This weekend the new group was presented in Pocitos “Time to Move On”inside of List 71 of the National Party (PN), which is made up of nationalized immigrants or legal citizens, to whom the Minister of the Interior, Luis Alberto Heber, promised them passports so that they can travel “to visit their relatives.” Among those present were Cubans, Venezuelans and even Russians who now have Uruguayan nationality.
The president of the National Party, Pablo Iturraldehe said on the spot that he is “proud to have Jewish, Basque, Galician and Italian grandparents” and that “they all arrived in a different way, because all that story about them having left the nobility and having palaces there, doesn’t add up to much, because the truth is, they wouldn’t have come if they were in such good shape.” And he added: “This country (Uruguay) was a host country for those who came because they were politically persecuted, or who came because they felt they had to look for a new horizon, a new place to work and build the economy and grow their family”.
The nationalist senator also participated Gloria Rodriguezwho celebrated the arrival of Cubans, Venezuelans and Russians on this list that is now part of his party.
Heber and the promise of passports: “I am the one who makes them”
Taking the microphone, Minister Luis Alberto Heber took the opportunity to remember that he is the one who makes the passports, and promised those present to have theirs so that they can go “visit their relatives.”
“I am in the Ministry of the Interior and I am the one who makes the passports, so I will gladly give them the passports so that they can have the opportunity, not to leave, but to go visit their relatives, so that they can have their documents, so that they can be Uruguayan citizens and so that they get into the matrix itself. of what Uruguay is”, stated the white leader. “Our party, our nationalism, is an inclusive nationalism”, he added.
Heber did not miss the opportunity to blame the Broad Front for the water crisis that Uruguay has been experiencing for months: “And now we have this water crisis, and unbelievably, those who did nothing in the past are the ones who are charging us today, saying that we are guilty of this situation. When they themselves confess that they fell asleep or opted for other situations before thinking about water for the Uruguayans”.
