A New Chapter in Milei's Administration

President Javier Milei has reconfigured his cabinet and presented his legislative agenda for the coming months, marking a new direction with the appointment of Diego Santilli as Argentina's new Cabinet Chief (a role similar to a Prime Minister, coordinating the executive branch).

Changes in the Cabinet Chief Office

On June 30, 2026, at 5:30 PM in the Salón Blanco of the Casa Rosada (the seat of the Argentine government in Buenos Aires), Diego Santilli was sworn in as the new Cabinet Chief. He replaces Manuel Adorni, who resigned on June 27, 2026, following a wealth scandal involving a 775% increase in his personal assets. The ceremony was attended by 14 allied provincial governors, demonstrating strong regional political support.

The Government's Legislative Agenda

Milei gathered legislators from his coalition, La Libertad Avanza, to announce the action pillars that will guide their work in the National Congress. The agenda includes:

• Modification of the Central Bank's Organic Charter (BCRA): The goal is to consolidate autonomy and responsible monetary policy management.
• Political Reform: This pushes for the elimination of PASO (Open, Simultaneous, and Mandatory Primaries, a unique Argentine system where all parties hold primaries on the same day), the implementation of the 'Ficha Limpia' (Clean Record law, which prevents candidates with certain criminal convictions from running), and the deregulation of campaign financing.
• Changes to Fiscal Innocence: Expansion of the Simplified Affidavit Regime, a type of tax amnesty.

Karina Milei's Strategic Role

The president's sister, Karina Milei, presented her work team that will assist in strategic management. This team is composed of Ignacio Devitt (Secretary of Strategic Affairs), Fabián Fernández (Secretary of Communication), Eduardo Menem (Undersecretary of Institutional Management), and Ariel Ferrentino (Communication Advisor).

Encouraging Economic Context

The government's strategy focuses on highlighting the economic achievements reached during the first half of the year. Among the most prominent data are:

These numbers reflect growing stability and austere management of public finances, fundamental pillars of the official discourse looking ahead to the 2027 presidential elections.
