After promulgating this Sunday the controversial retirement mobility law in Chapadmalal during the launching of the "Anses Verano" campaign, President Alberto Fernández criticized Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, for the fight for the City's funds.
The first president complained about the attitude of the Buenos Aires head of government when rejecting the appointment of the National Government to negotiate the funds that correspond to the City for the operation of the Police and
said that it "exaggerates", that it generates "unnecessarily a conflict" and that it is an act of "little intellectual honesty" to
pose things as they are.
"They gave funds, through a decree, to a district privileging it with a false argument that was to pay for the security that was transferred to them from the National Government to the City Government. That argument is so false that the Head of Government himself gave press conferences saying that they would not be able to make places or schools because we took those resources from them.
The resources were not for that, but for security,

.
"
The truth is that
(Rodríguez Larreta) is
exaggerating
.
It unnecessarily generates a conflict
where there should not be one. I think it should be generous, because the rest of the provinces are not demanding that it return what it took too much in all these years. Just accept a clean slate, and put things in order from here on, "continued the president.
In addition, he said that he will speak with the head of the Buenos Aires government to "insist that we resolve things as they should."
"Things are not done the way you want, they are done as the law mandates, as the institutions mandate. We really want to give you the resources the City needs to pay for security, because that is how the National Constitution and the called Law Cafiero.
But to do it as the law marks
. Simply, "he sentenced.
On the subject, he also said that "all political content must be taken away because there was never a purpose to hurt anyone, or to ruin Rodríguez Larreta's government or complicate life for the people of Buenos Aires."
"It is simply putting in order something that we all know was done wrong.
It is an act of little intellectual honesty to put it another way,
" he continued.

Fernández assured that this "is not against anyone, nor is it because the PRO, Cambiemos or whatever it is called governs."
"What we have decided is to state that there were resources that, arbitrarily, were ordered by the Macri government in the power of Rodríguez Larreta. Resources that were to the detriment of other provinces. That is not fair and must be corrected.
The provinces had the right to do so. generosity that they do not recriminate them for returning everything that was wrong
. It was badly done from day one and they are not claiming it from them. Only that from now on, let's change. What irony. Let's change, "he concluded about it.
The Minister of the Interior, Wado de Pedro, also went out to the Buenos Aires government at the intersection and invited him back to the Casa Rosada.
In a letter - later reinforced by messages on Twitter - the head of the political portfolio summoned him for tomorrow and left the rest of the week open as "alternative dates" "at the same time and location."
Regarding the recently enacted retirement mobility law, the President also attacked the opposition and the previous government of Mauricio Macri.
"The reality indicates that when they put their own retirement law, they did it in an act that took 90 billion pesos from retirees to give them to the governor of the province of Buenos Aires. From then on, what the retirees did is lose money. So much so that, since that formula existed, pensions fell 20% in real terms, "he defined.
Finally, he said that what they did was replace "a formula that was the one that existed before."
"We are replacing that calculation with one more advantage. In Cristina's years they were adjusted every six months and now every three. What we are going to allow is that the improvements reach their pockets as soon as possible," he concluded.
