The Minister of Social Development of the Nation, Victoria Toulouse Peaceaffirmed this Monday that the president Alberto Fernandez “He is a candidate until he says otherwise” and opined that neither the head of state nor the vice president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner they have to be “proscribed” in the face of the electoral competition that the Frente de Todos (FdT) will face this year.
“Cristina Fernández de Kirchner cannot be proscribed and neither can Alberto Fernándezwith which the President is a candidate until he says otherwise and then we will work so that other candidates can present an electoral proposal that allows us to win the PASO and then go to the general one,” reflected Tolosa Paz.
The minister made this statement in Mar del Plata, where she toured the Mar del Plata Naval Base, where The Children’s Park was inaugurated and the Libertad Frigate was exhibitedwhich has already been visited by more than 90 thousand people in the last 30 days.
In a brief contact with the press at the foot of the Argentine Navy training ship, Tolosa Paz said that “the candidate will emerge from the different expressions that the Frente de Todos has, but Cristina Fernández de Kirchner cannot be proscribed and the president Alberto Fernandez neither”.
“We have to prevent the banning of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and clearly continue to defend, not only the innocence of the vice president, but this tremendous escalation of persecution with a sentence that puts her as the main leader of our movement without the position to compete electorally,” he declared.

Referring to the meeting of the FdT political table a few days ago, Tolosa Paz summarized: “We define that for each and every one of the members of the Front, unity is essential to be able to go through this electoral year.”
“We all believe that the Vice President is banned while a sentence weighs on her that, although it is true that it can be appealed before the Chamber, we understand that the Chamber, which is the one that has to review the appeal, immediately accelerates the processes if Cristina were a candidate. “, he analyzed.
“We understood for a long time that the persecution of Cristina was designed and programmed long before we came to govern; it accelerated with the process of electoral closeness and it will continue because what bothers is the figure of the Vice President who managed to put together a front politician, broaden the bases of participation and return to power in just four years that the right wing governed,” he added.
However, he stressed that the FdT is “united” and “of course willing to go through this electoral period taking care of everything that is missing in Argentina, but also of everything that has been done.”

“We are in an Argentina that is growing, developing, generating opportunities and surely we have more time, as the President says, ahead of us to continue strengthening management,” he declared.
Then, in statements to channel C5N from the seaside resort, Tolosa Paz remarked that “at this stage no one can assume the power to indicate who is and who is not” will be a candidate, but to establish “rules of the game”.
“We are a singular force, we are living in a singular moment, and never in history has a candidate been seen as the President himself submitting to PASO.”
“The President is a profound democrat,” stressed the minister, although she clarified that her possibility of re-election “has not been defined.”
“It seems healthy to point out that the President is empowered to be re-elected,” Tolosa Paz said, and “that he has no objection that a governor or a minister can compete” because, he said, “it speaks of a humility rarely seen in politics.” .
“And it is a definition that came from him when he said that ‘I do not screw myself to any presidential chair’, but I am going to work so that the FdT continues to govern Argentina after 2023′ and that opens hope for the candidates or candidates “, completed the official.
As an example, he mentioned the social leader Juan Grabois and understood that “he has every right to be” a candidate because the space defends “democracy without proscription, not only because of the one that installs the Judiciary but also because no compañero or compañera sits with the right to veto any candidate.
