Argentina's economy minister dismisses opposition's 2027 chances, touts dollar inflows

Argentina's economy minister, Luis Caputo, ruled out on Tuesday that Kirchnerism could win the 2027 presidential election and, in particular, that the governor of Buenos Aires province, Axel Kicillof, could reach the presidency. Speaking before the Argentine-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (CAMBRAS), the minister also projected that the Central Bank (BCRA) would overshoot the reserve-buying target agreed with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
