When it converges, the MPN moves,” said a senior party official this week regarding the large presence of leaders that was present on Wednesday at the event led by Sergio Massa in Plottier. There is insistence on taking off explicit support from Governor Omar Gutiérrez for the Unión por la Patria candidate, but they admit that the decision that Sandro Badilla, The candidate who is in the category of deputies, participates in the mobilization is “a leg of the MPN’s strategy for this election.” Others will soon be known.
The candidate even participated in the private dinner with Massa at a restaurant in Centenario, which was attended by only a handful of provincial officials. among them Gutiérrez, the elected governor Rolando Figueroa and the mayor Mariano Gaido. The party has a “difficult” election ahead of it and found reciprocal convenience in being in tune with the presidential candidate.
At the event that took place in Olivia there was a large presence of mayors, some more enthusiastic than others. The most played was the one from the capital, who was encouraged to go on stage at his own risk, while several suggested that he not go. “In life one cannot speculate,” Gaido justified regarding his decision to openly support Massa.
The mayor was first invited by the Minister of Public Works of the Nation, Gabriel Katopodis, with whom he has a good relationship. He was asked to bring his own people and he complied: several of his municipal officials were on the premises.
Massa himself also insisted on Tuesday night, during the dinner they shared at the end of the official agenda. “I want you to go up with me,” the Tigrense asked and Gaido also complied. On Wednesday they arrived together in the van that left them meters from the stage and climbed up with the entourage.
Local PJ representatives such as Darío Martínez and Pablo Todero, the candidate for deputy of Unión por la Patria, did not have the same luck. who did not pass the invitation filter.
The multifaceted armed man who accompanied Massa sought to show one of the candidate’s main preachings in recent weeks: a government of national unity broader than the coalition that proposes him as president. Add other parties, add other sectors, think regarding ten state policies and stick to them regardless of where each one comes from, according to what he said this week in the province.
It is very similar to what Figueroa, a friend and ally, proposed in the agenda that the Minister of Economy deployed this week in Neuquén. Fun fact: what was probably the largest campaign event called by a Peronist candidate in the province was precisely the one that dispensed with the party structure to organize it. Perhaps the MPN, with its multiple divisions, from internal to union, continues to be its main exponent.
What Massa left for the provincial government, in his role as minister, was financing for works and a Contribution from the National Treasury (ATN) of 600 million pesos that Gutiérrez said he would distribute with the municipalities. Also a disbursement from Anses to cover part of the pension deficit of the Neuquén Social Security Institute (ISSN), which Massa promised to defend as if it were just another emepenista.
His ministry also passed the authorizations he needs. Neuquén to go out and take on the debt of up to 150 million dollars that the Legislature authorized last month. There is confidence in the Gutiérrez government to come out with that placement in the week of the 9th to the 12th to “stock up” the dollars before the presidential elections.
That and the presentation of the 2024 budget is what will keep the Gutiérrez government busy in the next two weeks. But no mention of the scam with social plans for which this week one of his former ministers was accused of being the leader of the gang that kept the money of the poorest.
