In the meantime, Río Negro will vote this Sunday the 16th to renew its provincial authorities and also those of some municipalities and development commissions.
Yesterday, Unter raised the ante in his dispute with the provincial government and presented a argued defense against the summary that the Rio Negro Ministry of Labor initiated for ignoring the mandatory conciliation, issued last month in the midst of the wave of strikes carried out by teachers throughout the province.
