The governor of the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, supported the presidential candidate of the Union for the Fatherland (UxP), Sergio Massa and stressed that “today we have a minister of Economy who is going to be president.” Alluding to Together for Change, without naming any candidate, he revived the campaign of fear: “The people of Buenos Aires have to know what awaits them if the right comes.” He said it at the campaign launch of the candidate for mayor of La Plata, Julio Alak, 36 days before the PASO elections on August 13.
Kicillof is another of the pro-government leaders who is aligned behind Massa’s campaign. In recent days, the Unión por la Patria candidate closed the ambassador in Brazil, Daniel Scioli, as an honorary adviser to the Ministry of Economy and the Minister of the Interior, Eduardo “Wado” de Pedro, as campaign manager. He received the blessing of Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and the president of the Buenos Aires Justicialista Party, Máximo Kirchner, called to support him to “defend the beans of the Argentines.” The only dissident within the UxP is the leader of the Frente Patria Grande, Juan Grabois.

Kicillof referred to the fact that “the right comes to threaten the people” and stated that “we see that they have many candidates and only one project: adjustment. And to carry it out they have to repress, kill and violate human rights. Just like Carrió said. Now the right does not come with marketing, they do not even have proposals for the people, they have threats for the workers and for the original peoples. They come to threaten.”
The Buenos Aires president pointed out once morest the opposition candidates: “They are all the same ones who were with Macri. Santilli, Grindetti who accompanies him from his father’s company. They want to convince that they bring different proposals but they are the same. They formed part of the Government of De la Rúa. We are open, but don’t tell me that those who founded the country twice are now coming to rescue it. That the same people who repressed in Plaza de Mayo in 2001, who murdered today, bring new things to the people. we know them. Patricia is Bullrich, Mauricio is Macri and María Eugenia is Vidal”.

Regarding Alak, Kicillof highlighted: “Some say that investing in prisons can be controversial. It is Julio Alak who halved recidivism. It is he who decided to bring the Qunita plan back to Buenos Aires and bring it here. You have to be foolish not to understand that social inclusion is exercised in all areas of government. We have to understand that it is a project in the medium and long term. We came here to give back to the province of Buenos Aires the importance, prominence and resources that were taken from it. We fight to regain the central role of our province. We defend federalism.”
“The need for the Province of Buenos Aires to understand itself as not part of those centralist and unitary porteños but part of the federalism of the sister provinces has never been more current than now. For this reason, I want to thank not only the militancy but also an act of historical understanding. Great militant effort in La Plata. The province of Buenos Aires lacked a very important engine, which is to have once more in the capital, in La Plata, a Peronist government that bets on production, work, inclusion and equality. Let him help carry out the Magdalena Canal to achieve sovereignty, ”he added.

Facing the PASO elections on August 13, the Buenos Aires governor added: “There is no room for doubt or discouragement. There is no comfort. This choice is decisive. Today we have a Minister of Economy who is going to be president. Like this governor back then, when we listened to Macri’s proposals and institutional radicalism. They accused us of running a fear campaign. Macri said that the revolution of joy and zero poverty was coming, that no one was going to lose rights. At that time we revealed that it was not what was going to happen. The society decided to make Macri president and Vidal governor. We fall short with the campaign of fear. Among the many disasters they were up to, they were going to bring the IMF back to Argentina. We might see it.”
“They go through the communication channels that are porteños, centralists and macristas. They parade in a kind of tournaments and competitions to see who says the biggest outrage. They ask to blow up the State and end public works. The people of Buenos Aires have to know what awaits them if the right comes. They come for their rights and working conditions. They come to reduce education and limit popular neighborhoods. They are not going to improve neighborhoods because they have already done so for four years. We live and experience the resounding failure of the Vidal government. As if that were not enough, now, they also say it openly. They are proclaiming these threats with an open face. Out of responsibility we have an obligation to go out to explain and convince this militancy. Never once more to the right and to neoliberalism ”, he sentenced.
