The new legislative session will host a discussion session sooner rather than later that will set the pulse of Buenos Aires politics in 2026, a key year for the leader’s aspirations. Jorge Macrito seek re-election in 2027. In February, the presidencies of the commissions must be determined, a vote that begins after the adoption of the approval of the local budget and the definition of the authorities and which will ensure the solidity of the “Non-aggression pact” that the PRO and LLA have signed.
From the libertarian bench that presides Pilar Ramirezhave already announced that they will apply to chair several important commissions, including finance, planning, security, constitutional affairs or justice. This could strain the connection with the PRO, in line with the national discussion that took place in Congress last week, when the appointment of members of the Auditor General of the Nation (AGN) provoked a strong statement from the yellow party and a response from the president of the bloc, Cristian Ritondo.
“The relationship is broken. It will take a lot for them to regain our trust. “Two years ago we selflessly helped them and now they agree with Kirchnerism,” she assured at the time of the block leadership in connection with the appointment of Monica Almadafrom Freedom Advances; Juan Forlonfor Kirchnerism; And Pamela CallettiAlly of the Governor of Salta, Gustavo Saenz.
own Mauricio Macri He closely followed the alternatives for this session in the House of Representatives. At some point the PRO leader remembered Jorge Triaca take a place in the AGN; from the former president’s environment and before the consultation of Infobaethey also spoke of a “Relationship that has broken down“, and they blamed the President of the Deputies, Martin Menemand the presidential advisor Eduardo Lule Menem“to have reached an agreement with the governors of the north and to be allied with Kirchnerism“.
We return to the city of Buenos Aires. Almost Jorge Macri There is confidence for the second part of the government and they talk about a “more orderly” and “stronger” legislative bloc, which has grown from seven to 11 members, and to this we must count the addition of people with a lot of dignity, like Waldo Wolff, Laura Alonso or Silvia Lospennato herself.” They become the spokesperson trio of the ruling party.
As for the relationship with the LLA, it will fluctuate, as is the case at the national level. Jorge Macri knows his future depends on luck Javier Milei. If the president maintains the level of popularity that allowed him to win the general election and if he keeps the dollar and inflation under control, this will be transmitted to the LLA-sponsored candidate and the competition with the PRO for the common electorate will become more complex. It’s a race that Senator Patricia Bullrich is already registered to run. In this scenario Several Macrista leaders have no problem participating a STEP of the entire room in the middle right.
But the relationship with La Libertad Avanza can fail. In this case, they say, “the difference is in management and making the city work.” And they minimize Horacio’s ambitions Rodríguez Larretawho has already assured that he wants to take over the leadership of the government of Buenos Aires again. “The center no longer exists in the city; the centrist spaces have been diluted. These elections have shown that the center-right is the dominant sector and the PRO must compete or unite there,” said a key Buenos Aires leader.
At the parliamentary level, Larreta managed to form a bloc of seven members, an important number for the ruling party in the event of a break with the LLA, since it will need these votes and those of Peronism to be able to pass the laws. For this reason, the dynamics of commission distribution will also be crucial for the bloc led by Claudia Neira, the first minority with 20 members, which now has Leandro as a reference. Santoro and that Juan Manuel is driving Elm treeshistorical leader of the PJ of Buenos Aires.
Another special feature of the new legislative period. Influential businessman and former Boca president Daniel Angelicimanaged to remain at the administrative secretary, a key position as she manages the parliament’s budget, now responsible for Cristián Gribaudo. Political leadership remains in the hands of Matías López, a young leader close to Diego Santilli and highly respected across the blocs. There will also be changes in the press directorate.
