Amid the deep internal crisis worsened by the historic defeat of PRO in the City's legislative elections on Sunday, former President Mauricio Macri chose to board a private plane heading to Europe to fulfill commitments that, according to him, he had with the FIFA Foundation.
The party leader himself confirmed the trip in the only interview he gave after the poor results obtained by his candidate, Silvia Lospennato, in the elections for Buenos Aires legislators. The City's ruling coalition not only reached 16%, far below the 30% achieved by Javier Milei's candidate, Manuel Adorni, but also lost in all 15 Communes.
Around 11:30 PM on Sunday, Macri boarded a private Dassault Falcon 900EX plane, with registration LV-GQK. He departed from the Metropolitan Aeropark accompanied by his wife Juliana Awada, energy sector businessman Alejandro Macfarlane, and his partner Clara Echevarrieta Gowland.
According to sources in the air transport sector, the aircraft made a technical stop at Espargos airport in Cape Verde before continuing its journey to Madrid. The passengers traveled accompanied by three crew members on this exclusive flight.
