The government announced this in a statement on Monday. Milei signed a decree on Sunday after being sworn in as president in Buenos Aires, Argentine media reported. Accordingly, the number of ministries in the South American country will drop from 18 to nine.
According to the government, the new Cabinet now includes the departments of economy, foreign policy, security, justice, health care, domestic policy, defense, infrastructure and human capital. As a super-ministry, the latter combines the areas of responsibility of the former ministries for education, culture, labor and social development. The former Ministry of Women, Gender and Diversity is now also subordinate to the new Ministry of Human Capital.
The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights will now only be called the Ministry of Justice – “a clear symbolic-political message that remains faithful to the denial discourse about the crimes committed by the dictatorship,” as the newspaper “Page 12” analyzed. Sunday marked forty years since Argentina returned to democracy after the military dictatorship.
The ultra-liberal economist Milei won the elections with eccentric behavior and radical demands for an economic and political turnaround. He announced that he would introduce the US dollar as legal tender, abolish the central bank and many ministries, and drastically cut social spending. He has now softened his tone considerably and postponed or toned down many of his original plans.
