Larreta rejected Macri and Bullrich’s plan: “I’m against handing over the PRO to Milei”

This Sunday, the former head of the Buenos Aires government, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, made forceful statements, expressing his rejection of the proposed merger of the PRO with La Libertad Avanza, led by President Javier Milei, as well as the co-government initiatives. In an interview with Clarín, he said that he does not agree with “handing over the PRO to Milei” and criticized the position of the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich, who supports the merger with the libertarians. “I’m against handing over the PRO to Milei, I’m against the merger proposals, I’m against co-governance, I don’t agree,” he added. Asked about Bullrich’s role within the party, Rodríguez Larreta stressed that one should not “go against the original values of the PRO, betray them and not honor them,” and that Bullrich “is part of Milei’s government, it is a fact, it is not an opinion. It’s part of this merger initiative with Libertad Avanza that I don’t agree with.” In addition, he defended the constituent values of the PRO, stressing that “the management experience” of the members of various political backgrounds was “valued” and that “it does not support populism, neither left nor right, it has nothing to do with messianic projects, with extreme positions”. Then, he questioned Milei’s rhetoric towards the opposition political leadership, considering that “what used to be 678, which functioned as a channel of aggression in Kirchnerism, today is the President’s Twitter.” “Every day we see it. Here it seems that everyone who had any experience in politics is in a bad way and is attacked and attacked,” he concluded.
