Flag and saucepans: protests in the Obelisk, the Quinta de Olivos and in different cities of the country against judicial reform

With criticism of the Government and the project of judicial reform presented by the president Alberto FernándezThousands of people demonstrated on Saturday afternoon across the country, in a flag that was convened through social networks and it had an epicenter in the Buenos Aires Obelisk.

The hashtag # 1AYoVoy quickly became a trend and minutes after 16 the Argentine flags were flying in different cities of the country and the pans were also heard in front of the Quinta de Olivos​.

There were many who, without getting off their cars, came to the main monuments of Rosario, Mar del Plata, La Plata, Córdoba and Bariloche, among other cities, to question the Government.

Among them, the deputy of Together for Change, Fernando Iglesias, who published photos on his social networks and said he was leaving “against justice reform and the impunity plan“.

“There are people who are in the Government, elected by the people, who want to scrub in Justice, as they did in the other 12 years they were there,” one of the protesters questioned in statements to C5N.

Another of those who approached the Obelisk was the head of the pharmacists union, Marcelo Peretta, who pointed out that “judicial reform may be a necessity, but it seems that it is not good for the president to raise it in the midst of this problem of health and also not to intervene in other things like Vicentin​”.

“I want to live in a country where the division of powers is respected, and to live in freedom,” emphasized a young woman who came walking to the epicenter of the main popular demonstrations in the City, amid the deafening noise of the horns.

Another of those who arrived at the emblematic Buenos Aires Obelisk pointed out his criticisms to Vice President Cristina Kirchner: “This judicial reform is made to benefit many corrupt people,” he said, referring to the president as “Alberto Fernández de Kirchner.”

Another of the places chosen to launch criticism of the Government was the presidential residence. In Olivos, hundreds of people cut part of Maipú Avenue: “What they want to do is run over, they want to raffle and sell the country,” one woman told TN while hitting a saucepan.

The judicial reform project was not the only focus of the questions, since many protested again against the quarantine and the government’s decision to extend it until August 16.

Shortly after the start of the mobilization, the hashtag that called the march was the main trend on Twitter.

The one that took place this Saturday in different cities of the country was the third protest in the last month and a half, after the massive mobilization against the advance of the Government on the Vicentin cereal industry and the one of July 9 last, whose motto was “freedom “
