Overview
- Economy Minister Luis Caputo confirmed González’s resignation and publicly thanked him for his work in a social-media post.
- Reports citing people close to González say he left for personal reasons and intends to return to the private sector.
- The Ministry of Economy said key deputies, including María Tettamanti and Luis Lucero, will remain in place and the RIGI team will continue its work.
- González, a former YPF CEO, had a technical, largely nonpartisan profile and became an influential figure in shaping the administration’s energy and mining approach.
- The departure adds to turnover within the economic team and could raise the profile of other secretariat officials while the government seeks to reassure investors about project continuity.
