The national government began to distribute a text among the governors and another among all the mayors of the country for them to sign and thus show their support for the debt restructuring proposal presented by the Minister of Economy, Martín Guzmán, two years ago. weeks.
The idea of the Casa Rosada is to get the signature of political references from all political sectors and not only from the ruling party , to show a united front before creditors. Sources of Together for Change, the main opposition force, announced that they will request modifications to the text that the Government wants to publish.
The statement sent by the Ministry of the Interior that Eduardo Wado De Pedro leads to the governors begins as follows:
"The governors of the Argentine provinces belonging to different spaces of political thought of the Argentine Republic support the proposal for the restructuring of the public debt formulated by the President of the Republic Dr. Alberto Fernández and his Minister of Economy Dr. Martín Guzmán before the creditors The Argentine proposal is compatible with the country's ability to pay and confirms the firm commitment of the political system to meet the objective of achieving a sustainable economic model based on production, employment and exports. "
In a message addressed to holders of debt securities, the text says that "external creditors must assume that they took risks at an interest rate incompatible with a certain prospect of payment by the country."
The document also contains an open criticism of the Mauricio Macri government, which is the section that made the most noise among opposition leaders : "The proportional increase in debt in foreign currency with respect to GDP in the period 2015-2019, the agreement with the IMF as a substitute strategy for access to the international financial market based on unfulfilled conditionalities, the incremental participation of debt interest services with respect to the annual public budget, the lack of growth in the economy, and the overflow of indicators Adverse social issues point to the limits and constraints we have today. "
There he also says that the intention of the signatories is "to build a great political, economic and social consensus that allows us to close with the disagreements of the past to achieve a United Argentina based on state policies that last for future generations," one of the ideas promoted by President Alberto Fernández in his speeches since he took office.
The text intended for the mayors recovers the tone of the notices of the Front of All during the last electoral campaign. "We, the Intendants of the Argentine Republic, those of us who lead the collective sentiment of our neighbors, want to put production, employment and exports back on their feet. We want to put Argentina on its feet, responsibly but defending the interests of the Nation and our homeland. We want to recover monetary sovereignty. We want to feel that another United Argentina is possible, with less debt, with more work and education, with more health and above all, with the same dreams of recovering the dignity of wages. "
