The minister Carolina Stanley slept less than usual and pending his cell phone. But until this morning he kept his decision not to receive social organizations, which for almost 24 hours cut Avenida 9 de Julio with an overnight stay in front of the Ministry of Health and Social Development. "He will not receive them. They are extortionists", said sharp in the environment of the minister.
Since yesterday, militants and picketers of Polo Worker and Front of Organizations in Lucha (FOL), the two groups with greater force, settled on July 9 with requests for greater social assistance, in the midst of the debate over the food emergency that other movements led to Congress, in a day crossed by marches and street cuts.
Throughout the day, there were contacts and meetings between ministry officials and representatives of organizations that did not come to fruition. For the Government, the street conflict is embedded in the electoral campaign. "They want to be intermediaries and we work directly for people", stood out near Stanley.
"Budget items were always available to reinforce food assistance. They will continue to be as they have been until now," they expanded.
The Casa Rosada is not willing to show more fragility than it has since Mauricio Macri lost the primary four Sundays in front of Alberto Fernández and his administration was immersed in a political and economic crisis that had no record in these almost four years.
But even from the ministry itself they were responsible for highlighting before this medium that the day of struggle that was still debated by the action plan this morning was not fired by the PJ. And that Juan Grabois, the leader of the Confederation of Workers of the Popular Economy (CTEP), who made an alliance with the Front of All, worked at this time with "responsibility."
The social leader marched with his group to Congress, where he promoted, together with other organizations, the draft declaration of the food emergency, an initiative that they share with the CGT, the CTA and the Church, among other institutions, and which the Government rejects.
Although there are positions found. While the Kirchner in Deputies sought at this time to give the parliamentary discussion, there were voices in Casa Rosada who realized that the initiative could have a green light. There are those who believe that the UCR, which is part of the government coalition together with the PRO and the Civic Coalition, could accompany the project.
"The food emergency is in the current social emergency law. There is no problem if they want to expand it," they said at this time in the ministry.
For the Government, last night's camp was organized and lashed out by the most radicalized fronts: the Polo Fbrero. Eduardo Belliboni, of the first, he was one of the interlocutors during these 24 hours. In the case of the FOL, its leader could not participate in the discussion because he was in Iguazu. He cut, along with other activists, the entrance to the national park and prevented the access of tourists.
From the Government they assured this morning that near noon the protests were going to begin to be deconcentrated, after the camps got up and folded to a march of teachers of Chubut. And that they were going to leave the street without new plans or promises.
"It's a political fact. They want to see if they get more plans, and as they see they can't, they're going to leave.", stressed from the Government.
"Before Christmas, these same organizations made a large camp for a day and a half. They were offered the opening of dining rooms and new snacks. We transferred the money to a civil association of them, and they could buy and distribute food in dining rooms. It was a semi-annual agreement of $ 2 million. They never presented a paper. "
