Efraín Alegre, president of the Liberal Party (PLRA), held a meeting with Hugo Estigarribia, a former Colorado national senator, last Tuesday. It was a dinner where political issues were discussed. In addition, from Alegre and Estigarribia, Federico Gómez, former president of section 32 of the ANR, was present, who, at the time, was part of Luis María Argaña’s team.
Estigarribia, a legislator during the 2013-2018 period, told Ñanduti AM that Alegre invited him for a political conversation, where they discussed projects and agendas for the 2023 presidential elections.
“This is not weird. We have known Efraín for quite some time. We were partners in a master’s degree in political science and we were senators together. Politics is talking and I am looking to return to the political arena, talking with various sectors, inside and outside my party, “he said.
Estigarribia urged citizens to put aside the divisions so that it no longer seems so striking that Colorado politicians talk with liberals and vice versa.
“This country, with the divisions and antagonisms that it has, is not going ahead. In that context we had a conversation. We have talked about many topics. Analyzed the national reality ”, he affirmed.
The Colorado politician stressed several times that he is speaking with several people. This, given the constant claim that exists within his party of people who are tired of the current leaders; Horacio Cartes and Abdo Benítez.
He questioned that the same leaders of the ANR will again seek to occupy other new positions such as Horacio Cartes and Nicanor Duarte Frutos in the presidency of the ANR. As well as Hugo Velázquez, involved in the secret act of Itaipú, as a candidate for President of the Republic.
“We also talked with many colorados. We are not necessarily talking about a charge. We talk more about projects. Either at the party or national level. To have a national agenda that prioritizes development with a business community on equal terms, “he said.
TOPICS
In general, both Alegre and Estigarribia spoke about the concentration projects. In addition, Alegre gave details about what is addressed at his party table, how he leads his leadership in the PLRA and how he won the recent party elections.
“Everything was within a framework of harmony. This political model does not give more. Responsibilities are personal and non-partisan. We are going to talk to those who want good politics ”, he declared.
Estigarribia is also in talks with Kattya González. It should be remembered that another politician who has a similar line is Miguel Prieto, who has the intention of a great agreement for the next presidential elections in 2023.
