Former Argentine President Mauricio Macri said on Sunday that he will not be a presidential candidate in the country's October general elections, as the opposition coalition moves to confirm its candidates.
The center-right Macri's decision to opt out opens the door wider for other candidates of the opposition coalition "Together for Change," considered the front-runner against the incumbent Peronist-led leftist party of President Alberto Fernandez.
"I will not be a candidate in the next election," Macri said in a video posted on social media on Sunday. Although Macri had previously suggested he would not run for the October elections, other opposition members speculated he would still announce his candidacy.
