The President of the Republic has an asphalt supplier company, he says that he already had it before and that even with the Cartes government as a senator he had violated the norm by selling asphalt to the State, when that was prohibited for a legislator.
Later, Abdo himself explained that they now continue to have this company, which has extraordinarily improved their income, but that it does not sell directly to the State, but rather to a third party, which is the one that finally sold to the State.
Things are still turning dark brown with this type of Abdo application, he is acknowledging that he continues with his business without seeing any conflict of interest at all, when the millionaire Chilean president Sebastián Piñera took office, he gave all his companies to a blind trust or he sold them, all because he didn’t want to have anything that conflicts with his position as chief executive.
In ours, the cost of the asphalt that could have cost 20 by selling it directly to the State through a third party, will end up being worth at least 25, which shows us that the President fails to understand that the conflict of interest must be resolved based on of the interests of the Republic, of the collective interests, there should be no presumption towards the president and his activities other than those that he has sworn in at the time of taking office, we must understand Paraguayans that the conflict of interest does not really harm, it hits us economically and strengthens corruption.
Abdo should not continue bringing asphalt, despite the great business he has done during these four years.
