Alberto Fernandez He doesn’t seem willing to distance himself too much from Venezuelan Chavismo. On Monday, the Argentine government “deeply regretted” and described the incidents in the National Assembly of Caracas as “inadmissible” and the official maneuver to marginalize Juan Guaidó. But on Tuesday he withdrew the credentials of Elisa Trotta, the delegate of Guaidó to whom the former president Mauricio Macri He had recognized a year ago as legal diplomatic representative of Venezuela in Argentina. With this decision, Alberto Fernández considers Nicolás Maduro as the only legitimate president of Venezuela and returns the diplomatic legation in Buenos Aires.
The Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent a letter to Elisa Trotta, a Venezuelan lawyer specializing in human rights and resident in Buenos Aires, with the following text: “I am writing to you for the purpose of informing you that the date of the date is ending its special mission in the Argentine Republic and its functions within the framework of it “.
Just the day before, after Foreign Minister Felipe Solá, on behalf of the Argentine Government, had issued his critical note with the Chavez parliamentary maneuver, Elisa Trotta had been satisfied: “We thank Foreign Minister Felipe Solá for his concern for the facts happened today in Venezuela. Our struggle is to recover democracy through free presidential elections, to end this unprecedented humanitarian crisis. “
The note of the Argentine Government was badly received by the Venezuelan Government. Diosdado Cabello, president of the Chavez National Constituent Assembly and the mainstay of the regime, said Alberto Fernández had said “a guaidiotez” [en realidad Fernández no había dicho nada directamente] He added: “We do not need Argentina or its foreign minister. They will see on which side they are accommodated, whether from the towns or the dragged.”
The decision of Alberto Fernández, unequivocally favorable to Nicolás Maduro and contrary to Juan Guaidó, recognized as interim president for more than fifty governments worldwide (including the Argentine so far), complicates the renegotiation of the debt he needs to undertake The new Peronist president.
The White House has a decisive influence on the International Monetary Fund (IMF), of which the United States is the largest partner, and has already warned that any support from Fernández to Maduro will be taken into account as a negative factor when negotiating. It also complicates the relationship with Brazil, Argentina’s main trading partner. The Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro, is an enemy of the Chavista regime and unconditionally supports Juan Guaidó.
