Vice President Cristina Kirchner took aim this followingnoon once morest the Buenos Aires government and got into the internal of Together for Change by arguing that the police fencing arranged in his neighborhood is linked to the differences within the opposition coalition. “Resolve your internal issues in another way between the hawks and the doves, but not at the expense of the functioning of democracy,” he stated.
After the president of the PRO, Patricia Bullrich, question the head of the Buenos Aires government, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, for pushing back the police, Cristina opined: “Please, try to show that one is better, that the President of the Pro is better than the Head of Government is better than Macri, it seems barbaric to me but not at the cost of life, blood and security of Argentines. I ask you a favor”.
And he continued: “I ask you, sincerely, the political dispute, wanting to be president, is legitimate. All opposition leaders have the right to want to be a candidate for that political force, but do not do so at the expense of the validity of democracy. Stop spying, stop filming protesters”.
His remarks took place this followingnoon in the framework of a meeting with Human Rights organizations in the Senate, where he added: “Listening to someone who says: ‘when you exercise security you don’t have to be afraid.’ I think there are people who are very violent and have always been violent. I believe that we urgently need to recover the axis, at least those of us who have State responsibilities”.
Along these lines, he questioned Larreta, following the PRO leader, Patricia Bullrich, criticized him. “If the Head of Government is punctured and they tell him that he has no character and the other comes out to cheat him on television, then he sends trucks to my house. Don’t be ridiculous Head of Government, that’s not how authority is shown, believe me. Authority is not shown with the weak, it is shown when you have authority with the powerful.
Cristina Kirchner mentioned her government and that of Néstor Kirchner. “Really regarding the exercise of authority, I’m not saying that I have all the experience, but that’s not what you’re doing. Let her scream, say anything. We have to allow ourselves to dissent, to be at the opposite end of the spectrum but the only thing that cannot be lost is rationality”, raised.
Bullrich criticized this Sunday Larreta for driving back the Buenos Aires police from the surroundings of the house of Cristina Kirchner in Recoleta. She also confessed that the head of government called her to go to the press conference in Parque Patricios, but that she did not go because they were not going to let her talk regarding her.
“I told Larreta, I will go if I speak. I will go if I can put the specific position of what I think is important to propose there to Cristina Kirchner, in front”, reported to the TN channel. “We cannot allow them to advance. In the city of Buenos Aires, Kirchnerism is opposition. That distinction is very important,” he warned. “They question your government,” Bullrich told Larreta.
The statements of the head of the Pro generated discomfort in the Buenos Aires government. Larreta’s chief of staff, Felipe Miguel, said that these statements by Bullrich generated a lot of disappointment. “Argentina needs the unity of the opposition in the face of all these attacks. These statements have a personal interest. They are short-term issues. Prioritize personal interests over the interests of the Republic”, said Miguel, in dialogue with José Del Rio, by LN+. “The police have acted very firmly,” he said.
