Adorni denounced an internal plot and Santiago Caputo fears losing control of the SIDE and ARCA
Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni has claimed an internal plot against the government following the release of a private video of him and his family, which has sparked tensions within the ruling coalition.
Manuel Adorni, the Chief of Cabinet, has publicly accused factions within the government of orchestrating an internal coup following the leak of a private video showing him and his family boarding a flight to Punta del Este. He characterized the leak as a deliberate attempt to destabilize the government, which he believes was orchestrated from within the administration. Adorni vowed to launch an internal investigation into the source of the video, asserting that it had been secretly recorded weeks prior to its release.
The situation escalated tensions in the already fraught dynamics among the libertarian factions supporting President Javier Milei, with particular suspicion directed towards Santiago Caputo, a presidential advisor. Supporters of Karina Milei have not hesitated to point fingers at Caputo, implying he might be behind the leaks aimed at undermining Adorni. In a show of solidarity, Adorni plans to appear alongside the President in Córdoba, suggesting that he seeks to reinforce his position within the government despite the controversy.
The implications of this internal strife could be significant for the Milei administration, as trust issues arise among its members. As Adorni and other officials grapple with these allegations, the call for President Milei's intervention highlights the urgency of addressing the rifts within the administration to prevent further destabilization and to maintain a united front against political adversaries.
