The emissaries of the IMF met with Alberto Fernández …

With the cruelty that characterizes them when badyzing the situation of countries that stand up, especially when there are billions of dollars in the middle, as agreed with the government of Mauricio Macri, the sent from the International Monetary Fund they explained to the Front candidate of all, Alberto Fernández, and to his main collaborators, that the OSP had accordingly left a "notorious power vacuum" in Argentina and that it was a problem to be solved, which allowed to badyze the possibility of an election progress. It was not clear whether sending the funds that the agency should release next month depended on this way.

Alberto Fernández was accompanied by economists Cecilia Todesca and Guillermo Nielsen, as well as his campaign director, Santiago Cafiero. On the other side of the table, the head of the IMF's Western Hemisphere Department, Alejandro Werner, and the head of the mission, Roberto Cardarelli, did not walk around to portray the panorama that the world has to offer. they saw in the country after the overwhelming result. who threw out the August 11th primary and the meetings they had had. The problem was that as soon as the meeting was a bit advanced on what needed to be done to resolve the crisis, Fernández and his badociates immediately warned him that they could not do anything because, as he said, Former Chief of Staff, a candidate, not even an elected candidate, and has no chance of making a decision.

"We understand what you are raising, but we can not do anything because we are not part of management, we have legitimacy, but we do not have the power," was one of the arguments , to the amazement of the emissaries who have seen sinking any possibility of going ahead in conversations beyond the formal. The first meeting was with departing officials who had little decision-making power, while they were now discussing with those who had received the blessing of elections but lacked official authority. "This must be resolved as soon as possible so that we can work in a specific way," concluded the envoys, who specifically explained that they were on an exploratory mission to resolve the situation.

Faced with this approach, the possibility of advancing the elections has emerged as the only alternative. But they explained that the law states that the election must be made within 60 days before the end of the term. That is to say, they could at most anticipate Sunday, October 13, two weeks before October 27 already established. The other alternative, even heavier, would be that Mauricio Macri resigns from the presidency and one can think of an election in September and the hypothetical hypothesis of the new government in November.

Despite Fernández's institutional explanations of the necessary electoral stages before the elections, the envoys insisted on the need to have an interlocutor. What was unclear at the meeting was whether the "power vacuum" created by the Cardarelli-Werner duo jeopardizes the $ 5.4 billion expected in September. "We did not ask, it did not apply.The issue was not discussed at the meeting, but it was clear that they were worried," they said. summary to the Front of All.
