After starring in a crossroads with the vice president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner in the National Senate during the special briefing of the Chief of Staff Agustín Rossithe senator and pre-candidate for head of government Martín Lousteau assured that the former president “She does not take charge of her past when she was President and she does not take charge of this Government.”
“Until recently, she said that you had to have a government plan, this government has a few months left, she is the Vice President, she proposed this president with a tweet. And she says that you have to have a government plan”pointed out the former Minister of Economy.
The leader of Evolución accused the former president of not taking charge of “inflation is galloping, the fiscal deficit continues, there are stratospheric rates to take on debt, poverty is rising, they are begging for dollars” and added: “He doesn’t take care of (Julio) De Vido, Lázaro Báez… you’re welcome.”
The former Minister of Economy starred in a meeting with Cristina Fernández de Kirchner this afternoon when the flag was about to be raised in the Upper House and Lousteau stated that there was no quorum. In response, the vice president replied, “You should have learned by now that you don’t need a quorum for a briefing.”
“They should learn economics,” the Evolution leader retorted, to which the head of the Upper House replied: “You taught me with 125.”
The moment was captured by a video that quickly spread through social networks and reminded the discussion that in 2008 it generated a political-ideological crisis with a purely and exclusively economic issue.
When asked about the crossing, Lousteau affirmed that “it was one of the many crossings” that has led in the Senate since Cristina Fernández de Kirchner took over the presidency of the body.
As for his assessment of resolution 125, he admitted it was his mistake to push it forward: “I was wrong. I thought at the time that I was going to be able to moderate the damage that (Guillermo) Moreno and her were going to do, but I should have resigned before”pointed out in dialogue with LN+.
