former chancellor Felipe Solá surprised many by reappearing this week supporting the Kirchnerist senator oscar parrilliin a challenge to the Argentine vote against Russia at the UN Human Rights Council.
Within the framework of the seminar “Politics, Planning and Government, Grill stated that “Argentina should have abstained” to validate Russia’s suspension. “We support those who are against us” and recalled the support of Russia and the countries that accompanied Putin at the UN in defense of the Argentine sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands”, questioned the senator from the Front of All pointing against the management from santiago cafiero and the position of Albertism.
“The government of the United States through its ambassador (Mark Stanley) is proud of Argentina for its condemnation of Russia. Know that the Argentine people feel ashamed. Anti-colonialism is an ethical imperative for those of us who want Sovereign Nations,” he tweeted. Alicia Castroformer Argentine ambassador to Venezuela.
And Solá, who knew how to have a place in Albertism after joining as chancellor, renouncing his presidential candidacy in 2019 (the same as Agustin Rossione that in return could back to cabinet), and used to show postures more aligned with Washington (the massismo line) than with VenezuelaCuba and Russia, appears today in the antipodes.
It is that his “untidy” exit last September, after the letter from the president and the resignation of Wado De Pedro which later motivated the rearming of the national cabinet (in which more Albertists than cristinistas lost their seats paradoxically), damaged the relationship with the president and his entourage.
“The way I received the news, which was a call from cafieroI thought it was not appropriate for a number of reasons and I let the President know,” explained Solá bluntly. Santiago Cafiero, who was leaving his place as Chief of Staff at the time, told him on Whastapp that he had to leave his place to take it himself.
Solá exchanged messages in El Salvador, on a stopover on his trip to Mexico to participate in the Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), closing a negotiation to chair the group after the presidency of Andrés Manuel López Obrador: Alberto Fernandez He had planned to attend the Summit, but the internship with Cristina Kirchner for the renewal of the Cabinet forced him to suspend it.
“I was on a plane in El Salvador. I asked him not to announce the news like this he was not dispossessed in Mexico, but the need to announce the cabinet was very great, and he replied that times were different and that he was very sorry that they were,” Solá revealed, who arrived in Mexico but did not attend the Summit and confined himself in his hotel.
“This was decided at 10 p.m. because they had nowhere to put Cafiero. On the scale, Cafiero himself called him to tell him that he was going to take his place. I don’t even call him the President. Not even the delicacy of waiting for him to come back ”, they trusted near Solá that in his reappearance he made his annoyance clear.
“You talk to the president when he is called. And I didn’t speak again. With Cafiero it was by Whatsapp”, revealed the former foreign minister who added in contrast that Cristina Kirchner “does not play from below, but in view of the people who voted for them and that has its value”. A change of position and side: today he works from an office at the Patria Institute, the cristinista bunker.
And from their environment they add: “Yes Alberto put an official questioned by the majority force there are two options: either it is transitory or it does not care about foreign policy”. They say it in reference to santiago cafiero whom Kirchnerism once again marked this week as one that must definitely leave the cabinet.
The name of Jorge Arguello, current ambassador to the United States and a friend of the president, sounds like a replacement. A change that would not make Kirchnerism very happy but in which Albero Fernández is not willing to give in: Cecilia Nicolini -blessed by her management of vaccines- would appear as a second option.
