Carrió announced that he will not be part of the Santa Fe Front of Fronts: “There is complicity with the narco”
The pre-candidate for president for the Civic Coalition, Elisa Carrió, announced today that her party will not integrate the so-called “Front of Fronts” that was formed in Santa Fe to confront the Peronism of Omar Perotti and assured that there is “complicity” of local opposition leaders with sectors of drug trafficking and money laundering.
This is a high-impact decision made by the founder of Juntos por el Cambio, a month after the registration of the electoral alliances and in the midst of the acute security crisis resulting from attacks by drug gangs and mafia threats, even against the in-laws of Argentine idol Lionel Messi. In addition, it is announced shortly after Mauricio Macri arrives in the city of Rosario, where he plans to present his book “Para Qué”.
“This has nothing to do with Mauricio. It is a wake-up call because what is happening is serious”, qualified party sources told Infobae. They also separated Senator Carolina Losada, who is mentioned as a possible candidate, from the accusations. But none of the other front-line leaders of the local opposition.

The decision was communicated by means of a video after a lunch with the former national deputy for the same space in Santa Fe, Lucila Lehmann, and according to those informants, it was resolved after receiving information about the opposition’s links with the world of drug trafficking and money laundering. “It is impossible to integrate the Front of Fronts and maintain an old complicity that destroyed Santa Fe, beyond the political cost that must be assumed,” said Carrió in the video.
Lehman herself, this afternoon, in dialogue with Infobae warned that “Santa Fe today is a drug state, because drug trafficking crosses politics, the Judiciary and the Legislative Power.” In addition, she warned: “There are sectors that have governed the province that are responsible for the establishment of drug trafficking in our Santa Fe.”
“The Province must be cleaned up and that cannot be done with the same people who were part of the problems we have today,” said Carrió, who avoided giving names of those mentioned. In the Front of Fronts all the lines of the UCR, PRO, Socialism, provincial parties, neighborhood parties and even some Peronists coexist. Since 1983, only the PJ and the Socialist Party governed. Socialism is one of the main partners of the Front of Fronts.
“We are open to integrating all people of good faith and principles from all spaces, especially those independent from SMEs, from the agricultural sector and all Santa Fe people who want something different for their province. We have to start a different path for Santa Fe,” he added.
Lucila Lehmann, former National Deputy and President of the Civic Coalition of the Province of Santa Fe stated that “drug trafficking crosses all the powers of the province and being part of that is impossible for us.” “Our duty is to shed a light of hope for Santa Fe. We have a province with great export potential and a great desire to move forward, and we have to aim for that, but against the mafias,” she added.

“Santa Fe is taken over by drug trafficking and money laundering. We have to clean up Santa Fe”, affirmed Carrió. “If it is not cleaned, the province has no destiny. I cannot go through or endorse a Front of Fronts in which I know that there are many people linked to the drug trafficker”, he affirmed.
The Santa Fe Police is accused of having ties and relations with the drug world.
Carrió’s decision to broadcast the video with these explosive statements was made, as Infobae was able to learn, after Lehman gave him a detailed report on the situation in the province. Last night, both were at a dinner with SME businessmen from all over the country, with whom they analyzed the political and economic situation that Argentina is going through. The former deputy spent the night at the house that the leader of the Civic Coalition has in Exaltación de la Cruz and this noon they resumed the dialogue, but alone.
Due to the seriousness of the data, the leader of the Civic Coalition announced the break with the Front of Fronts, which the polls anticipate will win the elections, due to the bad image of Perotti and the security crisis that does not stop and the deaths daily activities carried out by criminal gangs.
