The Mayor of Montevideo Caroline Cosse said this Friday that Uruguay is a country “without direction” Y he has “no plans.” The statements prompted the reply from the vice president Beatriz Argimonwho replied that the country does have a course and a “very marked” one.

On Friday the two leaders met at an event in Punta del Este, where the Venetian Luxury Residencies project was inaugurated. In a press conference recorded by Telemundo Cosse, he referred to the situation that the government of Luis Lacalle Pou is going through.

And said: “I see it aimlessly, because we don’t know anything about what will happen to the work of the future, there is no plan“.

The mayor of Montevideo added that the educational reform is “done behind closed doors” and that the country has a “serious institutional image problem“. In this way, Cosse referred to the scandal unleashed after the arrest of former head of presidential custodians Alejandro Astesiano and to the publication of the international media Financial Times, which pointed to that case in a recent report.

“I think there is an issue of institutional crisis. You have to work for straighten that, to rebuild. You have to work with gestures and actions. To deal in depth with the serious things of the future: energy, telecommunications, the issue of the environment and work,” he argued.

Cosse’s statements generated the response of Argimón, who also participated in the event in Punta del Este and was consulted about the mayor’s statements.

“I feel that there is a course that is too clear”said the vice president. And she pointed out that the government “is clear” what “has to do” and “where it is going.”

“The course was determined in a government program that the people voted for, which was ratified in part in a plebiscite of the Urgent Consideration law, which maintained the lines of the government,” he continued.

And he concluded by affirming that the country and the government have a course “very marked“. “It is also shown by an economic line that has a north and surely those who are observing the country with great attention, ratify that This is a government that is clear not only about what it had to do, but also where it is going.”
