As usual since he won the runoff, future president Javier Milei confirmed new positions in his government this Wednesday through a statement from the Office of the President-Elect. He thus determined that the authorities of Banco Nación will be Daniel Tillard and Darío Wasserman, while Belén Stettler was appointed as the new Secretary of Communication.

“The Office of the President-Elect of the Argentine Republic announces that Messrs. Daniel Tillard and Darío Wasserman will be president and vice president, respectively, of Banco Nación Argentina,” they announced in the press release where they also said that Milei met with members of his Cabinet and with Armando Guibert who, according to what they specified, “was in charge of the reform of the State in the government of Carlos Menem”, the former president whom the libertarian claims.

In a further indication of a pact that was never made public with former governor Juan Schiaretti , Milei appointed Tillard to replace Silvina Batakis. The graduate in Economics served since 2015 and for eight years as president of the Bank of Córdoba, and graduated from the national university of that province. According to how he presents himself on LinkedIn, he has specialized professional training in economics and finance, while he has expertise in management of financial entities, stock exchanges and trust businesses.

This is evidenced in his career path, since before working at Banco de Córdoba he was a director at Banco Provincia for another eight years, during which he coincided with Guillermo Francos, who will occupy the Ministry of the Interior. Likewise, Tillard directed Provincia Bursátil SA, was director of Red Link and manager of Buenos Aires at Banco de Córdoba, among other positions linked to the banking system.

For his part, Wasserman, who was once nominated to preside over the entity, will remain as Tillard's escort. He was president of Garantizar SGR, which belongs to Banco Nación and provides guarantee assistance for SMEs.

Stettler, Communications

“Belén Stettler will be Secretary of Communication,”
they also stated in the press release from the Milei Office. The future official, who participated in the Cabinet meeting today, will occupy an area that anticipates conflicts, because the next president announced a day after winning the runoff that he plans to privatize public media such as National Radio, Public TV and the Agencia Telam . These expressions generated strong rejection from the workers of those sectors of the press.

This appointment ended with a dance of names where Macrista Hernán Lombardi even appeared, who had strong friction with state employees during his time as Media Director. Stettler is a native of Río Gallegos, Santa Cruz, and she would belong to the kidney of Santiago Caputo.

Health​

In addition, during the course of the day, two key positions in the Health area were confirmed. On the one hand, Enrique Rodríguez Chiantore was confirmed as Superintendent of Health Services, the body that administers and controls social works and which is a sector of special interest for union members. Chiantore comes from Pro and was part of Patricia Bullrich's campaign teams. He also appointed Dr. Carlos Alberto Soratti as head of Incucai.
