Overview
- Manuel Adorni announced Friday that he will relinquish the presidential spokesperson role and focus on his duties as chief of cabinet.
- Adrián Ravier, a La Libertad Avanza deputy and economist, was named the new vocero presidencial and his move will vacate a congressional seat expected to be filled by Martín Matzkin.
- Adorni has acknowledged omitting roughly US$500,000 from his asset declarations, saying the funds came from prior private savings and cryptocurrency investments and that he intends to regularize them via an amnesty mechanism.
- A judicial inquiry led by Judge Ariel Lijo and prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita remains open into alleged illicit enrichment, and opposition blocs have pressed for interpellation with a July 2 session and possible motion of censure under discussion.
- The presidency plans public displays of unity, including a joint appearance in Rosario for the Day of the Flag, even as Ravier’s appointment reshuffles influence inside La Libertad Avanza and strengthens Patricia Bullrich’s bloc in the lower house.
