In the prelude to the marathon session in which the ruling party will seek to approve the omnibus bill in Deputies, the Minister of Security Patricia Bullrich has already given the order to apply the
anti-picketing protocol
that debuted on December 20 and was partially replicated during the mobilization of the CGT last Wednesday.
Piquetera Unit
, which brings together left-wing social organizations, will mobilize from noon towards
Congress Plaza
together with unions such as the UBA Teachers' Union Association and the Tire Workers, among others.
The ATE Capital section, headed by
Daniel Catalano
, is studying joining since the afternoon.
"
We activate the protocol and we are going to order the demonstration that is called
," Bullrich was heard saying.
Federal forces will monitor access to the City, the railway stations and will reinforce the security of the Legislative Palace.
Bullrich, who immortalized the phrase of the "
14 tons of stone
" in the 2017 demonstration when the Cambiemos government he was part of promoted the pension calculation reform,
does not believe that a similar warning scenario exists
.
This time, unlike then, the bulk of Peronism, the mayors, the CGT and social organizations will not mobilize to Congress.
"
The protocol applies the same
," they warned in Security when asked by
Clarín
.
Police and protesters from the Polo Obrero half a meter away.
The City Police, led by
Diego Kravetz
and Minister
Waldo Wolf
, ordered that the protesters must demonstrate in the Plaza without interrupting traffic.
"It will be above the sidewalk. We set up a security device," Buenos Aires sources said.
This time there were no conversations between the organizers of the demonstration and the Buenos Aires authorities.
In the Polo Obrero and in the Left Front they point out that afterwards the City cannot comply with anything agreed upon, because Bullrich sends federal forces with the argument that it is an establishment under its jurisdiction.
"It's a Bullrich doctrine.
That happened on December 20
, in the vicinity of the Casa Rosada, and it will happen this time, because we will march in front of Congress," said Labor Party legislator
Gabriel Solano
.
The picketing groups are betting on calling more than 15,000 protesters.
"
During the afternoon there will be popular assemblies and
cultural groups
will join in
," they expressed.
"We are going to see what the repressive device of the City and the Nation is. We are going to demonstrate peacefully as happened on January 24th when there was no problem," said
Eduardo Belliboni
, of the Polo Obrero.
If the legislative session continues overnight, left-wing organizations
will hold a vigil
.
If it is interrupted to end on Thursday, they will manifest again that day.
There are officials from the Buenos Aires administration who point out with concern that Bullrich "throws fuel on the fire" by excessively publicizing the implementation of the protocol.
The Government seeks
to add epic politics
to the half-sanction of the basic law after eliminating sensitive chapters of the project, such as the prosecutor, and seeks to show that it maintains control of the street.
