The internship in the Argentine government has intensified again in the last hours but, unlike what happened in previous chapters of the tense battle between Albertism and Kirchnerism, this time the dispute would not lead to new casualties in the national Cabinet. This was revealed by sources close to the Minister of the Interior, Eduardo “Wado” de Pedrowho was harshly targeted by his partner from Social Development Victoria Toulouse Peace as a result of the criticisms that the official would have made against the president Alberto Fernandez.
“It is a good time for Wado de Pedro to clarify what he said to the president,” the former candidate for mayor of La Plata and He suggested that if he is uncomfortable in the national Executive he should “step aside”.
The harsh sentence of Tolosa Paz revived the internal official party and several officials and leaders came out harshly at the crossroads of their statements. The president of the Cultural Institute of the province of Buenos Aires, florence saintoutwas one of them and even accused her of being “anti-Peronist.”
In what is already beginning to be seen as the beginning of the electoral race, the discrepancies within the Frente de Todos are beginning to gain strength, but those around the Minister of the Interior made it clear that he is not considering leaving the Government, according to what was published The nation. “That’s it, it’s clear what happened, that’s it”responded in this regard one of the collaborators of the official.
The alleged discomfort of De Pedro, which sparked the new clash, was because the president did not include him in the meeting that the president had with the head of state of Brazil, Luiz Inacio “Lula” Da Silva; and various human rights organizations. “On Monday, on the occasion of Lula’s visit to the country, the president organized a meeting with his Brazilian counterpart and different human rights leaders at the Casa Rosada, and despite the history of militancy in the area that Wado de Pedro maintains as his son desaparecidos and founder of HIJOS, Alberto omitted to invite him because he sees him as a competitor for the next elections,” They pointed out in the environment of the minister.
Tolosa Paz was the one who picked up the gauntlet of that questioning and harshly dispatched: “It is not very clear to me if it is an off-screen information from the minister or from his environment. If they were statements by the minister himself, I think it is a good time to clarify if it is a media transcendence used for some purpose. It is a good time for Minister De Pedro to clarify whether this happened or not because they put in his mouth a situation such as lack of codes. If there is a lack of codes, in any case it is in reference of those who are part of a government and criticize the government,” remarked the national official in what was the first open response from the presidential environment to a Kirchnerist minister.
