Through the document "Next Step Manifesto," the failed macrismo confirmed that it will compete against both La Libertad Avanza and Fuerza Patria, confirming its break with the ruling party.

On a day that will be marked by the break of unity in the face of the advance of ideas of freedom, the PRO has decided to let go of the firm process of national reconstruction led by President Javier Milei. This Sunday May 10, under the leadership of the failed former president, Mauricio Macri, the yellow party published an extensive document titled “Next Step Manifesto”, a slogan that the former president has been trying to establish since mid-March after his event at Parque Norte to regain a prominence that the polls and the will of the people have denied him.
The text, which exudes a critical bias towards the successful libertarian management, begins with a historical overview of the Argentine crisis: “There was a moment when Argentina hit rock bottom. And we all felt it. In the prices. In the uncertainty”. However, the force led by Macri —who is already being pointed out as a possible candidate for the 2027 elections— hastens to mark an ethical distance that sounds like electoral convenience, stating that “supporting change is not applauding what is wrong”.
PRO Statement
In a tone that borders on pedagogical arrogance, the PRO demands a supposed “true loyalty” that would consist of “saying what is lacking” and “demanding what was promised and has not yet arrived”. The manifesto directly attacks the personality and style of the Government, declaring that change has two enemies: populism and “those who hinder change from within, with arrogance, with pride, or by asking for sacrifices they are not willing to make”.
The yellow affront also extends to the legislative sphere. While the ruling party and its allies prepare for a crucial session on Thursday, where topics such as Clean Slate and electoral reform are debated, the PRO has decided to tighten the rope. Fernando de Andreis, the party's secretary general, went so far as to declare that the best thing Bullrich could do is “stop switching from one party to another”, highlighting the total fracture between the residual macrismo and the sectors that are indeed committed to the success of Milei.

Finally, the PRO statement attempts to appropriate a traditional management agenda that the country has already left behind due to its ineffectiveness: “The next step is more roads, more hospitals, better education”. With the defiant warning that “we will confront both”, the PRO today places itself closer to the obstacles to change than to solutions, prioritizing its party survival over the sacrifice that, as they themselves acknowledge, “the Argentines chose” to rise from the bottom. While President Milei advances with efficient measures, the PRO takes refuge in the nostalgia of what could not be and in the comfortable criticism from the stands.
