This afternoon, the Frente de Todos held a summit at the Casa Rosada, to address

three issues: the march of vaccination

and the arrival of doses, what to do with

the PASO

and how to improve the fight against

price increases

.

Alberto Fernández led the meeting, accompanied by the head of Deputies, Sergio Massa;

the head of the bloc of deputies of the FdT, Máximo Kirchner;

Minister

Wado De Pedro

and Chief of Staff,

Santiago Cafiero

.

The variables that were used for these topics were the following: they spoke about the progress of the vaccination campaign in terms of stock and vaccination logistics.

There,

the President confirmed that the purchase of the Chinese Sinopharm vaccine was closed in 1 million doses, which would arrive in February.

And that to this, is added the arrival of a batch of AstraZeneca for 580 thousand doses in February and another 580 thousand in March.

There was also talk of the vaccination march, which is slow and only records in the country, the number of 106,280 people vaccinated with the first and second doses of the Sputnik V vaccine. There, Alberto recounted details of his talk with Vladimir Putin and said that more vaccines of Russian origin will arrive.

Regarding the STEP, the issue was analyzed, having very vivid the proposal of the governors.

As Ignacio Ortelli told in Clarín, the president of Chaco, Jorge Milton Capitanich, asked to suspend them or, in any case,

run the dates

.

This last option is gaining ground in the Frente de Todos,

even taking a bill from opposition deputies Carla Carrizo and Emiliano Yacobitti

, who are

proposing to

hold the primary elections on the second Sunday in September of the year.

Regarding the issue of

Prices, the concern in the Government is great and they recognize that high inflation "makes noise"

in the management.

In this return from the Tuesday meetings of the FdT leadership (without Cristina Kirchner), there was talk of advancing in implementing tools to advance quickly and that wages do not lose against prices, something that CFK raised in the act of La Plata , last December.

According to two of the participants in the official summit, "the Government and the Frente de Todos show that there are no holidays for the government and that we are facing the main challenges."

Given this,

the axes of "vaccination, unity and economic growth" were revalued

, with inflation generating noise and that it is necessary to accommodate it.

And they once again lashed out at the "I" of the opposition, which would be Inflation, Immunity (for the criticism of vaccination and the Russian vaccine), Impunity (remembering that Sergio Massa already publicly said that there are chances of amnesty and pardon) and Insecurity, a topic that this time was not addressed at the official summit.
