The mayor of Quilmes, Mayra Mendozacharged again this Thursday against the former president Alberto Fernandezafter the complaint made by the former first lady Fabiola Yañez for gender violence. The Campo leader said that she has “evidence” that the former president exercised violence against his vice president, Cristina Kirchner, as stated in a statement by La Cámpora Mujeres.
“When one of the journalists in Mexico asked me about this situation during a meeting, I said: ‘It’s plausible because he has the behavior of a violent man,'” Mendoza said of her first statement on the subject, at a time when Yañez had not yet gone to court.
According to the mayor, Fernández does not respect women.What I do have evidence of is the political violence he exercised against Cristina. And Cristina may not recognize it, because she cannot even see herself as a victim; but I can. My generation, and with the training that we have, Yes, he knows that violence was used,” assured in Radio With You.
She also complained about the criticism she received after her first opinions on the subject – when she said that the former president “has all the characteristics of having exercised gender violence” – and listed some situations that Fernández had allegedly done against Cristina Kirchner.
“The comments I received for having expressed an opinion on a situation of which we are victims were a level of political violence that can no longer be acceptedthat the opinion of a woman is judged more than the fact itself, or than the opinion of a man; or that when that irresponsible celebration took place in Olivos First Fabiola was blamed and after that There was a minister at one time who said: ‘What was the President supposed to do? Beat the shit out of him?’“, he said, in relation to statements he made at that time Anibal Fernandezwith strong enmity with La Cámpora.
“I did not see any level of indignation as great as that which occurred 48 hours ago, when I spoke about A man who does not respect women, like Alberto Fernándezwhich He did not respect Cristina’s political leadership for being a woman and also having exercised political violence, Because a president in the exercise of his functions who uses his media operators to say that Cristina is crazy, that she is bipolar, that she does not let him govern… blaming her for his ineffectiveness, his irresponsibility, his lack of commitment and responsibility to the position he was exercising.“That is a violent man and one is in public life as one is in private life, and vice versa,” said Mendoza, in a strong attack against Fernandez.
He also indicated that Cristina Kirchner was in no way aware of these events, which – according to court testimony – would have occurred at Quinta de Olivos. “No one can condone violence, as is of course the case.” Cristina never supported and does not support a situation of violence. In some cases they want to link her up, as if she knew that the President could have these attitudes. How will he know? Do they really want to take a woman to this point when they tried to kill her in Argentina and there is no investigation into those responsible? Are they really going to try to strain and make things so tense that they want to put her in charge? “Are they trying to say that Cristina knew, that she protected him?” she said angrily.
Along those lines, Mendoza questioned the fact that the spotlight is being put on the former president for having chosen Fernández as a candidate in 2019, now that this complaint of gender violence has been made public.How can we possibly hold her responsible for what she does? She does? The election of Alberto Fernández in 2019, on Saturday explained it very well from Mexico: if she was a candidate, the Judiciary had a strategy to outlaw itwhile she was the Peronist candidate. We cannot blame Cristina for all the evils of Argentina, even for the gender violence of some irresponsible people.” held.
And he continued: “Somewhere, they are beginning to try to suggest that Cristina chose a violent person. In this country, having trusted someone is judged more than betraying a project, an electoral contract and a woman who elected him as president. [de Alberto Fernández] in these last few days It is the last straw of allreally, There is nothing belowHe betrayed Cristina, the militants, those of us who supported him, who spoke of him, who trusted him, who had hopes that he could make Argentina what we had proposed. We never ever imagined that he would be so irresponsible, I speak and I am outraged. It is more than despicable to exercise physical violence knowing that he was a person who could work within a collective, political project.”
The mayor then called Fernandez a “to be despicable” and he added: “He always makes himself the victim and blames others.”
On the other hand, she clarified that these comments had nothing to do with “political speculation” against the former president, but that she would do the same if it were against Mauricio Macri, Javier Milei or “the closest companion”. She also described what happened with Yañez as a “very painful” situation for her, but stressed the importance of bringing the debate to light, regardless of the power that the violent man has.
Mendoza also defended herself from those who accuse her of not having spoken out in other cases involving Peronism, such as the conviction for sexual abuse of the former governor. Jose Alperovich or the accusation that his counterpart from La Matanza has, Fernando Espinoza. In this regard, she said that La Cámpora and she personally always issued statements.
She then stated that Alperovich disgusts her and makes her “unworthy,” while regarding Espinoza she said: “Look for who spoke about that complaint, you won’t find many, one of them was me and we issued a statement.”
As for this last cause, it was detached from the visit that the governor Axel Kicillof He made the mayor a day after it became known that he had been prosecuted for sexual abuse.Ask the Governordon’t blame me, the women, La Cámpora, who were some of the few or the only ones who said something about this issue,” He commented on Melody Rakauskas’s accusations against Espinoza.
