The Vice President of the Republic and President of the Senate, Beatriz Argimón, is currently on a trip to Ukraine and Russia in order, as she herself said, to promote peace to end the war unleashed by Vladimir Putin on Ukrainian territory. .
She traveled as part of a mission from the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) and, according to statements from this instance, the first phase in Ukraine has already been completed and now the group is heading to Russia.
“These days have been very intense for the mission entrusted to us by the IPU to build bridges between the parliaments of Ukraine and Russia. During the work meetings we have had confidentiality. After the first phase in kyiv and subsequent meeting with the president of the Polish Parliament, we continued our trip to Moscow, ”Argimón wrote through his personal Instagram account.
During the trip they met with the President of the Polish Senate, Tomasz Grodzki, and the Vice President of the Senate, Gabriela Morawska-Stanecka, after having toured several areas affected by the bombings of the different military forces.
Argimón also participated in a meeting with the UIP’s Ukrainian delegation and a talk with the Ukrainian Attorney General, Iryna Venediktova.
How much does your trip cost?
By transcending the journey, LARED21 sent a request for information to the Presidency of the Republic, in the understanding that she holds the investiture of Vice President of the Republic.
However, she is traveling as president of the Senate and, therefore, the Presidency understands that “It is not possible” to respond to the request for information, precisely because Argimón’s trip is as a parliamentarian.
“The requested information is not related to the powers of the Presidency of the Republic but of the Legislative Power, before which the interested party could address directly, without this meaning to pronounce on the relevance of what was requested,” it says in the response dated 14 July and signed by Rodrigo Ferrés Rubio, Assistant Secretary of the Presidency.
And adds: “Article 14 of Law No. 18,381 establishes that the request for access to information does not imply the obligation of the obligated subjects to create or produce information that they do not possess or have no obligation to have at the time of placing the order., providing that the agency communicates in writing that the denial of the request is due to the non-existence of data in its possession, regarding the requested information; II) that, therefore, it is not possible to access what was requested”.
Therefore, the Presidency of the Republic resolved that “Unable to access what was requested.”
