The official ceremony was delayed for weeks and ended up being more intimate than the usual military tradition.

He also met with his economic team and put the upcoming paquetazo on hold. A local newspaper reports that Finance Minister Jorge Giordani proposed a currency devaluation and an increase in the subsidized price of gasoline. Both proposals were rejected for now.

There will be changes in the Mision Cadivi, including the end of the infamous folders.
