The former president targeted the Government and also her internal opposition. Criticism of Macri and his relationship with libertarians.


The

reappearance of Cristina Kirchner

- now in a

33-page

paper

format

- shook the political arc while

Javier Milei

explores an agreement with Mauricio Macri and just a week after the failure of the omnibus law in Congress.

“Cristina is convinced that the Government is taking

accelerated steps towards dollarization

and that it will come to fruition this year.

“It's what worries her the most,” they explain at the former president's small table.

Close to the two-time president they received with joy the reaction of the Casa Rosada against CFK, which restored its centrality.

The former vice president's collaborators justify the

timing

of her

first public intervention

since the assumption of the libertarian administration.

“She let two months pass,

she waited for the Government to have some filming

and for the extraordinary sessions to pass,” she explains.

CFK's message was for the Government and also for the internal party of Peronism, which still has not defined new leadership and without anyone daring to exercise it.

“The same thing always happens, she waits prudently

until people begin to despair

,” says one of the leaders who talks the most with the two-time president.

Despite the vacancy in the opposition leadership, which according to the vice president transcends Peronism, in UxP they maintain that

there will be no more escapes

like those carried out by the deputies who respond to Tucumán governor

Osvaldo Jaldo

.

Inside Kirchnerism they explain that in the face of the deterioration of the economy - which is felt especially in the Conurbano - the former president seeks

to safeguard the voter base

that Sergio Massa achieved with an eye on 2025. “We are doing the same as in 2017. ", they point out regarding the formation of Unidad Ciudadana in which, in addition to almost the entire Peronist spectrum, related unions and, in 2019, social organizations came together.

The former president is convinced that Milei voters still retain their expectations about the future of management and the economy, but she thinks that

Milei's popular support has already begun to erode.

That is why in the conclusions of the document she has highlighted the need for any government to

endorse the legitimacy of origin in that of the exercise

.

When interpreting the 33 pages of the text, the vice president's main collaborators maintain that the former president

marked a boundary

between what her deputies and legislators are willing to support or reject at the beginning of the legislative year.

Some self-criticism

In the hard core of CFK they point out that the text also has a

self-critical nature

, although the former vice president has once again distanced herself from the meager results of the management of the Frente de Todos that she built.

Alberto Fernández's former vice president emphasizes that until now all of the Executive's policies were executed in the past and failed.

As an example of the supposed

updating

of the former president's thinking, they point out the

green light for the partial privatization of some public companies

, although they clarify - like CFK in the document - that she had already marked that direction with the

nationalization of 51 percent of YPF

in 2012.

Security

is another of the flags that the vice president does not want to give to the opposition, which is why she insisted on the need to “abandon sloganism

,

in reference to the heavy hand vs. guaranteeism.

Cristina is talking about the things that interest people

,” they maintain.

Along the same lines, those closest to CFK remember - although the document does not mention the topic - the discussion on educational matters that the then president at the beginning of the ordinary sessions of 2012. “

They work 4 hours a day and have 3 months of vacation

,” he then noted about the teachers.

At the Instituto Patria

they evaluated the meetings with several ministers very positively

.

Especially the tweets of the Minister of Economy

Luis Caputo

.

He is nervous

,” they paraphrased the slogan that Kirchnerism turned into a flag against

Clarín

.

They take the agreement for granted

The former president and Kirchnerism reiterate that the

agreement between Macri and Milei is already a fact

and that the landing of Caputo and Patricia Bullrich was never in a personal capacity.

The name of the founder of the PRO

is repeated more times than that of the current head of state

throughout the 33 pages, on 25 occasions.

“They complained about the positions of La Cámpora and

Macri has a placement agency

,” they shoot in the Patria about the positions in vogue for PRO leaders.

In Kirchnerism, they describe the President's attacks against Milei as “political violence” and

avoid describing it as a polarization strategy

similar to the one that Kirchnerism opted for in power.

In any case, they imagine that the sincerity of the agreement between the PRO and LLA favors the electoral power of Peronism and the aggrieved opponents with whom they could build bridges.

In the Frente Renovador the reading was similar to that of its partners in UxP.

“The strange thing is not that Cristina spoke, but how they reacted in the Government, about all the failures.

“She is very concerned about what is happening and what will happen if dollarization goes ahead,” they pointed out while

Sergio Massa

strictly complies with his

self-imposed

silence stampa

for one hundred days and some mayors resist his leadership.

A municipal executive pointed out another possible motivation for the two-time president to break the silence.

He wanted to distance himself from supposed support for Milei

,” the mayor stated about Roberto Navarro's editorial that echoed the former vice president's supposed thoughts on the direction of the President's management and 'Kirchnerist' ways.
