Next Monday, June 5, the main leaders of Together for Change They will have an important meeting. They should discuss and give an answer to Juan Schiaretti about whether they accept him in the political party or not. This movement could add some votes to the macrista space but it was a hard blow for Juan Manuel Urtubeywho was putting together a list for the presidency with him and Florencio Randazzo.
The former governor of Salta He acknowledged that “at some point both raised the idea of the need to form a broader front, just as a general idea.” However, he clarified that he will not join the space led by Mauricio Macri because in his vision “what matters is to form a space outside the crack, not to be in a space to be against another.”
«I do not agree with putting together a front of different parties to be against another“, the leader reiterated. Following this, Juan Manuel Urtubey admitted in a dialogue with Clarín that “this is a blow that obviously hurts us. Part of the members with whom we thought of building something different decided to join something that we believed had to be overcome, “he lamented.
In this same sense, they asked the former provincial president if, in the event that they reject Juan Schiaretti and Florencio Randazzo, he would form a party with them again and his answer was forceful: «It is complicated. It is very difficult to be the “B” side. It would be a second option“, criticized the man from Salta, who will now have to rethink how this blow overcomes his coalition space.
Does Juan Manuel Urtubey maintain his candidacy?
As a result of these political movements, Urtubey began to evaluate what he will do with his political future and although he regretted that he was left alone, he clarified that he has “the conviction that a Peronism that serves Argentina must be strengthened. The rule must be reversed: a Peronism must be built that serves Argentina and not an Argentina that serves Peronism.
«We need Peronism to understand the problems of the 21st century. I do not deny my Peronist identity. I want to help, for example, that Peronism befriends the sectors of economic development. We have more strength in electoral terms than Schiaretti and Randazzo but with less structure, we have a lot of parties that are working with us. From my logic, I’m not interested in the candidacy. I want to discuss a country agenda. Argentina needs to grow and not adjust. There are no discussions of ideas in the country », he closed.
