Juan Grabois was one of the select guests on stage led by Cristina Kirchner this Thursday at the event for May 25. The social leader and presidential candidate, however, lived an uncomfortable moment on the stages. It is that, although he obtained a position close to the vice, he had to follow the speech next to Sergio Massa, of whom he is a staunch critic. And there was even a greeting captured by the cameras.
"It was fun," Grabois said of his closeness to his political rival within the Frente de Todos. On camera they were seen crossing smiles. One in the front row of the right box, with V-fingers; the other, on the far right of Cristina's inner circle, commenting on the low.
"There was a greeting, because the polite does not take away the brave," said the leader of the UTEP and the Frente Patria Grande. "We will continue to have differences. It is a tactical ally in a coalition. It's not a rival, it's a tactical ally. It's a rival to the inside," Grabois added.
And he asked: "You don't have to make a tango of that."
The meeting took place six days after the act that Grabois himself led in Ferro, to strengthen his pre-candidacy. There, he was lapidary with Massa, whom he alluded to with phrases such as "tightrope walker of power" and "neoliberal in disguise." Even the militants dedicated a strong chant to the Minister of Economy: "Massa sos cagón".

Grabois again gave his support to Wado de Pedro
On the other hand, Grabois recalled the governments of Néstor and Cristina Kirchner. "They picked up that glove of the strength of the people who had left and achieved many years of happiness," he said.
He also made a nod to Eduardo "Wado" de Pedro, whom he supports within the Frente de Todos. In fact, he reiterated on several occasions that only if he or someone of his generation runs, he would lower his candidacy.
Wado de Pedro, with Juan Grabois at Villa Fiorito, at the beginning of the month.
"I met Wado on December 20, 2001 in the square, when the people came out to change history," he said of his bond with De Pedro. Curiously, or not so much, the minister is one of the officials who could get on the candidacy of the FdT, a position that is disputed with another interested party, Massa himself.
"In that confluence of social movements, students, of the simple people, a new stage began that later Néstor and Cristina picked up that glove of the strength of the people that had come out and achieved many years of happiness for our people," he continued.
Then he showed complicity with De Pedro: "It is up to our generation to go back all the disaster of these last years and deepen what was done in those." He added: "We have to be represented generationally in the formula and in the project."
For the social referent, "we must define 10 fundamental points" for the country, among them "the cancellation of the agreement with the International Monetary Fund, the nationalization of lithium, the profound judicial reform."
