Milei Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni Resigns Amid Private Jet and Real Estate Probe

Summary
Manuel Adorni resigned Saturday as Argentine President Javier Milei’s cabinet chief, marking the highest-profile departure of Milei’s administration so far.
The exit followed months of failed efforts to contain corruption allegations tied to an ongoing investigation into Adorni’s real estate purchases and luxury private-jet travel.
Investigators are examining how Adorni financed those expenses despite drawing a government salary, deepening pressure on one of Milei’s closest political allies.
The resignation hands Milei a major political setback as his government confronts scrutiny over ethics and internal discipline.
