Inkriql Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 This morning, the Buenos Aires government confirmed that they will put fences around Congress to avoid excesses when the agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is debated in the Senate. The decision comes after the violence that broke out last Thursday during the discussion of the project in the Chamber of Deputies. While there were doubts about who gave the order not to place this type of protection in the Legislative Palace on that day, the Minister of City Security, Marcelo D'Alessandro, blamed the ruling party, saying that the Government " requires them” not to put up fences during the demonstrations. "Cristina herself has called on the phone," he said. Facing the discussion in the Upper House of the understanding that the Minister of Economy, Martín Guzmán, outlined with the IMF staff, D'Alessandro indicated: "We are going to create a fence that allows the Police to have a lung so that it can act much faster protecting themselves and also those who are going to exercise the right to claim or petition the authorities. We are going to fence the Congress and deploy the forces so that they act as always, guaranteeing the development of the Congress, which is one of the pillars of democracy”. After the excesses in the vicinity of Congress, which occurred when a march by leftist groups against the IMF was taking place, the Buenos Aires Minister of Security had clarified that there was a request from the Government not to put up a fence. Yesterday, his counterpart from the Nation, Aníbal Fernández, said he did not know who issued that order. Today, D 'Alessandro ratified his sayings and entrusted part of that will to the vice president. “For two years they demanded that we not put up fences both in Congress and in the Casa Rosada, when there are demonstrations. Cristina herself has called on the phone requesting that the fences be removed, ”she indicated. Convinced that the attack on her office was planned, Cristina Kirchner published recordings of the riots yesterday and noted that the City Police had arrived 20 minutes after they began. For his part, the Buenos Aires minister explained why there was this delay in the actions of the force, in charge of taking care of the streets of the Capital. https://www.lanacion.com.ar/politica/votacion-en-el-senado-la-ciudad-confirmo-que-instalara-vallas-en-el-congreso-para-evitar-nuevos-nid15032022/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
