Buenos Aires, November 4, 2025 - Total News Agency (TNA) - The new Chief of Staff, Manuel Adorni, confirmed this Tuesday that the Government will call extraordinary sessions of Congress starting December 10, with the aim of debating the 2026 Budget and advancing the main economic and legal reforms promoted by President Javier Milei.
Adorni explained that once the new Chamber is formed, the Executive will seek to give priority treatment to the next year's Budget and then address key initiatives, such as tax reform, labor modernization, and the modification of the Criminal Code.
The 2026 Budget will be the central axis of the deliberations, in a framework of negotiations that could extend until the end of the parliamentary year.
Adorni's announcement also coincided with his first public response to the criticism from former President Mauricio Macri, who questioned his lack of experience to head the Chief of Staff and had proposed the head of YPF, Horacio Marín, as a replacement for Guillermo Francos.
"It's his opinion and I have already been asked dozens of times about the tweet," Adorni replied, stating that Macri's opinion "is a secondary issue" because the President is the one who chooses the Cabinet.
"It caught my attention more than it surprised me. I accept the challenge of this position and I hope that when my term is over, I can tell Macri that he was wrong," concluded the official.
With the call for extraordinary sessions, the Executive seeks to regain political initiative and give a signal of governability after weeks of internal tension.
"The only changes that are coming are those of Petri and Bullrich," assured the Head of Cabinet.
Adorni also ratified that he will continue to serve as presidential spokesperson and announced that the official communication modality will have a more flexible character.
"At times it will be more informal, and when there is something to announce that warrants it, I will come out to hold a press conference," he stated.
Regarding the recent resignation of Cecilia Loccisano as Vice Minister of Health, the official downplayed the political impact and clarified that her departure was due to "personal issues."
"In this case, she is leaving for personal reasons," he said.
"I don't know why it makes so much noise when people feel that a cycle has ended," he added.
Furthermore, he considered that questioning his appointment "does not contribute to the objective of the Government of the time doing well."
"Proposing a person who today has a spectacular performance, like Marín at YPF, and putting him in an uncomfortable situation seems unfair to me," Adorni concluded.
