Argentine President Alberto Fernandez has reshuffled his Cabinet, looking to draw a line under a bruising week that saw infighting within the governing Peronist Judicialist Party threaten to derail the government coalition.
Late Friday night’s reshuffle, after a tug-of-war between more moderate and other factions within the government, saw new ministers named in the key roles of Cabinet chief, foreign minister and agricultural minister.
