 | | But by now, Kirchner was distancing himself from the charismatic and controversial Memen, who was also the nominal head of the PJ; this was made particuarly apparent with the launch of the "Corriente Peronista", an initative supported by Kirchner to create space within the Movimiento Justicialista to confront the problems facing the country. |
| | Kirchner joined the camp of Memem's chief opponent within the PJ, the governor of the Buenos Aires province (and later president) Eduardo Duhalde. |
| | Kirchner kept the unpopular Minister of the Ecomomy of the Duhalde administration, Roberto Lavagna, who piloted Argentina through the widely hated "corralito" and the painful devaluation, but Lavagna also declared his first priority now was social problems. |
