“On the entire continent we have the greatest infantilization of poverty on the entire continent, we are first. We are first in educational dropouts. We are first in number of prisoners. We are first in number of police officers. We are first in cocaine consumption, and international organizations do not measure those rankings,” Pereyra said on the “Al Weso” program.
And he continued with another reflection: “The elite looks at itself, and that’s why when it looks at itself, it looks down and says, what decadence is there in the people? How they have lost the values down there. Look at yourself, look at yourself. As I always say, in the place where Wilson (Ferreira) sat, sits Graciela Bianchi. Look at yourself a little, it seems like you don’t realize that on a lot of issues they didn’t happen overnight, but rather we naturalized it and when we wanted to agree they were here. We lost track of that perspective.”
The entrance Uruguay in an unwanted ranking, according to journalist Gabriel Pereira was first published in The Digital Echo.
