President Alberto Fernández asked production Minister Matías Kulfas, one of his closest bishops and one of the members of the economic cabinet, to resign. It was after Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner publicly questioned off-the-record information against her, which would have emerged from her portfolio.
It is very unfair and, above all, very painful that this type of attack is carried out by officials of the Frente de Todos government itself. Worst of all: without giving the face, off, lying and using journalists. With mistakes and successes, I always spoke and acted head-on. Painful. https://t.co/qS5Q9SX3sF — Cristina Kirchner (@CFKArgentina)

“President Alberto Fernández asked Minister Matías Kulfas to resign,” spokeswoman Gabriela Cerruti officially reported this afternoon around 2:30 p.m. Shortly before, a tweet had emerged where the President distanced himself from the off-the-record information that Energía Argentina had reproduced, attributing it to Kulfas, and that in turn cristina Kirchner had reproduced, with harsh criticism against the “officials who speak in off”.
It is ethically reprehensible to speak off to the detriment of another. I have always expressed this publicly.
I do not endorse these procedures and I share the discomfort expressed by @CFKArgentina
