Overview
- Mauricio Macri spoke at the Foro Abeceb on Thursday and publicly endorsed continuing Javier Milei’s economic direction while warning that fiscal stabilization alone will not produce growth.
- Macri said the PRO offered help to the government 'without asking for anything in return' and complained that Milei’s team did not open channels to accept more organic support from his party.
- He argued that investment has not followed the government’s 60‑day fiscal adjustment, saying that foreign and domestic capital still have not arrived to finance production and jobs.
- As a concrete fix, Macri proposed restoring the Mesas de Productividad — forums that bring together businesses, unions, governors and officials — to rebuild trust and coordinate sectoral deals.
- Macri framed his remarks as a political warning ahead of the 2027 elections, saying the right must decide to 'continue or go back' and implying that unresolved alliance tensions with La Libertad Avanza could affect Milei’s re‑election prospects.
