Javier Milei: the cabinet will be shaped by the new Congress | OneFootball

President Javier Milei gave details about the Cabinet changes he has in mind after the electoral victory, and predicted that the modifications to his team could be implemented starting December 10, with the new composition of the chambers.

“The Cabinet will be built in light of the new Congress, of the alliances I need to seek in order to pass the agenda. The important thing is to achieve the reforms,” he revealed in an interview with A24.

Along the same lines, he emphasized: “The instrument for that is the new Cabinet. Who would have thought we could win the province of Buenos Aires? If we don’t realize that this reshapes the political structure I need to build in order to negotiate and pass laws, we’re not understanding anything.”

“The Chamber changes on December 10. I have some time,” he argued the day after La Libertad Avanza garnered 40.84 percent of the votes, surpassing Fuerza Patria, which accumulated 24.50 percent.

He also left open the possibility of incorporating representatives from other political forces, while denying internal tensions between presidential advisor Santiago Caputo and the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei.

“Anyone who helps achieve results, I will bring them in. I’m a Bilardista and my commitment is to my 2023 electoral contract. I will do it,” he stated when asked about bringing in representatives from allied groups.

After last Sunday’s photo, where he appeared on stage with the Iron Triangle, Milei denied rumors of internal conflicts. “Where were Karina Milei and Santiago Caputo while I was giving the speech? That’s not going to change. They are the architects of this. I’m the communicator, the one who carries the ideas, the one with the vision, but someone has to make the machine work.”

For his part, he highlighted the role of Chief of Cabinet Guillermo Francos amid rumors of his departure and avoided giving details about future changes to the Government team. “(Guillermo Francos) has a very prominent role within the Government. We’ll see, in light of the new Cabinet, how things turn out,” he anticipated.

“I think it’s disrespectful that, for people who have done so much, the media agenda wants to push them out,” Milei argued, who also spoke about forced changes such as those of ministers Patricia Bullrich (Security), Luis Petri (Defense), and presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni, who will have to take on their legislative commitments.

In another part of the interview with journalist Antonio Laje, Milei admitted that he did not imagine the electoral result achieved by the libertarian party, and highlighted the campaign of PRO deputy Diego Santilli. “Santilli’s campaign was admirable,” he emphasized, adding that the re-elected legislator was “one of the first” to believe in the alliance between PRO and La Libertad Avanza.

Finally, the head of state revealed that the names to succeed the current officials are already under consideration, although he avoided making them public. “Giving those definitions would mean ruining their lives before they even take office. I need things to work and for people to be able to work calmly. Those who are chosen know they are,” he concluded.
