The president remained at the Olivos residence. It lasted almost two hours and all the ministers were there, except Foreign Minister Diana Mondino who remains in Italy.
Without the presence of President Javier Milei, who remained at the Olivos residence, a new Cabinet meeting was held this morning from 8:37 in the Eva Perón room of the Casa Rosada with the presence of all the ministers except for Chancellor Diana Mondino who is still in Italy, after the President's first official international tour. It lasted for about two hours. It is the first time since his inauguration that the President has not attended a meeting of this type.
The person who entered the Government House through the esplanade the earliest was the Chief of Staff, Nicolás Posse at 8:02, who led the meeting.
Additionally, the following participate: Vice President Victoria Villarruel; the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei; deputy Martín Menem, who presides over the Chamber of Deputies; the Secretary of Legal and Technical, Javier Herrera Bravo; the president of the Central Bank, Santiago Bausili; the ministers Patricia Bullrich (Security) and Sandra Pettovello (Human Capital), the deputy chief of staff, José Rolandi; and the ministers Mariano Cúneo Libarona (Justice); Luis Petri (Defense); Guillermo Francos (Interior); Luis Caputo (Economy) and Mario Russo (Health); the Secretary of Communication and Press, Eduardo Serenellini, the presidential advisor, Santiago Caputo, and the presidential spokesperson, Manuel Adorni.
The Cabinet had last met on Thursday, February 1, before the president's first international trip, which included visits to Israel, the Vatican and Italy.
There was no official explanation for Milei's absence at the meeting, but while it was taking place on the social network television channel La Nación + and others in which he once again insisted on dollarization. And a few minutes later, after 10:30, he gave an interview to radio La Red.

The meeting took place on the day that the extension of the extraordinary sessions that Milei ordered in Congress ends. It is still unknown what legislative strategy the ruling party will deploy from now on after the failure of the particular treatment of the so-called Omnibus Law. The project that had suffered modifications in the general vote returned to the Commission because the president preferred to withdraw it “rather than having a bad law.”
The extraordinary ones will then culminate without the approval of any of the initiatives that the Executive Branch included when it called them.
