A new day of claims by social organizations was announced for this Tuesday. They announced that cuts and actions were going to be carried out in Neuquén. But on Monday night they reported that there was news, since there was a commitment from the Government to respond to their demands, which is why the measures planned for today were modified. Last week, protests had already been reported in the center of Neuquén.
Cesar Parra, from the Polo Obrero, indicated that there was a Government’s commitment that this Tuesday “the payment of social programs will begin”, Therefore, in a gesture of good will, it was decided to suspend force actions for today. If it is not paid, they maintained that there will be forceful measures on Wednesday.
Initially, cuts were going to be carried out on Avenida Argentina, on the bridges and routes of the province. The measure included blockades in the Highway Bridge, Third Bridge, Avenida Argentina, Route 22 in Plottier and Zapala, in Cutral Co and Plaza Huincul over the refinery. In addition to mobilizations in Chos Malal, Junín de los Andes and San Martin de los Andes.
In a statement they explained that the actions were a claim for the non-compliance of the provincial government in the payment of social programs agreed for Monday, October 9. “This is the fourth promise to pay,” they stated.
«The government’s argument is miserable. They say that due to administrative difficulties they are delayed and that the former signatories of the decrees that enable the payments are those accused of fraud. The problem is political, social and must be resolved urgently,” they had criticized.
Also, it was noted that “if the delays persist, The organizations will promote cuts throughout the province for the next long weekend«.
