Executive Director Javier Miley has just experienced its first serious shock since the departure of the former chief of staff of ministers and one of his closest associates, Nicolas Posse, who will be replaced by the one who until this Monday was the Minister of the Interior, Guillermo Francos.

With the approval in the not so distant horizon of the Law “Fundamentals of Law and Starting Points of Freedom of Argentines”, better known as “omnibus law” or “basic law” A stellar blueprint for the executive and the axis of the structural reforms it needs to govern Argentina, Miley has reformed his cabinet and given more power to another man he trusts.

“The difference in the criteria and expectations of the Government’s progress and the tasks entrusted to him,” as detailed in the statement of the Chief of Staff, infuriated the hitherto strong and restrained man of the executive branch.

Posse, who does not give interviews and whose only public appearance came on May 14, when he assessed leadership in the Senate, “I will continue to accompany you, as from the first day, ideas of freedom, protection of life and property and the project of a free Argentina” and will do this “in a new role.”
