Senator Ernesto Sanz addressed ways the country will shift during the next administration.

Senator Ernesto Sanz spoke about the changes the country could soon undergo. "We’re seeing the end of an era," he said. But it goes beyond a presidential administrations or a model; every 30 years, Argentina has seen major changes, he explained. Now, he said, Argentina needs to experience a cultural shift when it comes to governance and transparency.

He called for progress during the next administration after next year's elections. Argentina needs to strengthen its political parties, since the next government won’t have a majority in Congress, said Sanz. Plus, the next government will face the challenge of social inclusion, as the country has 12 million living under the poverty line.
