Pablo Quirno, Argentina’s current Finance Secretary, has been appointed as the new Foreign Minister, replacing Gerardo Werthein starting Monday. The appointment comes ahead of Sunday's legislative elections and follows Justice Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona's resignation on Thursday. Quirno, who holds a degree in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania, previously served in the Economy Ministry under Mauricio Macri’s presidency alongside current Economy Minister Luis Caputo. His new role is expected to strengthen the connection between Argentina’s finance and foreign policy. As Finance Secretary, Quirno was involved in negotiations with international banks for support packages and criticized a Chinese bank's dollar purchase as destabilizing.
