It is worth remembering that last Monday, the Minister of Economy Luis Caputo, together with the Chief of Staff Nicolás Posse, met at the Casa Rosada with the deputy director of the Department of the Western Hemisphere, Luis Cubeddu; the Head of the Mission, Ashvin Ahuja; and the IMF representative in Argentina, Ben Kelmanson.

The mission of the International Monetary Fund has been in Argentina since last Friday and has been holding work meetings, including with the technical teams of the Central Bank and the Ministry of Economy to analyze the accounts.
