Francos Meets Macri at Saudi Reception as Casa Rosada Downplays Any Rapprochement

No MileiMacri meeting is scheduled, according to both camps.

Overview

  • Guillermo Francos posted a photo from a Saudi embassy reception at the Four Seasons, calling his exchange with Mauricio Macri cordial and highlighting talks with Ambassador Hatem Ghormulla Alghamidi on bilateral cooperation.
  • Sources close to Macri said there has been no formal contact or invitation from the government, and the Casa Rosada characterized the encounter as casual without plans for follow‑up.
  • Macri noted he has not spoken with President Javier Milei for more than a year, yet he reiterated that he remains available to help.
  • In a meeting with PRO candidates, Macri urged lawmakers to protect the government’s reform push in Congress and to avoid backing proposals from kirchnerismo that could destabilize the administration.
  • Campaign teams remain split on bringing Macri closer to La Libertad Avanza, with some officials favoring outreach and others warning his high negative ratings could hurt, as the government seeks broader support after recent setbacks.
