Vice President Victoria Villarruel
's first television interview
continues to have repercussions and now it's time for
unexpected praise
.
Horacio Verbitsky
, journalist, writer and former head of the
Center for Legal and Social Studies (CELS) -
a Human Rights organization that focused on the causes of genocidaires convicted of crimes against humanity - praised her this Tuesday: "
She seems like an intelligent person to me." , subtle
".
After describing the march in commemoration of the Coup d'état on Memorial Day as
the largest
since the return of democracy, Horacio Verbitsky referred to the video published by the Government as
"silly"
, but when specifically consulted by the vice president, highlighted it.
"He seems to me to be
an intelligent
, subtle person,
nothing to do with the crudeness
of the Bullrichs, the Petris, or Milei's own volleyball," Verbitsky remarked in dialogue with
Radio Perfil
.
"For this reason, many years ago, when the Supreme Court validated the nullity of the Punto Final and Obedience of Life laws and the pardons, from that moment on,
Victoria Villarruel stopped demanding the freedom
of those detained for the crimes against
humanity
and put
the emphasis on demanding punishment for the guerrillas
, which shows intelligence on their part because they see that one path is closed and
they try to open another
," the journalist added.
"She represents much better than Milei, than Bullrich and Petri,
the predominant mood in the Armed Forces
who do not want to be involved in police tasks again.
She is ingenious
and ignored Milei in a tremendous way, this man who, thanks to
Photoshop,
tries to look like Apollo, he called him
'little ham'
, a nickname that
he will never get rid
of, I thought it was very funny," Verbitsky said on Tuesday, laughing.
And regarding the video that the Government released of the "complete story", Verbitsky pointed out: "They have made that silly video, which even Graciela Fernández Meijide has said is
outdated and boring
. They couldn't do anything else because the idea of a pardon, of an amnesty, of a law that provides for automatic house arrest for those over 70 years of age, they do not have the possibility, the numbers to pass it through Congress. A part of the PRO, radicalism and all of Peronism are not going to give it the votes, how are they going to do it? That's why they limit themselves to that silly video,
totally contradictory, it's comical
."
Horacio Verbitsky, about the internal PRO and the popularity of Patricia Bullrich
In another passage of the report, Verbitsky - close to Kirchnerism and exposed in the scandal that emerged as the VIP vaccination in the government of Alberto Fernández - referred to the internal PRO, which now has former president Mauricio Macri as head of the party.

"Macri intended to be the great organizer, the great leader, and
Bullrich bent his arm
and forced him to share the leadership of the party. Bullrich could not be the president of the party because she is a minister in a government of another party, but he gave her the vice presidency. , a man of her own that Macri did not want, and
forced him to share half
of the game," Verbitsky analyzed.
And he added a controversial comparison of the current Minister of Security: "Bullrich has a high degree of popularity, he is the person with the highest acceptance rates in the entire Government, similar
to those of (Leopoldo Fortunato) Galtieri in 1982.
