Argentina's PRO party slams Chief of Staff Adorni over transparency concerns

Argentina's PRO party, led by former President Mauricio Macri, has released a sharp statement condemning Chief of Staff Manuel Adorni. The criticism stems from Adorni's shifting accounts regarding allegations of illicit enrichment.

“

There is no possible justification for this.

The PRO party labeled Adorni's actions a "grave offense," citing his initial assertion to the public and Congress that "nothing was hidden," followed by an admission that information had indeed been withheld. The party stressed that such contradictions lack justification, especially during a period when millions of Argentines are making significant efforts to consolidate the country's ongoing changes.

In their statement, the PRO emphasized the importance of "being up to the task" and acting with the transparency demanded by society. They warned against fueling avoidable controversies, unnecessary contradictions, or episodes that erode public trust. The party, an ally of the current libertarian administration, has previously expressed differences with Adorni.

At this point, the most responsible attitude is to protect the change, acting with the transparency that society demands.

Earlier on Thursday, a PRO senator had also called for Adorni's presence in the Senate to report on his management. Martín Goerling, the head of the PRO senators' bloc, noted that the Chief of Staff had not appeared before the Senate for nearly a year, despite constitutional requirements. Adorni subsequently confirmed his intention to appear in July.

“

It has been almost a year since the Senate has received the Chief of Staff. The last report was on June 26, 2025. Since he took office, he has never appeared to account for himself, as required by Article 101 of the Constitution.
