Last Monday, this newspaper reported, exclusively, of the coordination in the protests between the leader of the Fenatep-Puno and accused of being the founder of Movadef, César Tito Rojas, and the representative of that movement, a front for Sendero Luminoso in Bolivia, Alex Chamán. This time, in another Zoom that we publish today, it is clear that Fenatep, Pedro Castillo’s teachers’ union, actively participated in the protests against Dina Boluarte.
In this video conversation, via Zoom, held on January 28, there are three key moments that corroborate that Fenatep, linked to Movadef, not only “proposed” that teachers march to the capital to be at the Toma de Lima , but was “actively fighting” in Puno and the rest of the country.
LOOK: Video reveals that there is a link to Movadef in the Puno protests
IN THE MAKING OF LIMA
In the first Zoom that we broadcast, recorded on January 7, two days before the clashes at the Juliaca airport, between the military and the protesters, Tito told Chamán that the Taking of Lima was taking place, to obtain the resignation of President Dina Boluarte.
In this new Zoom, Tito confesses to Chamán that his union “is considering” traveling to Lima to be in the protests, and that he was already “fighting” in Puno. That is, he goes from announcement to action.
“This week it is also being proposed at the national level that, from various regions, together with the people, they should march towards the capital of the Republic. In the Puno region, the teachers who are affiliated with Fenate-Peru are permanently together with the people, of course, with our own backstage, with our own logo, from the union of the Regional Sute de Puno, right?” Tito tells him. to Shaman.
He adds after teachers participate in protests in the provinces.
“And, in the various regions of the country, the same, the teachers are actively in the fight. To that extent, obviously, we consider that the teaching profession is not or is not outside the people. We are part of the people, and we are fighting together with the people, like Fenate-Peru, as regional bases, ”he points out.
IT WILL BE ADDED TO THE SECOND TAKE OF LIMA
At another time, Tito Rojas explains to Chamán that, based on his Marxist dogma, the protests will not stop.
“In that sense, this fight is long-term. This is not going to end. Whatever the outcome, we know that there are new pictures that are being forged”, says Tito. And he predicts that, to achieve the referendum of the Constituent Assembly, and change the Constitution, the protest could last 12 years, as in Chile.
“If Chile began its fight with secondary students, since 2006, 2007, and they only achieved their Constituent Assembly in 2019… Let’s hope it won’t be so long,” he concludes.
UNION RATIFIES ITS UNEMPLOYMENT
Sutep says that “it will be a failure” and asks that his license be revoked. The general secretary of the Fenatep of Metropolitan Lima, Professor Daniel Cerrón, told this outlet that the beginning of the indefinite strike of his unionwhich is seeking the resignation of President Dina Boluarte, will be postponed until next week because “we are not going to start a strike without students.”
He explained that his leadership will meet between today and tomorrow to set the day of next week to begin his indefinite strike, because the Minister of Education, Óscar Becerra, suspended the start of classes until Monday the 20th due to the heavy rains that hit the country.
He assured that the protest could include taking over schools and mobilizations in Lima and the rest of the country.
“RETIRE YOUR LICENSE”
The general secretary of Sutep, Lucio Castro, told Peru21 that Fenatep postponed its strike because it knows that “it will be a failure” because it does not have a call.
He said that it is in the hands of the government to take away from Fenatep its union representation license because it was given to him by the former Minister of Labor, Iber Maraví, who was from that same union as the former president Pedro Castillo.
I KNEW THAT
-The lawyer Mario Amoretti said that the videos “are basic indications” for the initiation of a fiscal investigation for acts of terrorism against those involved.
-César Tito told this outlet that the videos “have been edited” to “stigmatize” the protests.
– Tito and Chamán have known each other since 2018, when they participated in a Movadef event with Pedro Castillo in Bolivia.
