The head of the Federal Intelligence Agency (AFI), Agustín Rossi, affirmed this Friday that the designated Minister of Economy, Productive Development, and Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Sergio Massa, “in political terms represents the whole of the Front of All” (FdT) and considered that his arrival at the national cabinet expresses “the strength and cohesion” of the ruling coalition.
“Sergio represents the FdT as a whole in political terms. After the resignation of (former Economy Minister Martín) Guzmán there began to be a dialogue between Alberto Fernández and (vice president) Cristina Fernández de Kirchner that led to the political strength we have today” , Rossi pointed out in statements to the online radio FutuRöck.
“The government has a huge number of challenges to normalize the economy and start a stage of economic growth with even social”
In that sense, Rossi maintained that this change in the Cabinet points to the “strength and cohesion” of the FDT having a “more eloquent expression.”
“We have to resolve this situation and the best way is with strong strength and political presence and that is expressed with Massa in the Cabinet,” he stressed.
rossi He also asked “to be prudent at a time of such exchange sensitivity” and wait for Massa “to designate his team and the measures to be taken are announced.”
In this framework, Rossi maintained that no one in the coalition “let alone Alberto Fernández or Cristina Fernández de Kirchner” is making the decisions or thinking “in an electoral key.”
“In situations of crisis or tension these things can happen. You have to adapt even if there are things that can hurt from a personal point of view”
“The government has a huge number of challenges to normalize the economy and start a stage of economic and even social growth. Nobody is thinking about 2023, but about how to strengthen management,” he stated.
Finally, Rossi explained that the outgoing Minister of Production, Daniel Scioli, and of Economy, Silvina Batakis, “responded to this situation with the commitment of those who have a collective view.”
“In situations of crisis or tension these things can happen. You have to adapt, even if there are things that can hurt from a personal point of view. It was not a funny situation for me either when the President said that I had to leave the government as Minister of Defense However, I understood it and made myself available. Those of us who have years of militancy know that these things can happen, “said Agustín Rossi.
