The former Vice President of the Nation and former Minister of Economy, Beloved Boudousaid this Monday that Argentina “must not grow to pay the International Monetary Fund (IMF) the debt for more than 44 billion pesos acquired during the government of Mauricio Macri.
“We must celebrate the project of the Front of All, because I do not think that Argentina should grow to pay the Fund,” said Boudou, during a ceremony that took place in the Blue Room of the Chamber of Senators of the Nation, ten years after the enactment of the Gender Identity Law.
In this way, the former vice president of the current head of the upper house, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchnersupported the initiative that, in principle, will be debated in the Senate this Thursday to pay the debt with the Fund using capital from Argentines who fled abroad.
Accompanied by the inspector from INADI, Victoria Dondaand referents of the fight for the sanction of that norm, Boudou affirmed that “The system no longer allows us to talk about the economy and we only talk about finances.”
“We live in the dictatorship of patriarchal capital and destroyer of the environment. And we are here celebrating equality and life,” he analyzed.

Faced with this scenario, Boudou said that “politics must resolve conflicts in favor of those who have fewer material possibilities.”
In this sense, he postulated that “the resources of the Budget be for the improvement of Argentines” and remarked that “The course should not know of a fiscal surplus, payment of the debtbecause “those are tools”.
In addition, he advised “not to confuse tools with objectives” and stated: “there can be no social justice without economic independence, nor economic independence without political sovereignty.”
The meeting was organized by the official senator for Chubut, Carlos Linareswho called for “going for more rights” and questioned the opposition’s proposal to move forward with the debate on the Single Electoral Ballot.
“What do I care about the long ballot or the short ballot. We must talk about people’s issues. That is the agenda of the block of the Front of All of the Senate where we have our driver,” he said, adding that the vice president motivated the legislators pro-government “to do the work that we must do”.
“Inflation is a problem, unemployment is a problem. But we must attack the issues on the people’s agenda,” insisted the senator from Chubut.
In her turn, the head of INADI stressed that “rights are guaranteed with economic resources” and stressed that “when you fight for those rights to be effective, someone is going to hit someone’s pocket.”
In addition, he questioned the opposition by affirming that “they used a part of the state as the Armed Forces used before” and ruled: “the Armed Forces were replaced by part of the judicial apparatus.”
