One day after the planned eviction in Guernica, the seizure does not seem to exist.

Or not be inhabited

.

The stalls - most of them made of sticks and black trash bags for roofs - are empty.

The referents of the taking are gathered this Wednesday at noon in assembly.

At the back of the property, without access for those who are not part.

And there, as

Clarín

learned

, they would have decided to resist the eviction. 

There is no significant police presence: only the usual mobile, stopped at the intersection of Patagones and Bogado, at the main entrance to the outlet, which has an eviction date for less than 24 hours.

As this newspaper learned, there are families who gave up continuing to occupy the land illegally and the groups of "solidarity embrace" remain, which have already warned that they will resist.

The first indication:

the burning of tires that occurred hours ago

.

When walking through the improvised streets that were delimited in these fields of Guernica, the feeling does not go away:

absolute stillness

.

It contrasts with the image, in case the eviction begins, of Buenos Aires police officers entering a place with a court order to defend private property.

Even

women with their children are missing

.

That they were always the ones who "banked the boxes" while their partners worked.

“This fight was not lost, they are going to find a solution for us.

Here I don't think people leave with nothing.

Those who are not from here may be.

We do not.

I don't think they will come to take us out tomorrow

”, a woman who is with her granddaughter, almost alone, tells this newspaper in this immense area of ​​almost 100 hectares.

Yamila walks through the property with her four children and her husband.

They were in the assembly.

They are from Lomas de Zamora.

She told this chronicler that in the discussion "there are only neighbors, no political party."

And that although the debate continues, the decision has been made to stay on the premises and "resist the eviction."

"We stayed," ratified another group of women who were also returning from the assembly.

Although there were versions that there were groups setting up barricades, the

Clarín

team

did not see them on their tour of the property.

“We just have to be attentive to whether they bring elements to make a barricade or we see important groups of people.

There is no order to extend surveillance.

The eviction, so far, is tomorrow.

We await orders,

”says the superior of the Buenos Aires province who arrived at around 12:30, as a replacement for the only mobile stationed in the place.

The eviction originally ordered for September 23 by the Judge of Guarantees No. 8 of Cañuelas, Martín Rizzo, was postponed to October 1 "during daylight hours and in favorable weather conditions."

In radio statements, the Buenos Aires Minister of Government, Teresa García, affirmed that there are already families who have abandoned the capture and explained that through joint work between the Ministry of Community Development and Justice and Human Rights, an agreement was reached with between 20 and 30% of the families to take them to another property in the municipality of Presidente Perón.

"In those properties the Province is

going to guarantee public services and the delivery of subsidies for construction

. In my opinion, the violent groups remained, burning tires and saying that they are of 'solidarity embrace'," said García, who also said that "the problem is that there are families that are not from the municipality and they have joined now because they

saw the opportunity to relocate

."

According to the official, "the government is clear and is not going to endorse the taking" and pointed out that "the eviction order is in place" and that "delaying it for two days" as stated by the Polo Obrero "is not a solution."
