2023-02-27T21:52:21.115Z


From Evita, Somos Barrios de Pie and UTEP refused to mobilize on Wednesday to accompany the President's speech before the Legislative Assembly.


Despite the fact that in some offices of the Casa Rosada they had been excited about this possibility, the

social groups related to the Government

rejected that they are going to mobilize on Wednesday to accompany from the streets the speech that President

Alberto Fernández

will deliver at the opening of the ordinary sessions congressional.

The fierce internship that divides waters within the ruling party and the determination "

not to validate" a re-election project of the president

were the central arguments of the leaders of the

Evita Movement, Somos Barrios de Pie and the Unión Trabajadores de la Economía Popular (UTEP)

for not join the mobilization that encouraged albertismo, as transmitted from those organizations before the

Clarín

queries .

After confirming that Kirchnerism does not plan to mobilize its militants for the opening of the legislative year, those around Alberto Fernández had encouraged the idea of ​​their

own demonstration

around Congress, with

posters, banners and columns of protesters

contributed by some spaces more related to the head of state, among which they mentioned

mayors of the Buenos Aires suburbs and social movements

aligned with the ruling party.

However, from several municipalities they assured that until now they have not received a specific request from Albertismo to accompany the presidential speech with their militants, while from Evita and Somos Barrios de Pie they were adamant in refusing to join the mobilization after the polls they received from the executive

"There was no unified call.

So there is no framework to go,"

Daniel Menéndez

, coordinator of Somos Barrios de Pie and Undersecretary of Integration and Training Policies of the Ministry of Social Development,

told this newspaper .

Gildo Onorato

, a benchmark for Evita - led by Emilio Pérsico and UTEP,

spoke along the same lines .

"We are not mobilizing because

it is a scenario that tries to validate Alberto's candidacy and that today divides

the Frente de Todos," the leader emphasized.

And he added: "We want there to be unity and we are going to work so that through the PASO or by consensus we can build a competitive proposal" for the next elections.

From the Government they assured during the weekend that the heads of Evita that and other movements close to the Front of All were probed to mobilize this Wednesday, but the answer was always negative.

Since Alberto Fernández took office, with the exception of the few months of peace in his relationship with Vice President Cristina Kirchner, the social movements have always been the main recruiters for the President's acts.

However, after the short-circuits between the leaders of some pro-government groups and Minister Victoria Tolosa Paz, who made progress on the control of social plans, the link wore out.

According to the sources consulted by

Clarín

, last Saturday the President himself would have called Pérsico -who made public his discontent with the Minister of Social Development- to try to contain the discontent of the social leader.
