The deputy general secretary of the CGT, Andrés Rodríguez (UPCN), considered that the Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, "is a very good candidate for President? for the Frente de Todos (FdT) and also maintained that "Peronism is competitive " in view of the open, simultaneous and mandatory primary elections (PASO) next Sunday, August 13.

"There are many of us who see Massa as a possible candidate, very drinkable because he has political ability and has a long history. He has not yet been defined organically by the Party (Justicialista) or by the CGT, but personally, Massa He is my candidate," Rodríguez pointed out in statements to El Destape Radio.

With respect to the electoral definitions, the trade unionist estimated that the FdT "must generate a whole current that aims at unity and define an electoral strategy to have possibilities of presenting a strong competition" facing the next elections.

Andrés Rodríguez assures that the CGT supports Massa's economic management.

For Andrés Rodríguez, Peronism "is competitive", but he stated that "the situation must be defined as to whether there will be more than one list" or there will be a "single" list of applicants who will represent the ruling coalition in the PASO.

It is expected that during the CGT act, the workers' union will urge the political, union and business leadership to reach "a great political, economic and social consensus".

Massa was invited to this event, who will not attend because he is traveling with President Alberto Fernández to meet with the President of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

From the environment of the leader of the Renovation Front, they assured Télam that Massa will send a letter in response to the CGT's invitation.

Rodríguez announced that "there is also support" from the CGT for Massa's management at the head of the Ministry of Economy because "undoubtedly, there is an effort to try to get ahead."

"Massa took over the economy at a very special moment. There was a lot of uncertainty and he managed the situation with political skill. There are certain variables that improved with his management, but others still could not be stabilized," he said.

Regarding the labor reform projects promoted by the opposition, Rodríguez maintained that "the modernization of the negotiations is something that is already present in the collective labor agreements."

"This is a practice that has been carried out for many years. There are activities that have been adjusting their agreement to the reality of the changes in production. We do not want any labor reform because whenever it was announced it was to remove rights," he concluded.

The displacement of Mauricio Macri, Alberto Fernández and Cristina Kirchner (at least until now) from the presidential fight ahead of the 2023 elections left open scenarios on both sides of the rift.

These are the two leaders of the coalitions and the current president, who in an almost unprecedented event for Argentine democracy will not seek an encore despite being empowered.

This boosted the aspirations of different leaders in the Frente de Todos y Juntos por el Cambio.

And the surveys come out to evaluate them almost minute by minute.

In campaign mode, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta announced this Tuesday the tightening of the requirements to access social plans in the City.

"Porteña Citizenship, which is the City's assistance plan, goes directly from the State to the beneficiary. We do not have intermediaries. And we also include some considerations, such as sending the children to school. But we are going to do more. Today we want to present a new measure to limit the temporality of the plan, so that it is an aid in an emergency, but that it never discourages the search and getting a job, "he said in an act.

And he explained: “That is why we are adding two new conditions to the plans: the first, training to get a job.

We are going to offer training courses aimed at the current and specific demands of the world of work and this training is going to be mandatory.

They have to complete, at least, 40 decapcatiation hours per year.

Whoever does not comply, loses the program.

In addition, the Government will provide "the beneficiaries with offers related to their interests, their knowledge and the course they have taken. For this reason, going to the interviews and accepting the jobs will be mandatory. If there are more than two absences without justification for job interviews or if more than two offers are rejected, they lose the program. It's the other way around today."

The PRO divides again: now, for the presidential candidacy of José Luis Espert

The family photo that was released with Mauricio Macri, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, Patricia Bullrich, María Eugenia Vidal, Diego Santilli, Cristian Ritondo, Federico Angelini and Fernando de Andreis, calmed the waters but did not eliminate the crack in the PRO.

The entry of José Luis Espert to Juntos por el Cambio with his Avanza Libertad space revitalized those differences, which may now be less high-sounding, but which persist.

Although Espert launched his candidacy to succeed Axel Kicillof in November, in February he had a meeting with JvC leaders to tell them that he was willing to compete at the national level.

And this Monday he assured Radio Miter that "what I prefer is to be a candidate for president."

Harsh criticism of Cristina from a former official "who did not work"

After being displaced from the government, one of the former officials "who did not work", Matías Kulfas, takes revenge.

