The Minister of the Interior, Luis Alberto Heber, participated in the nationalist meeting of Todos held this Saturday in La Paloma, in which he stressed that President Luis Lacalle Pou saw him as “very Herrerista” after his participation in Celac this week.
“I saw Luis Alberto shine, I saw him very blacksmith, in his genes, with courage, impose his themes,” he said. He considered his government “successful” and was “proud” of it. “The president does not mince words, he says dictatorship, he points his finger. They talk about democracy and in their countries they have political prisoners, persecuted,” he launched.
At Celac, Lacalle Pou gave a speech of just over ten minutes in which he reproached the “hemiplegic” looks that ask for respect for human rights but call for silence in the face of what is happening in countries with ideological affinity such as Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua.
Heber also referred to the social security reform that is now under study in Deputies and that they have the responsibility of “not putting water in wine.” “Four times we introduced (changes to) social security in the 1990s and we failed,” she said, though she maintained that the president now “didn’t kick it forward” but rather “took on and got excited.”
“The keel of our ship works better in rough waters,” he illustrated.
widen the base
When it was the turn of the vice president, Beatriz Argimón, (representing Futuro Nacional) she referred in her speech to the fact that the National Party should “open its base.”
“It is strategic, to be everywhere this year and we all have a role, to go out into the territory to communicate what this government is doing. There should be no meetings of leadership,” he said.
