The announcement of Lanari's exit coincides with the official start of Adriรกn Ravier's tenure as the new Presidential Spokesperson. Ravier, a deputy, was appointed to replace Adorni in that role. Ravier met with Adorni at the Casa Rosada on Monday to finalize the details of his integration into the government. His position could carry ministerial rank, requiring a formal swearing-in ceremony, or that of a secretary reporting to the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei.

President Milei personally informed Ravier of his appointment. Ravier expressed his gratitude for the trust placed in him and stated his commitment to communicating the government's achievements and addressing public queries during Argentina's ongoing "transformation process." The government indicated that the Presidential Spokesperson's office will focus on disseminating information about key economic milestones achieved during this transformative period, aligning with positive macroeconomic indicators.

My gratitude to President Javier Milei for the trust to grant me this new function. I will be taking office next week and will try to contribute a grain of sand to communicate the Government's achievements and provide answers to the doubts that may arise in this process of transformation towards a new Argentina.
