The president of the broad frontFernando Pereira, charged again against the government and affirmed that it “was exhausted” at the same time that he questioned Lacalle for saying that the opposition “gives a handle”.
“Clearly the government exhausted itself and did so in less time than the public expected,” Pereira began at a press conference.
“Astesiano falsified Russian passports, persecuted senators of the Republic, apparently received information from former police chief Layera, there were apparently cell phone interventions without the intervention of Justice. Which of these things is a handle, where is it?”, he asserted.
“In any case, if there is a handle, it will be the journalists who have published this information in all the media and no one denied that it is true. Information could come out saying that it is not true, but it did not happen, ”he added.
“What is the handle, describe that there is an institutional problem, describe a reality?”, he reflected.
“Don’t you think there is an institutional problem when a gang is set up to commit crimes in the Executive Tower, when the person in charge of the president’s security had an enormous number of inquiries linked to crimes of fraud, theft, when he had been imprisoned for two opportunities. That went under the radar to Intelligence, who hires the head of custody, the head of security for the Presidency, ”he continued.
The president’s chats
For the president of the Broad Front there is “a nervous government” and he questioned the position that he takes in the face of “nerves.” “A nervous government has to reflect, not attack the opposition. What would be the role of the opposition, then?” He said.
On the secret of the chats of Asthesian with Lacalle, Pereira suggested that its revision is necessary due to its importance.
“You have to protect the president. Yes of course. It will be necessary to remove all the chats that have to do with the private life of the president. But then Astesiano’s chats with Lacalle can be important, ”he said.
“I do not believe, because otherwise I would say so, that the president is involved in these matters, but I do believe that the Executive Power acted naively and with a lack of political praxis to carry out a government that is surprising,” he said.
