Two days after being placed within the framework of
Memorial Day
and almost at the same time that the national government confirmed the name change of the Kirchner Cultural Center, the mayor of the Cordoba city of
Marcos Juárez
ordered
the removal of a monument to the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo
.
Sara Majorel, the community leader who arrived at the mayor's office with Together for Change, gave the order to
remove the giant
cement scarf that had been placed in the Plaza de los Escritores, a property located next to the railway station.
That monument was installed in the place by a group close to Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, but that did not participate in the official events for
Remembrance Day
.
The mayor's official argument was that the Deliberative Council had not granted the necessary permission for the installation of that monument.
This was stated by Majorel herself to the newspaper La Nación.
"The reality is that the Deliberative Council is the one that approves the installation of certain artistic expressions and in this case permission was not requested, as is appropriate, and as is done with any institution that installs something in a public space," she said.
The monument that had been placed in Marcos Juárez.
Majorel, who is an affiliate of the PRO and supports, like much of that space, the management of Javier Milei, appealed to a phrase widely used in the national Executive to justify: "
Within the law everything, outside the law nothing
."
The decision of the municipal mayor generated a stir in the city and also on social networks with the viralization of videos in which a group of workers can be seen removing the handkerchief that had been placed days before with picks, hammers and shovels.
As specified by the municipality, the group that built it could present the permit to place it in another part of the city.
The same argument that the mayor put forward by the president of the Deliberative Council, Javier Barletta.
