Gabriel Solano, presidential candidate for the Partido Obrero – FITU, came to Córdoba to present his book Why democracy failed and in this context, he made a presentation at the Government House, together with the local leaders and pre-candidates for governor and vice, Soledad Díaz and Emanuel Berardo, to reject “the criminalization advance once morest the social protest of the Schiaretti government.”
“The repressive turn that the Schiaretti government has taken in a context of growing struggles in the province is alarming. The recent ruling by Judge Pérez Fernández and the threat of imminent charges once morest leaders of the piquetero organizations, including our comrade Emanuel Berardo from the Polo Obrero, is a leap in the repressive policy to impose the adjustment”, he warned.
“At the same time, it is aberrational that the Legislature intends to arrogate powers to limit the right to social protest, ignoring rights enshrined in the National Constitution and international treaties. The joint action of the Justice and the Legislature responds to a repressive orientation imparted from the political power, that is why we take this presentation to the Government House, to demand the cessation of the attack on democratic freedoms that is only comparable with a dictatorial regime ” Solano assured.
For the leader of the Left, “it is clear that the stance assumed by Schiaretti is part of a right-wing electoral race in which all the capitalist parties are participating, because the adjustment that the IMF demands and that all of them intend to unload on the backs of the people it can only be imposed with repression”.
“In the same sense, Morales in Jujuy and Suárez in Mendoza wanted to advance in the imprisonment of social leaders and obtained a greater popular mobilization in repudiation in response. That is the perspective that opens up in Córdoba to face such an attack on those who fight, ”he described.

The last March 8 and 24 were massive in Córdoba and the country. The discrimination once morest the piquetero movement seeks to isolate the struggles once morest adjustment and pave the way for a repressive state. We call on all sectors to reject this advanced persecution, violation of human rights with popular mobilization ”, he assured.
