Together for Change on Monday repudiated the judicial decision that decreed the bankruptcy of Correo Argentino SA, a company that is controlled by the firm Socma, of Mauricio Macri's family.

"Kirchnerism is

executing its wishes for revenge,

" they pointed out from the opposition coalition.

In a statement, which bears the signatures of the presidents of each party of the alliance - Patricia Bullrich (for the PRO), Alfredo Cornejo (UCR) and

Maximiliano Ferraro

(Civic Coalition-ARI) - they pointed against

"the persecution of Mauricio Macri" .

And they denounced

"the partisan use"

of the Treasury Attorney's Office by Carlos Zannini.

In addition, they regretted "another signal from Argentine institutions against investment and the rule of law."

"Zannini always wanted to block any agreement and push the company into bankruptcy, with the

political objective

of harming the family of former president Mauricio Macri.

Today he succeeded,

" they added about the former candidate for vice president of Kirchnerism in the 2015 elections .

And they continued pointing out to the judicial bishop of Kirchnerism: "The motivations behind this decision are political and are not based on the law, nor common sense, nor on the duties of a public official who must take care of the patrimony of all Argentines, in instead of using his position to

persecute opponents. "

From JxC they said that "Kirchnerism executes its desire for revenge."

On the other hand, they criticized

"the lack of character" of the

Civil and Commercial

Judge

Marta Cirulli, who decreed the bankruptcy of the postal company, and warned that the decision "harms the interests of the State."

In addition, they warned about the consequences of the ruling, considering that "it

endangers the foundations of

commercial

justice

."

"If a company can be pushed into bankruptcy only by the will of a government,

who will guarantee

to companies that if they do badly they will have fair treatment by the courts?" They asked.

Finally, they left a strong message with the 2021 elections in sight: "Kirchnerism is playing with our State to execute its wishes for revenge.

It is time to tell them enough

. In the November elections we have a chance."

Bankruptcy and reactions

Macri had warned this Sunday about an

advance of Kirchnerism on his children

.

Last Monday at noon, Judge Cirulli finally bankrupted Correo Argentino SA, linked to the former president's family.

It is the last episode in a long history, which had in the middle several proposals to pay off a debt with the State.

When Macri arrived at the Presidency, the company and the State reached an agreement for $ 300 million.

However, it was ruled out by a prosecutor, who considered it "ruinous and abusive."

One of the last attempts at conciliation already occurred with Alberto Fernández in the Casa Rosada.

On that occasion, the firm offered to pay a recognized debt of $ 1 billion.

But

Zannini rejected the proposal

and filed for bankruptcy.

After knowing the judicial decision, Correo Argentino SA got a strong response.

He repeatedly cited Macri's public letter and called the ruling "an injustice."

"Commercial Justice has decreed the bankruptcy of the company, confirming 'the outrages, corruption and revenge' alerted yesterday (for this Sunday)," they remarked.

And they closed harshly: "All for revenge and political interests. One more step

towards Argenzuela."
