Trial of the Supreme Court: the opposition denounces an impunity plan and accuses Sergio Massa of "playing distracted"

They ask the minister to express his position, given the economic impact of the official offensive against the judges of the highest court.


Deputy Juan Manuel López, president of the Civic Coalition bloc, said that the Minister of Economy,

Sergio Massa, "becomes quite distracted

with respect to what he thinks of the impeachment of the" Supreme Court of Justice.

The legislator who answers to Elisa "Lilita" Carrió is vice president of the Political Judgment Commission.

And he stated that Massa "is not a technical Minister of Economy. He is one who comes from being president of the Chamber of Deputies, who was a candidate for President, who has political ambition. He is also responsible for the future of the country and

 has to give his opinion on the issues that are occurring

," López added this Friday, in statements to Futurock.

It is that the opposition that is referred to in Carrió maintains that Massa does not want to appear publicly supporting the impeachment of the members of the highest judicial instance, but meanwhile

his three deputies accompany the official initiative

against the four judges of the Court.

Shortly after his radio statements, Deputy López insisted on targeting Massa.

"The dollar accumulates a rise of $14 in the week. Impeachment effect on the Court

accompanied by the Minister of Economy and candidate for President of the ruling party. Another success of the Frente de Todos," the legislator from the Civic Coalition posted on his Twitter account. Twitter.

For his part, deputy Mario Negri, head of the bloc of radical deputies, assured that the impeachment of the Court "is serious and inadmissible. We are going to block it in the Chamber of Deputies giving public debate.

We are not going to deal with any other project of law

as long as Kirchnerism continues with this siege of Justice".

It is that the Government sent

27 bills to Congress, to be dealt with in extraordinary sessions

, which included the impeachment of the four judges of the Court, the expansion in the number of its members and the modification in the conformation of the Council of the Judiciary.

In addition, changes in the Budget to enable new items, perhaps with the aim of giving more resources to the city of Buenos Aires, in line with the co-participation ruling that unleashed the Government's offensive against the highest judicial instance.

Minister Massa wants

the opposition to accompany even economic issues,

such as this modification of the Budget.

But also a moratorium for pension debtors, laundering for those who have "non-externalized" funds, the INDEC reform, a project with benefits for agribusiness, a regime for monotributistas in the technology sector and, among others, changes in the Law Prevention and Suppression of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing.

But the opposition refuses to discuss any issue in Congress.

And he seeks to get Massa into the ring

, while the political trial against the members of the Supreme Court of Justice is maintained.

However, the Minister of Economy

continues to give ambiguous signals.

This Thursday he was in the province of Entre Ríos, to announce benefits to agricultural producers, together with the Peronist governor Gustavo Bordet, who is being questioned for having gotten off the official onslaught against the Supreme Court.

"I want to take advantage and ask

my friend Gustavo

for permission ," said Massa, as an introduction to his denial of a possible presidential candidacy.

And he added: "Don't put me in another race, because ours is a race to lower inflation."

The act together with Bordet and the warm words regarding who became a "traitor" for some Kirchnerists,

put the Minister of Economy on slippery ground

, where even Alberto Fernández strained his relationship with the Entre Ríos governor.

Massa's suggestive silence on the impeachment of the Court was also surprising, and the fact that his closest governor, Mariano Arcioni from Chubut, did not accompany the official offensive either.

But at the same time, the facts show that

the three deputies of the Renovation Front 

who make up the Political Trial Commission -and respond to Massa- will accompany the trial against the members of the highest judicial instance.

"The Kirchner majority of the Political Judgment Commission that is advancing against the Supreme Court is led by Leopoldo Moreau.

Sergio Massa has three deputies there, he pretends to be distracted.

He is the Minister of Economy and this has an economic impact," said the vice president of that Commission, Deputy Juan Manuel López.
