After the tension experienced in the Senate, where Cristina Kirchner turned off the microphone for Esteban Bullrich in the middle of a tough junction with José Mayans, the opposition legislator was concerned about the "weather" in the compound and the attitude of the vice president : "We are breaking bad laws".
In the framework of the debate on the debt restructuring bill under Argentine legislation, which was finally unanimously approved, Mayans questioned Bullrich about his role as former chairman of the Senate Budget and Finance committee.
The former Mauricio Macri minister asked to speak, but after a few seconds Cristina Kirchner asked to cut off his microphone and closed the debate.
"It has nothing to do with Esteban Bullrich or a senator because when you are mentioned you can rectify assertions that are considered wrong and that happened with Mayans," Bullrich began, in dialogue with Radio with you.
"They did not consider me arguing in 30 seconds. We listened to speeches of more than 40 minutes from the current vice president with all due respect. But the most serious thing is the weather, " he added.
The senator for Together for Change considered that "in this climate we are discussing a law such as teleworking, which is fundamental for the near and near future of Argentina."
"However, we discussed it in that tone. So, the law passed without any modification by the Senate. We are taking out bad laws because of that climate, that's the most serious thing," he analyzed.
When asked about Mayans' questions, he pointed out that "there is a climate of hatred and revenge that is permeating other senators and is preventing us from working well."
And he launched: "If the one who directs has rancor, revenge and hatred he can permeate the institution he is directing."
The legislator again pointed to CFK's attitude: " Is the oppositional expression going to be extinguished? Then, we are going to have to find other ways to express ourselves. The Senate cannot work like that. That is the underlying problem."
After asking for more senators to be present at the venue and criticizing the remote working modality to resolve "issues that cannot be resolved in this way", Bullrich pointed out to those who " believe that the majority agrees with you and that it is justifying for everything but that is not a democracy. "
In this line, he stressed that "we must understand that this is not going for everything, it is going with everyone" and that "we must stop thinking that the other is not going to be in the future because that look of elimination of the other in the opinion does wrong . "
