The National Party candidate, Alvaro Delgadohe once again insisted that the Frente Amplio does not consider the “repression” of crimeif he reaches the government, an argument that he has been using for weeks to attack the left-wing force, now led by the candidate Yamandu Orsi.
This government gave political support to the police, the police reduced crimes, and we must continue to reduce them. Are we satisfied? No, but the way is this. “repression”, a word that is not in the Frente Amplio government program, rehabilitation, reintegration, not deprisonization, a word that is…”, Delgado began by saying in an interview on the program Fácil Deviarse, hosted by Diego Zas and Juanchi Hounie. .
They interrupted him to point out that the word “repression” Yes, it is in the Frente Amplio government program. In the digital edition of the Programmatic Bases 2025-2030, available on the Frente Amplio websitesays verbatim:
The various institutional efforts aimed at mitigating these problems have not been sufficient. Towards the future we must resize those institutional and operational improvements that were developed in the Broad Front governments, working at the same time on combat and crime suppressionwith those of coexistence; concept integrated by the Broad Front into the security story. Working on coexistence means working on the causes of insecurity and especially on the social prevention of crimes; from territorial decentralization and permanent dialogue between institutions and society, starting from the identification of problems, the overcoming proposals built collectively and the appropriation of the achievements that are obtained.
After taking a long sip of water, Delgado replied: “They go around a lot, really… Do you know what’s happening? The Frente Amplio likes to go for broke, but in this case, The FA has an ideological theme in repression. I think it is an ideological issue, especially the leadership, people are interested in making sure they are safer, it is like there is a romantic vision of crime. We have to think about the causes but also the consequences,” the nationalist candidate explained.
The word “repression” is in the programmatic bases of the Frente Amplio, but for Álvaro Delgado the FA has an “ideological issue” with that concept.
