Overview
- Javier Milei held the first meeting of his newly constituted cabinet at the Casa Rosada to inaugurate a second phase of government.
- Manuel Adorni was named chief of cabinet and has begun acting in the role, with his formal swearing-in planned before Milei’s upcoming trip to the United States.
- Diego Santilli became interior minister and said his immediate task is negotiating with provincial governors on Budget 2026, alongside labor, tax and penal reforms slated for extraordinary sessions.
- Pablo Quirno participated in his first cabinet meeting as foreign minister, and Santiago Caputo remains Milei’s principal adviser without a formal ministerial portfolio.
- Further changes are expected when Patricia Bullrich and Luis Petri leave to assume congressional seats in December, as Mauricio Macri criticized Adorni’s elevation yet publicly welcomed Santilli’s appointment.
