Asunción: The country blazes amid citizen demonstrations calling for the resignation of the President of the Republic, Mario Abdo Benítez, and the impeachment announcement by Liberal MPs, while Honor Colorado takes time to decide.
The MPs take all the time in the world to examine further changes that are being made by the current government, but at a kind of snail’s pace in order to buy time on their part.
The extent to which the protesters’ criticism is directed against Honor Colorado became apparent when the ex-president was paid an unexpected visit twice, which was broken up with water cannons and rubber bullets.
The President of the House of Representatives, Pedro Hercules Alliana, said he would not support impeachment proceedings, but he still awaits the indictment the Liberal Party is preparing for later this week. You can also evaluate the new ministers when they are appointed. For Honor Colorado, the government is still corrupt. So it is not surprising that Honor Colorado itself supports the manifestations, as they gain the most with the change of ministers.
There are also many entrepreneurs who are calling for an end to the protests so that peace can return and one can produce and sell again. However, Paraguay and Abdo and its non-corruption-free environment have two more years ahead of them, including a negotiation of Itaipú that can run completely out of control with ministers who should be fired after scandals and who were ultimately promoted.
In addition, there are pro-Abdo demonstrations, of course by politicians and their relatives, for whom a change of government would cause a hole in their wallets. Above all, Miguel Cuevas, who was accused of unjust enrichment, showed himself to be strengthening his back in Paraguarí in the Abdo. The only thing missing is the inciting of the Mennonites in the central Chaco to undertake similar relief efforts.
