PRO headline.
The rapprochement does not imply that Vidal will be on Bullrich's side in the fight with Rodríguez Larreta for the PRO presidential candidacy, as clarified in the deputy's environment.
“The value that María Eugenia has is the good bond and the possibility of doing things with everyone, something that the rest do not.
Every time Horacio asked her, she was there
and they are going to continue doing things together", they pointed out in reference to the press conferences led by Rodríguez Larreta before the controversies over the custody of Cristina Kirchner in her house in Recoleta and the co-participation of the City .
However, in that political society - "we are the same", the head of Government used to say - there was a change after the 2021 legislative elections, in which Vidal returned to the City and "did not feel contained" in
that
campaign .
She then expressed her rejection of the versions about a new candidacy in the City this year, in this case to succeed Rodríguez Larreta, slipped into the Buenos Aires administration headquarters on Uspallata street as an eventual solution to the internal disputes in the district. .
“
She's not bad with Horacio, she has a good bond, but today she is 100% autonomous.
Her political career depends on herself.
As Mauricio says, María Eugenia is a synthesis between Horacio and Patricia, due to firmness and proven management capacity”, Vidal's shipowners reinforced their positioning.
With "firmness" they alluded to his toughest speech and partly coincident with Bullrich.
“
They are in tune not only in the 'why' but also in the how.
It is time to work on that, on how we are going to carry out the changes, with what strategy of agreements outside and also inside of Together for Change ”, they returned to the PRO headline team.
In turn, recently, Vidal gave signs of recognizing Macri as a leader in space and assured that he would postpone his aspirations only in the event that the former president ran: "I am not competing
against Mauricio, I am against Horacio and Patricia." .
Before traveling to Europe, Macri had
accompanied Vidal at the inauguration of his campaign offices
in Retiro, the same day that Rodríguez Larreta presented his candidacy.
The former president placed the Buenos Aires legislator Darío Nieto - a leader he trusted - in the team of the former Buenos Aires deputy chief, in the same way as Hernán Lombardi - another of the men closest to him - of him with Bullrich.
Even so, from both camps they took it upon themselves to emphasize that the rapprochement between the two pre-candidates for president is not a strategy devised by Macri.
“
Mauricio sees it well, but it is not a request from him.
It is the relationship between them that is flowing ”, they said close to Vidal.
"There is a good vibe, they have finished with issues of the past and they are willing to work and face the future together," they assured Bullrich's side.
In the talk they held, they agreed to consider the short circuits over.
For example, in the 2021 elections, Bullrich assured that the space expected a higher percentage in the City and
that she would have obtained more votes
.
Vidal had headed the ticket to which the former Security Minister aspired at one point.
Then Rodríguez Larreta prevailed in the definition of the candidates.
The current deputy and the head of the PRO, in turn, could have another point in common for the next electoral dispute: the candidate for governor of Buenos Aires.
Bullrich currently walks with three candidates (Néstor Grindetti, Joaquín de la Torre and Javier Iguacel), although he maintains an open channel with
Cristian Ritondo
, driven by Vidal.
The four seek to dispute the place of Diego Santilli, the one chosen by Rodríguez Larreta.
Can these movements lead to an electoral agreement?
“
Not for now.
Today they compete for the same.
But they are going to work together because they are part of the same space”, they responded in the offices of the former Buenos Aires president.
“There is a long way to go, there is no rush.
Anxiety today is on the other side ”, they launched the Chicana from the Bullrich sector, after Rodríguez Larreta presented his and Santilli's candidacy in the province.
