The senator Esteban Bullrich gave his version after criticism you received on social media for using, supposedly, a background with the image of his own face to leave the meeting without being noticed.
“Very simple, the virtual background of a game we had made with my son had been hooked “, said. “I hadn’t gone anywhere, I was following the topic. I think you have to focus on what is important and not let the tree cover the forest, “said the senator from Together for Change this afternoon, in dialogue with radio La Red.
In that sense, he referred to the process that the ruling party in the upper house of the judicial reform promoted: “What happened yesterday was another chapter of this shameful judicial reform, they drew an opinion that is not known. I regret that we talk about the anecdote and not from the fund, “he said. Yesterday, the Frente de Todos gave the green light to the bill to reform the federal jurisdiction that the Executive Power sent to Congress on July 30, between crosses.
The journalists who interviewed Bullrich insisted on the issue of the Zoom, and the senator replied the same: “There is not much more to say. When I entered there was a photo with my son of a game we had made. It was not out of the zoom. If you see it in its entirety, from the moment I enter, I disconnect the microphone and turn on the camera, I appear “.

He then referred again to the political agenda: “This has just begun, and the position of the people of 17A became clear. I am taking advantage of this, to tell people that this reform was not going to cost anything, and it costs two billion pesos. And to that we must add the infrastructure, “he said.
The Senate yesterday held a plenary session through the videoconferencing system used by the pandemic. When they gave the floor to Senator Bullrich, it took a few seconds to start speaking and then, behind his figure, you could see the image that had been placed in the background during the previous minutes. The outline of “another Bullrich” could be seen in the background.
The capture of that moment circulated on social networks and many interpreted it as a visual trick to leave the meeting without being noticed. After the commotion it generated in social networks, the former Minister of Education explained that he usually turns off the camera during the debates in committee. “I was there, but here we are seven [por su familia], so I turn on the camera only when I’m going to speak. That image remains because I had put a background before, “he said, in dialogue with Radio Con Vos.
“If you go through my participations, I am permanently active, with which I regret that this causes us to distract ourselves from the important debate that is judicial reform,” he added. In the afternoon, he talked about the game with his son.
