Karina Milei shows support for Adorni with Vaca Muerta visit amid wealth probe

Amid ongoing judicial scrutiny over alleged illicit enrichment, Karina Milei accompanied Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni to Vaca Muerta on April 16, touring key oil sites and joining energy sector events—continuing public backing from the Milei circle following recent probe developments.

On April 16, Karina Milei, secretary general of the Presidency, joined Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni in Neuquén's Vaca Muerta region, a move viewed as political reinforcement amid Prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita's advancing illicit enrichment case. The pair toured Loma Campana, inspecting drilling operations, production facilities, and remote control systems managed from Buenos Aires and Neuquén.

The visit coincided with YPF receiving the Marca País Argentina certificate, presented to President and CEO Horacio Marín and Argentine Investment and Trade Agency head Diego Sucalesca. National and provincial officials, alongside energy executives, attended.

This follows earlier shows of support, including Karina Milei's appearance with Adorni at the Malbrán Institute and President Javier Milei's embrace at the Amcham summit, plus public defenses despite recent judicial steps like witness testimonies and citations in the probe.
