Facing this year’s elections, different names are beginning to make their intentions of reaching Rivadavia’s seat official. Today, the former senator and auditor general of the Nation Miguel Ángel Pichetto formally launched himself as a candidate and reaffirmed his intention to participate in a great STEP within Together for Change. “I want to be president,” he assured.
In an act at the headquarters of the City Gastronomic Union, Pichetto led the presentation of the federal table of his party.
“I want to be president because I have ideas, a vision of the country, a capitalist outlook and a prepared team. I believe that Argentina has a destiny and can come out of the darkness”, highlighted the man from Río Negro.
In addition, Pichetto referred to his statements regarding the Mapuche community that led to the announcement of a complaint once morest him before the INADI for discrimination.
“The National Indigenous Institute gives land to anyone. The concept of people is collective, something that is in the Constitution. There is no one asking for land individually and we are facing a fragmentation scenario”, he analyzed.
Regarding the complaint, in statements to the press following the event, he stated: «I am going to defend myself in Justice. The Mapuches are not native peoples of the Argentine territory. It is an invading people that came from the Chilean Patagonia. This is a historic debate that I am willing to find with anyone who crosses my path.
With this confirmation, Pichetto joined the list of members of Together for Change, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, Patricia Bullrich, María Eugenia Vidal, Gerardo Morales, Facundo Manes and Elisa Carrió.
«If I am President, the narco is not going to win in Argentina. For that we will create the Federal Agency for the Fight once morest Drug Trafficking, with the best cadres of the FFSS. We will also promote the elimination of drug dealing as a responsibility of the provincial police, “Pichetto evaluated regarding the controversy surrounding the threat once morest Lionel Messi.
And he added: “In addition, we will create specialized federal courts exclusively on this subject. For the confinement of criminals, we will build new maximum security prisons, where the convicted will not have transitory exits nor will they be able to use electronic devices.
