by 24 hours after the general strike and the mobilization to Congress called by the CGT, with the support of La Cámpora and leaders of Unión por la Patria, the Ministry of Security warned the labor union this Tuesday that It is not authorized “to ensure, authorize or restrict any type of circulation.”
The statement issued by the portfolio headed by Patricia Bullrich comes after the CGT reported through a note that, in accordance with what was agreed with the City of Buenos Aires, they will guarantee “the circulation of Firefighters, Ambulances, cars with emergencies and the entrance and exit of fronters along the entire route” of Avenida de Mayo, where they will travel.
At the same time, in radio statements Pablo Moyano had warned that it is “impossible” to mobilize all those who will attend the march without blocking the streets.
“By virtue of the statement issued by the CGT, it is clarified to citizens that the union group does not have the capacity It is not even enabled to ensure, authorize or restrict any type of circulation“, they indicated from Security.
The Bullrich ministry highlighted that “the government authorities are the only ones with the power to carry out such controls, which will be applied under strict control and in accordance with the guidelines already notified in a timely manner.”
Meanwhile, they confirmed that the anti-picket protocol is in force. “It is absolutely prohibited to cut any artery or circulation route,” they stressed.
In that sense, given the force measure called by the CGT, the Ministry of Security ratified that “in order to ensure the right to circulate and move freely “For anyone who needs and desires it, the aforementioned protocol will be applied by the competent organizations.”
The Bullrich portfolio recalled that “a strict control“of the micros affected to the march, there will also be controls in the train stations and in the concentration itself of protesters.
“It’s found It is absolutely prohibited to cut the artery or road of any circulation,” the ministry warned in its statement.
As anticipated ClarionBullrich met with his team this Monday to draw up the fine print of the planning of the operation, which will have characteristics similar to the one carried out on December 20, in the march that the leftist social movements made to Plaza de Mayo, which ended up being controlled by security forces.
Due to its ability to attract people, representatives of the Government’s security area know that a CGT mobilization historically moves many more people than those carried out by other groups that go out to protest.
In that sense, following the sayings of Pablo Moyano, who anticipated that there will be 40,000 truck drivers who will be on the street, The march is shaping up to exceed 100,000 people, taking into account that they also adhere to other important unions that are grouped in the labor union and political spaces such as Kirchnerism and the left.
The CGT agreed with the City Government how the mobilization will be
Looking ahead to Wednesday’s mobilization, last Monday Héctor Daer, co-secretary of the central office and head of Health, Andrés Rodríguez of UPCN, and the Buenos Aires tandem of Waldo Wolff, Minister of Security, and Diego Kravetz, secretary of the area, met.
The meeting was on good terms and a way was sought to coordinate Wednesday’s operation. Both sectors, in that sense, respond to a more dialogic and consensual line compared to the pyrotechnics that arise from the intersections between Pablo Moyano, the most combative leg of the CGT, and Bullrich, who emerges as a much harsher version than Wolff or Kravetz.
“Everything was impeccable,” was the summary of a voice heard at the meeting, in which it was agreed that the union members would present a written proposal in which they had a commitment to respect a series of requests made by Buenos Aires security.
The statement from the labor union confirmed the agreement with the City to organize this Wednesday’s event. In that sense, they highlighted three points that came to consensus with the Buenos Aires Security area.
“May the companions They will enter through Avenida de Mayo from Avenida 9 de Julio towards the Plaza de los dos Congresosguaranteeing the circulation of Firefighters, Ambulances, cars with emergencies and the entry and exit of fronters along the entire route,” they wrote from the CGT.
“We request install the box on Entre Ríos street and from there carry out the event towards the interior of the Plaza de los Dos Congresos, leaving circulation space on Avenida Entre Ríos,” they added.
“We also request the City authorities to exercise strict control over the actions of the security forces operating on site in order to guarantee the peaceful development of the act without incurring provocations and/or attacks,” they closed the text.
