Horacio Rodriguez Larreta He answered President Alberto Fernández today who, in an act in Lomas de Zamora, referred this Monday to the role of the presidential candidate of Together for Change as PAMI controller in the Alianza government and said: “Let’s not hand over power to those who ran PAMI when [René] Favaloro committed suicide”.
Before this sentence, larretain an interview with Alejandro Fantino in Nerves, He said that “what happened to the President was bullshit” and assured: “The fact that he links my time at PAMI with the death of Favaloro seems to me like a scoundrel.”
Then, he stressed: “You cannot say anything to win the elections. The Argentina of aggression and violence is over. Favaloro is a hero for Argentina. A loss to our science. Obviously that invention is a scoundrel.”
Asked if he would make a complaint to the President, he said: “No. It’s such a ridiculous scoundrel… there are limits, you can’t do anything. It’s a guach. It makes you angry The President’s thing was a goof.”
Today Fernández led an act for the Day of the Workers of Recovered Companies in Lomas de Zamora. In his message, he targeted the opposition presidential candidates without naming them, Larreta, Patricia Bullrich and Javier Miley.
“Please, let’s not hand over power to those who took 13% of the income from retirees, to those who managed the PAMI when [René] Favaloro committed suicide. Let’s not hand over power to the irresponsible man who talks about freedom and changing the system and he is the greatest defender of the unequal system in which we live”, he expressed.
In December 1999, under the presidency of Fernando de la Rúa, Larreta was appointed controller of PAMI, an intervention that was tripartite since he exercised it together with two other officials (together with the then Vice Minister of Social Development Cecilia Felgueras and the health doctor Angel Tonietto for FREPASO), a position he resigned in December 2000. After that, the three were charged in court for alleged fraud in the purchase of medicines for social work.
René Favaloro took his own life on July 29, 2000, although he left letters expressing his concerns, his relatives knew that the main one was the debt that social works granted him, especially PAMI and IOMA, to his institution, the Favaloro Foundation for the Teaching and Medical Research.
After giving his opinion on the statements of Alberto Fernández, Larreta spoke about his government plans in case he reaches the presidential race and is elected to occupy the Rivadavia chair.
Asked about the cuts he would make in the state apparatus, he explained: “We are studying it. It would have less than half the ministries there are today. Put it, nine, ten or eleven. less than half today”.
On the other hand, regarding whether he would add secretaries or ministries, he said: “I don’t think that the importance you give to an issue in government depends on the hierarchy of those responsible. I am results. The important thing here is to lower crime, not what the Ministry of Security is called”.
Regarding her statements regarding what she would do with the Women’s Ministry, she said: “There has to be a women’s government because otherwise it seems that only one ministry deals with women. The whole government has to take care of women.”
On the other hand, he stressed: “I am going to be the first president of Argentina to be an economist, which is already a given. It is one thing to understand, to know a subject and another to try to get into the microdetail. I will be the first economist president with the economy being the main problem”.
Regarding the measures he would take, he preferred to point out: “It is utopian to think that we are going to continue living spending much more than what we have. The only way out is to lower inflation and we are going to lower inflation when we reach a zero deficit. I will not broadcast at the end of the first year. I am going to have zero deficit, I am not going to issue and I am going to guarantee the independence of the Central Bank so that the government is not going to ask for money”.
Regarding the country’s relationship with the International Monetary Fund, he pointed out that “in order to renegotiate well, under favorable conditions, first we Argentines have to do our homework” and stressed: “We have to show a clear and forceful change. What we cannot always look for blame and responsibility in others. Enough, let’s take over.”
Regarding the problem of retirement, he said: “What kills retirees is that they start with a retirement at the beginning of the month and when they reach the end they earn much less. And the only way out is to reach a zero deficit, but that is not enough, you have to export more”.
In a more relaxed moment of the talk and when asked by Fantino about where he will live if he is elected by the Argentines, he replied: “When I am president, on December 10, I understand that I have to live in Olivos because the place was a donation for be used as the residence of the president. If you don’t use it, it goes back to the family that donated it. I think legally it is. I would prefer to live at home, lead a normal life, go for a run, go to the corner bar for coffee”.
Larreta explained that this would be her wish since she usually “walks the street” and noted: “I also don’t know what the custody issue is like and it worries me. Today I don’t have custody, what I have is a car driver who is a police officer. And the reality is that I never had a problem”.
In addition, he said that he would like to maintain his routine, such as picking up his daughter from school. “I don’t know if there is any protocol, any law that forces you to have custody. I don’t want to change my quality of life. I go with my friends to the field. Contact with people is invaluable to me, ”she said.