On May 19, he will present at the Book Fair "A Peronism for the 21st Century", a 223-page work in which he dispatches harsh criticism of Cristina Kirchner, without apologizing to the president, Alberto Fernández, who appointed him to head the Ministry of Productive Development.

Along with a photograph of both, he wrote: "I accompany you on this path that you are going to take as in every step that we decided to take since we began to build our life together."

The CGT closes ranks with Massa, but endorses Cristina's strategy and hits Javier Milei

A deeply critical description of the economic and social reality, the urgent demand to review the agreement with the IMF and evident signs of support for Sergio Massa's presidential project make up the main guidelines of the message that the CGT will brandish this Tuesday in its own staging for Labor Day.

All this but with an important novelty: it will also endorse the electoral strategy inaugurated a few days ago by Cristina Kirchner to focus its heaviest political artillery against the figure of the libertarian Javier Milei.

A striking gesture in a central where sympathies for the vice president are far from expressing the majority of the union leadership.

Milei: "We are about to enter the ballotage"

The presidential candidate Javier Milei spoke in Trebucq's first program, on the brand-new radio station

El Observador.

About

the country's political situation, he said: “Argentina has been in a process of moral degradation for just over 100 years.

What he called the caste model”.

In turn, he said that he is "convinced" that today La Libertad Avanza will reach the second round.

"We are convinced that today we are ready to enter the ballotage."

In turn, he said that if he reached the second round "it doesn't matter who is in front, we are going to win, we are going to reach the presidency and start the reconstruction of Argentina."

Mauricio Macri envió un mensaje al programa que conduce el periodista Luis Majul, con motivo de la primera emisión del ciclo que éste conduce en la flamante radio El Observador. Allí, el ex presidente dijo, de cara al próximo gobierno, que “se necesitan voces comprometidas, con coraje, auténticas para decir lo que piensan”.

“Sin medias tintas, sin volver a caer en lo políticamente correcto que está lleno de mentiras”, añadió el líder del PRO que ya se bajó de una posible candidatura.

A su vez, consideró que “por suerte” el gobierno de Alberto Fernández, “que es el peor de la historia de la democracia” argentina “va a terminar”.

Por último, añadió que el país necesita "cambios muy profundos y valientes para que la Argentina encuentre su rumbo”.

Lanzan una plataforma para consultar los resultados históricos de las elecciones en Argentina

La Dirección Nacional Electoral (DINE) junto al Observatorio Político Electoral, dependiente de la Secretaría de Asuntos Políticos del Ministerio del Interior, lanzaron el Sistema de Publicación de Resultados Electorales, una plataforma que por primera vez tendrá a disposición los resultados históricos de las elecciones en Argentina.

Según resaltaron desde Asuntos Políticos y la DINE, a cargo de Patricia García Blanco y Marcos Schiavi, respectivamente, esta herramienta permite a través de una interfaz ágil y dinámica acceder a los resultados de, en principio, la última década, tanto de cargos nacionales como provinciales y locales elegidos de forma simultánea.

Además, la plataforma permitirá filtrar los datos por agrupaciones políticas, cargos a elegir y distritos electorales, y se podrá descargar la información en formato CSV.

Hasta ahora los resultados electorales provisionales de los distintos actos electorales se encontraban almacenados de manera dispersa sobre diferentes recursos, dispositivos o sistemas .

Además se encontraban en formatos distintos, lo que impedía realizar un análisis comparativo entre resultados de diferentes actos electorales, ámbitos y categorías, dificultando a la ciudadanía acceder plenamente a esa información.

Para acceder al Sistema de Publicación de Resultados Electorales, los ciudadanos y ciudadanas podrás ingresar a: https://resultados.mininterior.gob.ar/

El nuevo desafío de Alberto Fernández a Cristina Kirchner: quiere que blanquee su estrategia para las PASO

Cuentan quienes lo frecuentan que Alberto Fernández está "liberado", como si haber anunciado su decisión de no buscar la reelección hubiera dejado sin más argumentos al kirchnerismo para seguir deslindando su responsabilidad. Con esa tranquilidad, la semana pasada, en la previa a la reaparición de Cristina, el Presidente reafirmó su intención de que hubiera competencia interna en el Frente de Todos y se anotó como parte del espacio que considera que "no debe haber nadie que señale a un candidato" único.
