Among the signatories were two governors (that is, there are
21 who chose not to sign
), a judge, some curious names (an Environment trade unionist whose last name is Urine), actors, journalists and former officials and leaders prosecuted or imprisoned for corruption , like Amado Boudou, Milagro Sala or Luis D'Elía, who next to his name put the occupation with which he perceives himself:
teacher
.
It is already known that they were encircled after a "proclamation" of patriotic tint - crossed by Argentine ribbons on the edges of each page - which, without humility, tells President Fernández what he has to do with the IMF and the Paris Club:
not pay the debt
.
It was
something more
than another twist in the thread of the Kirchnerist tightening to the minister Martín Guzmán that has been going on for a month, since Undersecretary Basualdo refused to raise rates and his boss not only could not kick him out but suffered a relentless counterattack K.
In addition to that, it is a public message from Cristina and Kicillof telling Fernández
not to pay anything before the elections
, but without the need to appear directly.
A breath on the neck on request
, with the union weight of the CGT (Héctor Daer), the CTA (Hugo Yasky), CTA of the Argentines (Pablo Micheli) and Truckers (Pablo Moyano).
Fernández took Guzmán on his trip to Europe to give a signal of support but, as usual, instead of turning the turn signal to one side, he put the beacons.
And
the two turns
flashed
at the same time:
while he showed how he held Guzmán, from Paris he sent photos to Kicillof to give him the reason about how empty European cities were due to the confinement that would later come to the AMBA with the harshness that it demanded the Buenos Aires governor.
Kicillof did not deprive himself of making the episode public, telling it the following Saturday on the radio.
He did so in such a tone that listeners could interpret that
the President was reporting to the governor
, and not the other way around.
Kicillof did not put his signature on the "Proclamation" but he is in it through his Minister of Government, Teresa García.
Perhaps that is why the letter omits to say what will happen if Argentina goes into default with the Paris Club: in addition to 2.4 billion dollars of the quota that expires on Monday, compensation
interests
would be added
for another 2,000 million.
And why would this automatic clause of colossal interests that almost double the amount of the unpaid installment be executed?
Due to the conditions of the agreement with the Paris Club signed in 2014 by ... Axel Kicillof.
That is, if Argentina does not pay, as recommended by the group supported by Kicillof, Guzmán will have to face
exorbitant interest rates agreed by Axel himself.
Cristina does not sign the
Proclamation either
, but she is in it with
two personal pens:
those of the deputy Fernanda Vallejos and that of the militant Judith Said, who signs as
"Human Rights Area of the Patria Institute
.
"
The "proclamation" seeks to mark the field to save reserves in the election year, take advantage of the tailwind of soybeans at 600 dollars and put some money in the pockets with reinforced and retroactive plans for the return of Profits.
For that,
a dollar should not come out.
The document was released the day before the virtual meeting that the President had with Angela Merkel yesterday to ask her to help him with the Paris Club, where Germany is the main creditor.
Merkel promised support without knowing that among the signatories of the "proclamation" that asks not to pay is Governor Insfrán,
compared to her
when they denounced him for abuse of power.
"She has five popular terms in Formosa, just like Merkel in Germany,"
the head of the Frente de Todos bench in the Senate, José Mayans
,
defended him.
The national ingenuity is invincible.
