Martín Lousteau
confirmed this Wednesday his candidacy for head of Government
of the City of Buenos Aires, shortly after Mauricio Macri asked that Jorge Macri be the head of the Buenos Aires ticket.
"Obviously I am still a candidate. The preference that the former president has, and I understand it because the PRO is his party and his cousin, it is good that it is so, but
in the City Juntos por el Cambio governs, the PRO does not govern
, "
expressed in dialogue with radio Con Vos.
After stepping aside in his presidential candidacy, Macri in a series of interviews asked that his cousin and current Buenos Aires government minister be the candidate to succeed Horacio Rodríguez Larreta.
"Beyond the respect I have for Lousteau, no, the PRO has set a course for modernity and quality in management that the captain has to continue to set and we have someone very prepared. I regret that it has not been a product that was thought from the start. City Government Headquarters, but Jorge Macri has a unique experience that I did not have," he said on Monday in dialogue with Miter.
In this way, he once again supported the candidacy for head of government of his cousin, Jorge Macri, and gave the radical Evolution candidate a thumbs-down, who today ratified his candidacy.

Macri also added that Rodríguez Larreta will end up supporting the candidacy of his current chief of staff "because things fall under their own weight."
"I understand what the former president would like to happen, but it is a coalition in the City and in the country that has been oxygenated, it has been oxygenated a lot since radicalism," Lousteau said.
At the same time, he listed the "new" candidates that come from his Evolution space such as Rodrigo De Loredo, Maxi Pullaro, Martín Tetaz, Martín Verón Garay, among others.
"When the former president says that he is not going to compete and passes the testimony to the new generations and layers of the PRO, the responsibility lies with the new layers of the PRO. Hopefully the PRO has a renewal to provide different solutions just like radicalism, if there is a better radicalism and PRO, there will be a better JXC", sentenced the senator.
