Buenos Aires: Macrismo suffered an unexpected blow on Sunday in his interests and ambitions to remain in power, since in the Primary, Open, Simultaneous and Mandatory (PASO by its Spanish initials), held in Argentina, they were beaten by the formula of Alberto and Cristina Fernández, Radio Habana Cuba publishes.

In a country marked by the neoliberal policies of the current Government of Mauricio Macri, the FF team for the Frente de Todos won in the primaries with 47 percent of the votes before Macri who, despite his election campaign, obtained 32 percent.

The defeat of the businessman who became president occurs in a context in which the protests on the streets of Argentina due to the unemployment, layoffs, poverty and hunger that weigh as ballasts on the back of macrismo, increase.

Despite this situation of anti-popularity of his mandate in front of the working class of the country, Macri aspired to achieve his second term in the face of the PASO, for which the political scene for the presidential candidacy of the country in next October is already known.

For the international analyst Atilio Borón, Fernández's victory "is a catastrophic defeat for the Argentine government", since he confirmed that these results would define what will happen in the presidential elections of October 27.

"The difference of 15 points is absolutely unrecoverable," the expert said.
