With the publication from a video that brings together images of some of the 1,000 works of paralysis throughout the Buenos Aires region, the governor Axel Kicillof announce that he will pick up a joint appeal to the Casa Rosada, with the signature of the mayor of all political forcesto send back “a special thirst for revenge” from the administration of Javier Milei towards the province. “It is a social crime to stop public works,” said Kicillof in his harsh defense against the national government’s change plan.
Berazategui, Hazelnut, Torquinst, General Lavalle, Florence Varela, Guamini, Muir Beg, Navarro, These are some of the cities of Buenos Aires that can be seen with paralyzed works in the video shared by Kicillof to deny how the famous “fiscal balance” of La Libertad Avanza “was achieved on the basis a social disaster.”
“Fiscal balance at the cost of more social imbalance, more inequality, more pain,” The governor summarized the economic plan of Milei and his minister Luis Caputo, which in the last few weeks appear as achievements of the fall in the risk of the country, reducing the gap between parallel and official dollars , and the financial spring. “Cutting pensions, less investment in health and education, tax cuts for millionaires, cutting money to areas for retirees, teachers, transportation, security and a complete ban on public works,” Kicillof said.
The works paralyzed in the Department
The video that the president of Buenos Aires posted to the networks showsto the visits he made with the Minister of Infrastructure, Gabriel Katopodis, and local mayors to the paralyzed works by decision of the national Executive Branch: educational buildings, social housing, health centers and water treatment plants. “A ban on public works just means that the national State is abandoning its responsibilities,” said Kicillof.
The governor highlighted the effort of his administration to maintain the continuity of some of the jobsand he assured that it is “increasingly difficult”, because of the “financial oppression to which Milei is subjecting us and the economic unrest caused by his policies.” And he described the decision to make the paralysis in “a country with so much inequality and structural deficits” as “ideological importance”.
“Despite the national government being completely obliterated, we are a wing and as a network to reduce the social damage Milei is doing. However, no matter how hard we try, it is not enough. We are not an island and we don’t want to be,” warns Kicillof.
“a special thirst for revenge”
In that address, the president on the board made the claim that they, together with the mayors, brought to the Executive Branch from the first day of the administration to support public works, that he declared the “illegality” of the cut, and He recalled that he expected this axis to be part of the May Agreement, which Milei signed with several governors, among whom Kicillof was not.
Despite the agreements reached by the Casa Rosada with several governors, Kicillof noted that “Milei continues to melt the provinces – as he promised -” and emphasized the “special thirst for revenge” against Buenos Airesto be one of those who raise “the voice against this model of exclusion and abandonment.”
“Perhaps Milei thinks that if he punishes the people of the Province for defeating him (he lost in PASO, the first round and ballot), he will get the vote as a request for mercy. He does not know on the people of Buenos Aires,” the governor warned in the election year preview and anticipated the action that will be taken in the coming days: “Our opponents want me to hold out and I think it is good that they will enter the application. During this week I will invite senior -bars of all political forces to sign a joint appeal to Milei’s government.”
