The former minister knows that when the time comes, Karina Milei will ultimately lean towards her trusted man. For now, in Balcarce 50, they made significant efforts to emphasize that disagreements are in the past and that the relationship is now in excellent condition. "The rough edges have been smoothed over, and everything is fine now," they said ahead of the face-to-face meeting scheduled for this Thursday in the Chief of Staff's office, where they will discuss the ambitious parliamentary agenda of the governing force.
No one will admit it publicly, but both have begun to play their careers to secure that nomination. Buenos Aires, March 25 (NA) - The Casa Rosada will witness a meeting this Thursday between the Chief of Staff, Manuel Adorni, and the head of the libertarian bloc in the Senate, Patricia Bullrich, which will be their first meeting after their recent fallout. According to a reconstruction by Noticias Argentinas agencies, tensions had been escalating between them once the coordinator minister's trips became part of the public agenda.
Adorni did not see Bullrich as a staunch defender during those days, something he did observe in libertarian ministers and officials. Meanwhile, a sector of the ruling party sowed suspicions about the origin of the leaked video showing the minister walking on a tarmac heading to Punta del Este, Uruguay. Specifically, they held the senator responsible after two years she controlled the Airport Security Police (PSA), which still depends on the Ministry of Security.
In the upper house, in response, they claimed that advisor Santiago Caputo was behind spreading the official's travel video due to his loss of influence in the Ministry of Justice following the departure of Sebastián Amerio, a man very close to the consultant. "It was a blow to Karina," libertarians in contact with Bullrich said, referring to the coordinator minister as someone under the wing of the powerful Secretary General of the Presidency.
To this backdrop, it must be added that both Adorni and Bullrich are eyeing the mayoral candidacy for Buenos Aires in 2027.
