Luis Barrionuevo
Barrionuevo appears among the spies in the case that until Friday was under the orbit of Judge Federico Villena. "Those are all stupid. I was not even interested in seeing the photos, there is a confectionery around my house that I do not know if I have gone twice in 30 years and that was where my political meetings were. It is a such stupidity, you send them to spy and ring the bell, it is crude, "shot the unionist.
"When you see that the judge of the case sent in combination with those who manage the AFIP to investigate and now it turns out that they are the ones who pass sentence, you realize that it is a complete blackmail. I lived it, I took a judge on when I went senator for a football game and political decision. I was also tapped on my home phone and the judge who did it was so stupid that he took a piece of paper to the SIDE, and that helped when we started to ask for the impeachment, step down. They are functional judges to shift policy , it has always existed , "said Barrionuevo in dialogue with the" unearthly Sabbath , "radio Miter .
Asked whether former President Macri could end up being detained, Barrionuevo remarked: " I told Mauricio at the time of this, that he was going to end up in jail . There are causes, which are not the issue of eavesdropping that are very serious and that surely will accelerate. Because judges in Argentina accelerate according to the command of the government of the day and if not cajonean you until you go. I think yes, you can get to go to jail . "
And he also maintained that the Vice President of the Nation, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner has the power of decisions: "I do not believe that there is already a double command, I believe that there is already a command with 80% political power and this is what it does that the President determines less and less. What worries more is that in the environment that one walks around, people are talking strongly and they are already preparing for the midterm elections next year. "
On the other hand, he was also critical of the government's quarantine management. "The economic situation is worse than the covid, because we are already very desperate. We have entered many stories of bars, restaurants, hotels and tourism in general. This distresses you a lot, it makes you ill," said the union leader. .
"I see the incapacity that exists in the officials who should have been working, have made a crisis committee, a work plan at least for those who lower their arms and already close. Give it hope, but all that has to come from a job, to see how you can sustain business, "Barrionuevo criticized.
And he added: " They have not given a ball to the directive that the President gave 45 days ago, which received the five chambers. Since then there has been no hope , of meetings."
"At the time I was with Matías Lamens, who is the Minister of Tourism, and there is a money that is more than $ 4 billion to revive tourism from the World Bank and $ 2 billion for neighborhood clubs and it turns out that they are seeing about seven laws and they should have already decreed the tourist emergency and they did not. Beyond our sector, we also see that there is no light in the tunnel. The only thing we see here is the terrorism that exists with the virus and whether or not we fix the debt Barrionuevo highlighted.
After highlighting that in Mar del Plata gastronomy reopened due to union and business pressure, Barrionuevo anticipated that they could march in Buenos Aires. "We have a march scheduled, we will go down the Avenida de Mayo, on the 9th of July with the businessmen, I do not know if on July 20, more than 50% of our union is in the City. We are going to have to march, go out to the street to tell Horacio (Rodríguez Larreta) that it is time for us to learn to live together taking care of ourselves. "
