The head of the Buenos Aires Government, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, today rejected the Government’s intention to expand the Supreme Court. “It is an advance on the Judiciary”, considered the president of the city of Buenos Aires. In turn, he spoke about President Alberto Fernández’s criticism of Mauricio Macri and the management of Cambiemos between 2015 and 2019.
“The President said that he was going to unite the Argentines and he does the opposite, he deepens the crack”, he questioned.
Accompanied by the Minister of Education of CABA, Soledad Acuña, Rodríguez Larreta presented the results of educational evaluations, where students had a sharp drop in text comprehension after the pandemicand the plan to recover learning.
Regarding the possibility of a modification of the current composition of the Supreme Court (today will be one of the axes to be discussed in a meeting between the President and a group of Peronist and provincial party governors), the referent of Together for Change included it in “another attempt” by the Government to advance on Justice.
“They already tried it with the judicial reform, the attempt to change the attorney’s law, to advance on the Council of the Magistracy”, he recalled, adding: “All attempts that failed thanks to the unity of Together for Change, we were, we are and we will be more united than ever for everything, but above all to stop this type of attack by the Government. I do not agree with that”.
On the other hand, and consulted by Alberto Fernández’s latest public statements, in which he came to name “white collar thieves” to the leaders who participated in the Cambiemos government, Larreta affirmed: “Argentina needs the opposite, a president who, faced with the problems that he has not been able to solve, inflation, poverty, insecurity, before that, unity is needed and not crack, and the President is going in the opposite direction to what I think is needed”.
“Keep fighting, accusing the one who was before, that leads to nothing. It is the history of Argentina in the last 70 years and that is how we are. Deepening this path we are going to continue deepening the problems”, added the Buenos Aires president.
Last Tuesday, in an act in the town of Cañuelas together with the governor Axel Kicillofthe president of the Chamber of Deputies, Serge Massa and the Minister of Public Works, Gabriel Katopodis, Alberto Fernández delivered a speech with an electoral tone and pointed against the figure of Mauricio Macri.
“I’m hoping that sometime a judge will call those white collar thieves and ask them for explanations for the debt they took; that they explain the wind farms, the Post Office scam, the toll scam… I am hoping that one day Justice will dignify itself and call the white-collar thieves, the powerful, to account,” he said.
A day later, he repeated the concepts. It was during an event organized at the SMATA headquarters. There, the President stated: “we are facing guys who do not stop saying barbarities, barbaric, forgetting what they did.” And he again questioned that the leaders of Cambiemos “they are teaching morality” by the media.
“He is out of his mind, dislocated”. That was Macri’s reply to Alberto Fernández’s diatribes against him. It was in an interview with Rgoodbye from the sun From Uruguay.
“Do you want to hear the last thing Alberto Fernández said about you? the journalists of the oriental radio asked him. “No, it’s not necessary. I read it a while ago and he’s out of his mind. He is dislocated, ”replied Macri. But do you know what he told her?insisted the Uruguayan journalists. “White glove thief… all those things, it’s nonsense”Macri insisted and completed: “Speechless, he’s out of his mind.”
Last Tuesday, Macri also gave an interview to the newspaper The Country of Uruguay and pointed against the current vice president of the Nation when criticizing the President. “Cristina Kirchner invented this government with someone who had neither her own vote nor any leadership,” she commented. “Debt was never taken at the speed that Alberto Fernández’s is taking,” emphasized.
