It’s time for a change in PRO. Shortly after 10 a.m. this morning, the Yellow Party convened its leadership at its headquarters at 412 Calle Valcarce in the San Telmo district and held a deliberative summit under its leadership. Mauricio Macri. The party meeting is profile In that Sunday edition.
The purpose was clear. It is to define the party’s strategy in the face of the new political stage. At that stage, the party needs to declare that “we can no longer be satellites of La Libertad Avanza” and reaffirm its identity in the face of the liberal phenomenon shaking the national stage.
Mauricio Macri meets with the PRO, reveals his relationship with Millais and recognizes the independence of parliament
Authoritarians don’t like this
The practice of professional and critical journalism is a fundamental pillar of democracy. That is why it bothers those who believe that they are the owners of the truth.
Moreover, efforts to stop the bloodshed of the leadership began 15 days ago, with the seven congressmen who echoed Patricia Bullulich, joined by Senator Carmen Álvarez Rivero and Congressman Belén Abico, both from Cordoba, who joined the PRO but went to the LLA.
In this framework, the former president was very specific. He wants to maintain the yellow “identity” and believes there will be no further leaks, with the party’s candidate for head of state expected in 2027, and perhaps for this reason the parliamentary blocs of the Senate, House of Representatives and state assemblies will be maintained.
That tone comes after a bad dinner with the president. Javier Millay This left Macri, who highlighted his differences with liberals in his speech, extremely disappointed.
“The clarity I advocate is a completely liberal vision: liberal in its freedom of expression and respect for institutions. We have never believed in individualism,” he began, without mentioning Millais. “A liberal vision with stronger institutions. Let’s not forget that we are a management party and believe in the details,” he added.
“This reunion is fundamental and aims to make the existence of an anomaly felt by all those who sympathize with us and have liberal ideas,” Macri said.
In summary, the Council of Nations, PRO, has articulated five nodal elements of the roadmap.
1. Maintain the party’s identity without pursuing a new electoral agreement with the LLA. According to people involved in the meeting, merging interparliamentary blocs with Libertarians, whether in the Senate, House of Representatives or local legislatures, was ruled out, with a proposal to “create PRO blocs in all of them.”
2. Preserve libertarian autonomy in all states. This was a red line that the PRO reaffirmed in order to avoid further loss of leadership and assert its position as an entity outside the ruling party.
3. On legislative issues, the party supports the government’s proposed labor and tax reforms, but “adheres to the details.” Even proposed amendments.
4. Regarding the 2026 budget, the PRO stated that this would be accompanied by a request for legislative funding for the joint participation of the City of Buenos Aires. This demand is part of a strategy to legitimize territorial positioning and local capacity.
5. For 2027, the party has activated its search for candidates at the national level and established the goal of building a “liberal alternative” in every constituency. It is not just about being an option for the government, but also about restoring electoral advantage in the medium term.
As for him, Soledad Martinez As vice president of the PRO and Mayor Vicente López, she was one of the main proponents of the PRO maintaining its own bloc. “The aim is to preserve the party’s identity and enable it to become a national option again,” a party official explained. profile.
The decision to maintain its own bloc has special significance at a time when parliament is in flux and agreements between political factions are unstable. The PROs appear to have realized that the dispersion of parliamentarians over the LLA was a danger to its institutional relevance, so they approved of its continuity. Christian Ritondo Stand at the head of a parliamentary bloc. Indeed, Ritondo was sitting at the head of a long table.
In this framework, the 2027 election strategy is positioned as a compass and not just an appendage to the situation. PRO is no longer talking about following in the footsteps of the LLA or joining the libertarian wave, but rather about building its liberal alternative: management, programs, and identity. Those were the words repeated in the Valcarce room: “identity,” “alternative,” and “liberalism.”
The government’s support for reforms is in accordance with the pragmatic logic of avoiding, but not weakening, organized opposition. For example, when it came to the 2026 budget, they asserted that “we will go along with it,” but with the express condition that they review their joint participation in CABA. This double track (conditional support + local demand) will characterize the country’s legislative efforts in the coming months.
At the meeting, they discussed “building a liberal alternative 2027 in every district.” This means that not only local influential figures connected to the national project but also rural and urban areas have their own candidates. In other words, consolidate structures, restart programs, and ensure that PROs do not remain in other countries’ colonies.
