Rodríguez Larreta responded to Alberto Fernández after the accusation by Favaloro: “It is a scoundrel to make that association”

The head of the Government of Buenos Aires described the association as “a scoundrel”

The head of Government of the city of Buenos Aires and presidential candidate of Together for Change, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, responded this Monday in harsh terms to the current national president, Alberto Fernández, considering that it was “a scoundrel” to make an association between his management at the head of PAMI and the death of René Favaloro.

Visibly upset, the opposition leader remarked that the President “went to hell” when, months before the next elections, he asked society not to hand over “power to those who took 13% of the income from the retired” the same year in which the remembered surgeon doctor committed suicide.

“Forgive me for saying it like that, but it was a scoundrel. There are limits in politics. In this search for votes there are limits, you can’t do anything, any slander, any lie to dirty the other,” he said during an interview with journalist Alejandro Fantino for his program Multiverso Fantino, which is broadcast by Neura.

In this sense, the Buenos Aires president said that these statements are part of “the Argentina that ended, the one of lies, aggression and violence.”

Alberto Fernández: “Let’s not hand over power to them”

“This is how we are, look, decades of violence, of aggressions. I took office in PAMI, which was the monument to Menem’s corruption. It was directed by (Víctor) Alderete, who is the example of a corrupt Menemist. The guy ended up in prison for the complaints that we made to him by his administration, ”he explained.

In this regard, Rodríguez Larreta assured that when he took charge of that social work, “there were zero papers, not a file, not a paper of anything that said how much he owed” the agency, for which he began “an audit process to verify all the debt that was claimed and a few months later, the tragic death of Dr. Favaloro, who is a hero to the country, occurred”.

“It really was a huge loss for science. Now, making that association is a scoundrel that Kirchnerism invented even several years after I left PAMI. What I tell you is that Argentina is over, ”she added.

When asked by the host of the program if he was planning to sue Alberto Fernández for these statements, the candidate for Together for Change replied: “The truth is that it was such a ridiculous scoundrel, no. There are limits, you can’t do just anything for the sake of doing politics”.

Rodríguez Larreta himself uploaded to his Twitter account the video with the fragment of the interview in which he responded to the head of state, who had criticized him just a few hours before, during an act that he led for Workers’ Day in Companies Recovered in the town of Lomas de Zamora.

“Please, let’s not hand over power to whoever took 13% of the income from retirees. Let’s not hand over power to those who ran PAMI when (René) Favaloro committed suicide. Let’s not hand over power to the irresponsible person who talks about freedom and changing the system, when he is the greatest defender of the unequal system in which we live”, the President exclaimed at that event.

That was the end of a speech that first aimed to highlight the value of the so-called “popular economy”, but then mutated into a fierce allegation against the leaders of JxC and other spaces that seek to succeed him in office.

“On December 10 there will be another government and it will be one or one of ours who will succeed me. What we have to explain to the Argentines who are disoriented and have reason to be concerned, because sometimes things do not go the way you want, we have to encourage them and make them understand that the problem is not inside, it is in front of them,” he told introductory mode, before fully attacking the opposition.
