Deputy-elect Francisco de Narváez harshly criticized the cabinet changes announced by the government.

"While Néstor Kirchner is ahead of this administration nothing is going to change. We need real changes," he said.

He also blasted controversial Domestic Trade Secretary Guillermo Moreno, who survived the last cabinet reshuffles: "He represents the mistaken policies of this government. If Moreno quits, changes will begin," he said.

He also demanded to establish inflation goals, to return to the international arena, to the voluntary credit market and to end with imports barriers.
