Martín Redrado, one of the first names who started playing to replace Martín Guzmán, along with Emmanuel Alvarez Agis, Marco Lavagna and Augusto Costa, among others.
Many of these economists politely declined the invitation. And the former president of the Central Bank during the presidency Néstor and then Cristina Kirchner (2004-2010) added a further seasoning: this Sunday morning he informed the inner circle of Alberto Fernández what he needed to accept.
The economist said that before appointing a minister you need laws in agreement with the opposition. “Without tax and monetary laws that have the backing of Congress, there is no point in naming anyone“they said close to Redrado.
“Without that you can’t talk about anything“, believes the former candidate for the position of deputy of the Renewal Front. But he admits it He does not see the government going in this direction.
Redrado led the power station during the first months of Cristina’s first government, with which he had a strong crossroads for using the reserves to pay the debt. The economist was “entrenched” in the monetary entity, without wanting to resign and battled justice.
For a long time, relations between the former official and the former president were strained, but then the rapprochements began until Redrado became one of Cristina’s consulting economists.
