In different provinces of Argentina supermarkets and hypermarkets have been looted. The videos went viral on social media and Raúl Castellsleader of the Independent Movement for Justice and Dignity (AVOID), justified the gang attacks on businesses, which generated millions in losses in merchandise and facilities.
However, the social leader is not sorry for having incited people to steal, but rather defended these attacks. «Looting and robbery are not the same. Looting is a mass process where food is going to be expropriated because there is nothing. In that overflow of the river there, lumpens and marginals catch on and take everything they find on the way. This was motivated by hunger, the lack of food“, argument.
“There are two elements. The price increases in food on Monday the 14th. Meat increased 100%, vegetables at the same level and dried products somewhat less. The food doubled in value the day after the election. In addition, the Government is not delivering to the community kitchens of schools, churches and picnic areas, nothing for 3 or 4 months. Nothing at all”, protested Raúl Castells in A24.
In this context, he revealed that “one in four people eats in a community place. Not being there and not being able to access food due to the prices ended up being the trigger for this situation. We notify the government that this was going to develop due to the policies that they have been feeding,” explained the social leader after the reproduction of some videos of the incidents.
Raúl Castells’ request to the Government
On the other hand, the official indicated that “on Wednesday the Government communicated and we made 3 proposals. That they reinstate the food, that there is an IFE as in a pandemic, those 3 months of aid and they communicated with us from Social Development, “he acknowledged. Faced with this, the journalist warned him that after compensating him, they could report him and start a case for robbery.
«We are not interested, let them do what they want“, answered Raúl Castells. “We propose that this IFE be for everyone and the Government said only for those with social plans. For the medium and small victims, we asked that they give 10 million to the children and 15 million to the medium and they agreed to 7 million pesos,” the social leader stressed.
