Overview
- President Javier Milei led the first meeting of the reconfigured cabinet at the Casa Rosada, introducing Manuel Adorni as chief of staff, Diego Santilli as interior minister and Pablo Quirno as foreign minister.
- Adorni and Santilli began acting in their roles and are expected to take their oaths in coming days, with Adorni’s swearing planned for Wednesday before Milei departs for Miami for the America Business Forum.
- The session prioritized a package for extraordinary congressional debate that includes the 2026 Budget, a tax overhaul, labor modernization measures and a new Penal Code, according to Adorni and Santilli.
- The Interior Ministry under Santilli will lead outreach to governors and congressional blocs to secure votes for the reforms, integrating PRO figures into Milei’s governing coalition after weekend resignations.
- Further turnover is expected in December as Patricia Bullrich and Luis Petri prepare to assume congressional seats, while presidential adviser Santiago Caputo retains influence without a formal ministerial post.
