The electoral triumph of La Libertad Avanza (LLA) has given a boost to President Javier Milei, who, with the idea of implementing urgent changes to his team, appears calmer and will take until December 10 to make the modifications. The Chief of Staff, Guillermo Francos, who arrived at the end of election weekend with his energy nearly depleted, seems to have regained the president's favor and will continue in his post until at least December 10. As early as next Thursday, he will accompany Milei to the first major meeting with a large group of allied governors visiting the Casa Rosada to begin outlining the initial agreements that will allow the Executive Branch to implement second-generation reforms. However, in his interview last Monday, his first as a libertarian after winning the legislative election, he left some doubts about the future of the coordinating minister. A similar situation is occurring at the Ministry of the Interior, currently led by Lisandro Catalán, a protégé of Francos, and it is estimated that if Francos steps aside, Catalán will do the same. In parallel with the call to the governors, the possibility of further changes is gaining more momentum. "We will see, in light of the new Cabinet, how things will shape up," the head of state hinted. The suggestive phrase left the door open to variables for the position. For this, there are at least two names that are being considered to succeed Francos whenever the President makes the decision. The truth is that Sunday's results altered the libertarian plans. With the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, as the "big winner" of the election, it is expected that her place will be taken by someone from her inner circle, which is where the possibility of her spokesperson, Manuel Adorni, a recently elected legislator, taking the role comes in. Prior to the election, presidential advisor Santiago Caputo was tipped for the post, with the intention to fulfill the wish of several officials who were calling for his formal appointment, something Milei did not dislike. "Guillermo Francos plays a very prominent role within the Government." "Things had a certain logic, but with the election result, everything is subject to a reset," they repeat time and again in the halls of Balcarce 50 while awaiting the first changes, which, according to libertarians, will take place "sooner rather than later." At this time, there is talk of the possibility that the consultant could take Catalán's office, located on the ground floor, one floor below the offices of the Chief of Staff's office, although his circle denies the possibility.
