Sergio Massa will extend its return to the public arena at least until the month of August. It is the new date chosen for the presentation of his memoirs, which will be called “Wanting a Country”, with which he will break a long self-imposed silence since the defeat in the ballotage versus Javier Milei. She tries to position herself again as a protagonist in the reordering of the peronism.

Massa and his advisors made the decision in recent days during a meeting at the Avenida Libertador offices, where it was agreed not to rush the event that had its initial date in March and that the renewal leader has been postponing since then.
The final date will depend on the political dynamics of the coming weeks, when the processing of the omnibus law passes in Congress, a pivotal moment for the Milei management. The President still has considerable support among the electorate, according to the Renovador Front camp.
Contact with governors and CGT
Meanwhile, the former Minister of Economy multiplies his underground contacts with the Peronist leadership, which includes governors and the leadership of the CGT. With all his interlocutors he shares diagnoses about the progress of the economy and the impact of the libertarian plan. The legislators of the Unión por la Patria (UP) blocs are presented with reports prepared by their technical teams on economic and fiscal issues.
Massa maintains a fluid dialogue with the Buenos Aires governor, Axel Kicillofand with the former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, whose troops are in tension today. The former minister is in charge of taking care of his place in the middle of the intern and asks his people to stay out of the intersections that have multiplied in recent days between La Cámpora and the president’s small table.
He timing by Sergio Massa
He timing exact to return to the ring is a topic that worries Massa and on which he works with a team of advisors that make up former officials of his management in the Ministry of Economy, historical political sides and the Catalan consultant Antoni Gutiérrez Rubí. Although the Tigrense was seen in public on some occasions, such as at the congress for the renewal of authorities of the Frente Renovador (FR) and in the streets on the day of the federal university march, he has not yet broken his silence.
Massa and his followers believe that it would be a mistake to appear in this context repeating the old warnings he made in the campaign about the impact that Milei’s policies would have on the middle sectors and production: a kind of “I warned you.” “It would be a mistake. Some of Milei’s voters may feel disappointed, but it is like telling someone who got married six months ago that his partner is cheating on him,” they often repeat on the first floor of the Libertador offices.
For this reason, Massa has been postponing the presentation of the book that Planeta will publish and on which he worked with the writer Juan José Becerra. Now, at his side they rule out it reaching bookstores before August.
The text will cover his period as Minister of Economy, from his arrival to replace Silvina Batakis, until his last days after the defeat with Milei. Massismo promises that it will focus on its link with the IMF, the countryside and businessmen.
“More than anything it will tell the day to day, all the details of the balance and the discussions in the Government coalition and also some anecdotes of the businessmen who proclaim freedom, but ask for perks from the State,” massist sources anticipated.
