ARGENTINA: Macri rails against Fernández profligacy
President-elect Mauricio Macri formally presented the members of his cabinet team to the press this week on an occasion during which he had firm words for President Cristina Fernández. Not only did Macri accuse Fernández of failing to cooperate with him over the transition period leading up to his taking office on 10 December but he also said he had the distinct impression that she was actively trying to see “how many problems and obstacles” she could create for his government. Macri was referring to the Fernández administration’s rush to push through congress some 80 legislative initiatives, and its decision to ramp up spending.
