Mauricio Macri: “In 2017 it was okay to throw stones and now the Vice President is worried”

Mauricio Macri broke the silence after several weeks and made an extensive analysis of the situation in Argentina, the current situation of the national government, the opposition's possibilities of returning to power, the candidacies within Together for Change and was even encouraged to talk about future measures that the coalition should take if will return to Casa Rosada in 2023.

One of the most resonant phrases was when he referred to what happened in the National Congress during the debate in the Chamber of Deputies of the agreement with the IMF, that protesters attacked the facade of Parliament and broke the windows of several offices, including that of Cristina Kirchner, who denounced that it was an intentional aggression against her. To do so, the former president recalled what happened in 2017, when during his administration he discussed pension reform and the Congress was attacked with 14 tons of stone, as the opposition always remarked.

“At that time it was okay to throw stones and now the Vice President is worried. He didn't care about the cops either. I viscerally reject this type of violence, but it repudiates me that she takes the lead when there were 5 policemen who went to a hospital, two of them women. There are people who think that the police are not human beings, that they are there for misfits to attack them. This ends if those who do these things go to jail,” said the former president.
