At the beginning of a week that will once again be marked by oppressive heat, the Minister of Social Development, Victoria Tolosa Paz, expects days of extreme tension given that the leftist picketers will begin a three-day encampment next Monday in
front
of the headquarters of the Ministry and promise
chaos in Buenos Aires traffic to "wake up the political leadership".
In the midst of an economic scenario that they describe as "increasingly disastrous," the organizations grouped in the
Piquetera Unit will gather from 3:00 p.m.
at two points in the City of Buenos Aires - in front of the Obelisk and at the intersection of Avenida 9 de Julio and Independence- from where they will march to the Ministry of Social Development.
"At 3:00 p.m. we will gather, around 4:30 p.m. we will be at the Ministry and at 8:00 p.m. we begin to set up the tents.
The first thing we ask for is work and tools
. Also
that they expedite and comply with the deadlines for food delivery
, because it is arriving late and less. We want the minister to receive us," stressed
Mónica Sulle
, the reference of the MST "Teresa Vive", in dialogue with
Clarín
.
Although the conflict with left-wing social organizations is not new for the government of Alberto Fernández, although it increased after the cessation of the almost 160,000 plans for the Potenciar Trabajo program, this week's protest will be the beginning of a series of actions that They will start up to, as they explain, "
wake up the leadership
."
"
July 9 is going to be cut with the Metrobus included. This time everything is cut, we are tougher,
" anticipated Sulle, who clarified that if the Minister of Social Development "accepted a meeting to compromise and resolve the claims, it would not be they would not have to carry out the camps or cuts".
Left-wing social organizations ask "to stop the adjustment carried out by the national government."

Under the slogan "Down with the adjustment! No more hunger!", the main leftist organizations called for a march towards the Ministry to protest against the "adjustment".
In this context, they considered that "
Tolosa Paz is satisfied with the casualties of the Potenciar Trabajo program."
"
Beyond the elections, which they know they lose, the agreement with the International Monetary Fund runs them
. They know they are leaving. So, the agreements that we can make will not last long, if they comply with them," he shot the referent of the MST "Teresa Vive", who explained that the protest will culminate next Wednesday at 10 with an act in front of the Ministry.
After the latest measures of force, the Minister of Social Development redoubled the bet and hardened her position against the piqueteros, which is why she did not receive a delegation of leaders.
"
She is a provocateur. Tolosa Paz is in an electoral campaign
. More than in the Ministry they will see her touring the country and making videos," stressed the social leader, recalling the strong accusations she made against the leaders of the Piquetero Unit, particularly about the referent of the Polo Obrero Eduardo Belliboni.
"July 9 is going to be cut with the Metrobus included. This time everything is cut, we are tougher," emphasized Mónica Sulle, leader of the MST Teresa Vive.

Along these lines, he dismissed the accusations of the national official and regretted: "
People are left with the fact that we are extortionists, pointers and all jets.
There must be respect.
The minister accuses and stigmatizes."
"In December, Tolosa Paz promised solutions that finally did not arrive, but later he goes out to speak from the interior of the country and makes videos.
He has a right-wing discourse
. The social policies of this government are the same that the macrismo applied. For example, the linking of social plans with employment in companies. It is something that failed and we had warned [former Minister of Social Development Juan] Zabaleta of it," he emphasized.
In addition, he highlighted the brief management of the mayor of Hurlingham in charge of the social portfolio: "The first who treated us as extortionists was
Zabaleta
when he said 'I don't get along with extortionists' and finally he joined.
There was dialogue
with him , but
Tolosa Paz goes beyond. She seeks to liquidate the social movements
so that the mayors manage everything".
Faced with what the MST referent "Teresa Vive" defined as "a
social policy that is a delusion
", since "it is about trial and error", the opposition social movements promise a "spicy" week in the streets of Buenos Aires as part of of a string of measures of force that are already agreed upon.
Mónica Sullé stressed that with the former Minister of Social Development Juan Zabaleta "there was dialogue."
Within the framework of the "fight plan" that the Piquetera Unit voted on March 3, during an assembly in the Plaza de Mayo, the protest schedule will continue on April 5 with access cuts to national routes, provincial routes and accesses to the City of Buenos Aires.
"If Tolosa Paz does not receive us, it has already been voted that on
April 5
there will be a roadblock. We are also going to cut the highways, the accesses to the City of Buenos Aires, the highways.
No one comes out and it will be in the previous of Holy Week
", pointed out Sulle.
With doubts than hopes, the leftist piqueteros also have an agenda to carry out a "Great Federal March" on May 15, where caravans that will leave from different parts of the country will converge on the Plaza de Mayo.
