Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrichaccused the national vice president Christian Ritondo The mass resignations of PRO leaders were followed by calls for a “coup” and suggestions that the breakaway and formation of a new “Pro Libertad” bloc was the result of a move. Mauricio Macri. On the other hand, he asked everyone to walk in the same direction because otherwise “normal people will come back.” A few minutes later, the MLA replied: “As a political scientist, this amazes me.,

In another section of the note, he analyzed the change in the role of Guillermo Francos. He indicated that the former Interior Minister and now Chief of Staff came to accelerate certain processes, such as the Bases Law, among other things.

“The Pro Libertad Bloc is a group of provincial representatives who, faced last week with a situation where they faced a sort of coup by the leaders of the Buenos Aires province, decided to regroup… I think Ritondo was on the subject. They took out a party that had full institutionalization until 2026 and they emptied it,” he said.

“If I have a mandate till 2026 and everybody resigns from me to postpone the elections, it’s called a coup. Because they wanted to throw him out, the legislators united,” he said. Asked if there was interference from Mauricio Macri, he said: “I don’t know.” “It is a matter of the province that must be discussed among the leaders of that province,” he explained.

This information was given in a statement signed on Tuesday afternoon Supported by Florencia Retamoso, Sofia Pomponio, Abigail Gómez, Fernando Campagnoni, Oriana Colugnati and Daniela Reich, and Bullrich’s colleague The mayor of Tres de Febrero, Diego Valenzuela, decided to break the blocks. “We will remain pro and, therefore, we have an obligation to accompany the change. Freedom is not negotiated, it is defended. The change is now and without speculation,” indicated legislators loyal to the official.

This is the counteroffensive that was planned after most of the regional areas of importance in the PRO in Buenos Aires coordinated with Bullrich and his loyalists to vacate power with Reich, the current head of PRO in the province and Valenzuela’s wife, and stay with the party to begin reorientation.

In that sense, the security chief denied that this change caused the disruption of the Pro.it seems childish to meHe said about it. “I am a minister. “I work so that there is change in Argentina every day.”

After that, she rejected the idea that she was joining La Libertad Avanza. In the past few hours, Bullrich was condemned by the Pro after participating in an event with the official leader Sebastián Pareja (Undersecretary of Social-Urban Integration). In addition, the official’s proximity to the government led Ritondo to say: “If Patricia Bullrich wants, let her go and join La Libertad Avanza, no problem,

In a conversation with TN, Bullrich downplayed the act and explained what happened. “A group of militants from Apertura Republicana, a liberal group that has existed since 2020, organized an event, invited me and Sebastián Pareja, with whom we went together to win the elections, who worked together in the government, and what does it go wrong like? Is it wrong for us to unite against those who want to overthrow us?,

,For me the Pro doesn’t break. There is no point in discussing why President Milley’s security minister attended an event with another government official. There is no point in going from there to the scandal. The main thing is that change is coming strongly in Argentina,” he commented.

In another part of the interview, Bullrich referred to the salary crisis that has arisen in the province of Misiones in recent weeks, which has led to complaints to the local police.I talk to the Minister of Mission Security regularly. If the province feels overwhelmed it is our responsibility to act, which is why we have set up a crisis committee”, he clarified about the federal intervention.

However, he criticized the way some agents expressed themselves. “We are working together, and beyond demanding salaries, what they are doing is unacceptable. You can’t climb on a patrol car and shoot in the air, they are not picketers either, because they are more violent. They can no longer belong to the police force, clearly that is what I would do, but it depends on the minister (Marcelo Gabriel, Perez”, he stressed.

Along these lines, he said: “We are in reserve to look after the missionaries and institutions in case security control is lost in the province. That is what the Internal Security Act says. If the minister calls me and tells me that the police have abandoned the police stations, the PFA, the prefecture and the gendarmerie will go to take care of the missionaries.. What they are doing is unacceptable madness.”

On the other hand, he recognized that all provinces have local problems that they must address on their own without the need for intervention from the nation, noting that there are also situations to resolve. “They have to fix their problems, they are fixing problems and they have to do things. All provinces have to realize that they have to change the relationship between public and private. Because if they want to support the big states when they have stability problems, when the country also has problems, they have to adapt to this new reality.

“Patricia, being a political scientist, I am surprised that you do not know the definition of a coup. There was a massive resignation of leaders on the side of the Buenos Aires province because no one felt represented by the man who had assumed the presidency a year earlier. Elections shall be held strictly in accordance with the law“, Ritondo published on his account. X. And he ended his message with a phrase often used by Minister and President Xavier Miley: “Everything, within the law.”
