This morning the mayor of Providencia, Evelyn Matthei, spoke on Radio Agriculture the latest controversial statements made by ministers of statespecifically the sayings of ministers Giorgio Jackson and Izkia Siches.
On Tuesday night, Minister Jackson during a broadcast on Twitch made a comparison between the current generation and the one “that came before us”, referring to the “scale of values and principles around politics”, while last week, the Minister of the Interior, Izkia Siches, tensed the spirits of the House by saying “It seems that some hit themselves in the head” during the discussion of the renewal of the State of Emergency in the Southern Macrozone.
In this regard, the mayor argued that both situations should be separated, since they corresponded to different things.
“The thing about ‘they hit themselves in the head’ is a saying of little respect in the forminstead heor Minister Jackson, I think that he actually believes that. So that’s a totally different kind of problem, because when you believe that others are morally wrong, then how can you work with them? I think Minister Jackson is much more serious.” express.
This, he added, because “he really believes that they are good, holy, clean, that they are right, and all of us who came before them are corrupt that indeed we always mix politics with business, and we should not be in any kind of position of power, then it is no longer a problem of language, and I think Senator Insulza said it very well, there is nothing to do there, because they are disqualifying you”.
All this, said the mayor, “It only reflects how childish their thinking isbecause with all due respect, we are human beings, we all have falls, we all make mistakes, we all commit sins, it is part of human nature, but that moral superiority, that arrogance… Pride is like the worst sin, so I am concerned that a person who is so important in a coalition is so childish and so naive “he concluded.
Regarding the accusations of interventionism against several mayors before the exit plebiscite in September, the mayor indicated that “what is being done now is a cheek”
“I am glad that an audit has been started in three more communes, but the truth is that we see this every day by the highest authority of the Republic, It is really an act in which the norms, the laws, the correct thing, do not give a damn”he added.
