The Together for Change bloc is
analyzing asking for a sanction for the deputies of the Frente de Todos Eduardo Valdés and Juan Benedicto Vázquez
for having received the vaccine against the coronavirus in a privileged way.
On the one hand, opposition deputy Waldo Wolff requested that they
be expelled
from the lower house, while the head of the PRO bloc, Cristina Ritondo said that they must first make a formal discharge and then decide what type of sanctions to take.
For now, President Alberto Fernández removed Valdés from the entourage that will accompany him on his trip to Mexico.
In the next few days, the Juntos por el Cambio interblock
will decide what disciplinary measure to propose,
although for them to be carried out it should have the consensus of the Frente de Todos bench.
"I believe that we must ask for the expulsion of Eduardo Valdés, then we will see what the bloc as a whole decides. What is more serious? The live sex scene of the Salta deputy Juan Ameri or
a deputy who knowingly Do you take the vaccine from someone who is vulnerable and thereby endangers his life
? "Wolff wondered. Valdés is an operator of Vice President Cristina Kirchner and participated in Operative Puf.
When he was told that Valdés defended himself saying that he was vaccinated to travel to Mexico and that he did not know it was a crime, Wolff replied that
"it is a lie that he did not know
.
"
“I could accept not requesting the removal if Congressman Valdés had come out yesterday to say that he made a mistake and asks for forgiveness.
He said he did not know it was not illegal ... Is he charging me? "Wolff told the data program Data on Radio Milenium.
The president of the interblock, Mario Negri, went further and said that he will request that
Chief of Staff Santiago Cafiero go to the lower house "with the full VIP list to give explanations."
Wolff recalled that a week ago Deputy Carlos Heller from the Frente de Todos "proposed that all deputies get vaccinated because we are essential."
And Wolff responded that from Together for Change “
we are opposed to having a privilege
.
Only the deputies who are within the risk group have to be vaccinated when their turn comes like any neighbor's child ”.
The JxC legislator pointed out that "a week ago
I sent a letter to the president
where I warned him that governors, ministers, militants are being vaccinated but he did nothing."
Wolff presented a bill to modify article 205 of the Penal Code to penalize an official who does not distribute vaccines based on what is established by the competent body and does so for influence peddling and / or profit ”.
The Buenos Aires deputy
called for a cacerolazo of protest for Sunday at 20 o'clock for the vip vaccination
: "Each one knows and takes care of himself because the State does not take care of you, the state chores you the vaccine and gives it to a friend . I proposed to express myself by making noise. "
"It seems to me that it is good and what is good must be done. It is not an organic or space proposal," he concluded.
