The Front of All seeks a candidate: Cristina does not get on, Massa is driven by the market and Kicillof resists

2023-04-29T00:02:02.470Z


The vice president did not give clear signals in her public appearance and there is concern in the militancy. The Minister of Economy does numbers to see the inflation that is coming and the Governor knows that he can be forced by his boss.


"This is a total downturn," an official K told

Clarín

at the end of the act at the Teatro Argentino in La Plata.

Cristina had just appeased the songs of "President", to ask that they not "do the curls" and conclude with "I already gave what she had to give".

The "Fight and Come Back" operation will continue anyway:

Kirchnerism has no other flag

and the unconditional will continue to embrace it.

"We are denying reality a bit, but we are still going forward," a reference was honest.

The Frente de Todos Corporation now has

only two shareholders

: Cristina and Massa, in the midst of the currency crisis and a delicate economic front.

Alberto is

a ghost condemned to formalities, waiting for the arrival of December 10

.

On Thursday the vice did not give any electoral definition or offer solutions for the present.

He only brought Milei into the ring, in an imitation of the fight against the 90.

"It will have costs for Cristina not to be a candidate for anything. The militancy does not care," an official from the Kirchnerist political wing told this newspaper.

"The relationship we have with Cristina will change if she doesn't put her body in this one," he added.

Nobody wants to be the guest of honor at a party that's over

: Axel doesn't want anything to do with a presidential candidacy but he knows that, if necessary, Cristina can force him to step forward.

While Massa repeats in private that he will not be a candidate, his government operators work on the opposite.

Scioli seems to be the only one who unifies action with desire, but

he hasn't gotten enough support so far

.

The demands on Massa decrease as the situation becomes more complicated: they went from lowering inflation to 3% to avoiding, even if it was, everything getting out of hand.

The Arrive Plan was shortened to August

.

-If Sergio puts it in, he is the consensus candidate -they say Cristina said-.

What does he understand by "emboccarla"?

"Everything Massa said about investigating and persecuting the caves always came out wrong," says an old leader at the door of the Teatro Argentino.

"And we saw the matter of grabbing the Central's twine to stop the blue with the macrismo in 2018 and it didn't end well either," he adds.

Internal criticism of the boss's management appears in Massa's team: "Sergio wants the gap between the official and the parallel to be in the 80% zone and that is unsustainable if we do not take basic measures. We cannot have the same conditions that they fell in love with in December when there were US$8 billion in the BCRA and inflation was 5%, which now when there are no reserves, inflation is above 7% and many more pesos were sent to the streets”.

The agricultural dollar, meanwhile, is not working to rebuild reserves.

A document that Vice Minister Gabriel Rubinstein presented to the IMF and which

Clarín

accessed says that the Central was going to accumulate US$ 3.2 billion in reserves between April and June.

Most of these funds should come from the field and, with April over,

the Central did not accumulate even 10% of that figure

.

The estimate of the LCG consultancy, with four weeks of processed information, indicates that April would have inflation of 8.4% per month in the category of Food in Supermarkets, which is where the greatest price controls operate.

If inflation in April or May is close to 10%,

Massa runs the risk of entering the worst scenario

: running behind the financial market that will put him in trouble again as soon as a negative number appears.
