“What we cannot do is back down”

This Sunday Patricia Bullrich He gave an interview with the channel TN of the Clarín Group. A good part of the conversation with Franco Mercuriali revolved around The repression of social protestwhich has the retirees and retirees as protagonists in front of Congress. And he spoke, among other points, what happened with the photographer Pablo Grillo March 12. Did you apologize? Did you promise to investigate and punish your criminals? Nothing of the sort.

As usual, the Minister of National Security shows again her impudicia When deploying A new string of lies with the sole objective of strengthening their repression policies, which in many cases reach (with ministerial guarantee) a more than worrying criminal act by federal forces. In other words, in the interview, none of his fallacies received any denial or questioning.

Bullrich He said that “he is trying to install the Wednesday issue”, in reference to the mobilizations in front of Congress. As if those protests, in which retirees and retirees claim to get out of poverty and destitution, despite being very silenced by journalistic companies were not already “installed” years ago. For her they are only “opposition” actions that seek to “hump the lives of people.”

In that sense, evoking her times of Minister of Labor of Fernando de la Rúaquestioned the unemployment of April 10 convened by the CGT . “Another day and a half without working?” He asked while assuring that, despite the force of strength, “people are going to work the same.” Almost A tarotist With the deck in hand.

A bar with ministerial range

Bullrich insists on installing its version (reproduced by allies such as TN) On the alleged appearance of thousands of “barrabravas” on the march of Wednesday, March 12. The misrepresentation of factsstigmatizing solidarity fans, with the passing of the days was categorically denied For specialized journalists who gave an account of the total absence of “bars” in the protest.

But she wants to die with her story. Ensures that “the level of criminals and barrabravas that there were in the marches is very strong ”and that of the hundreds of people who were arrested“ forty have a history, for example of armed robbery ”. However, still, still could not show society those “background” of those who make up the group of 114 detainees that day.

What abound are work that mobilizes a long time ago with retirees and that that day were “hunted” to volley. As Alejandro Todarodoctor of Hospital Laura Bonapartewho related in detail The daily left how was attacked by the Federal Policeirregularly arrested and released hours later for lack of evidence.

Provocative, Bullrich He says that “99 % of those who are there are not retired, retirees stay at home.” The statistical fallacy It seeks to minimize the fact that, for a long time, hundreds of older adults are planted in front of Congress. But at the same time it despises the fact that those who march without still retired, earlier or later, will be. How it costs him to get out of ridiculous.

In the interview, Mercuriali He wanted to throw him a center to see if he could be more philosophical. He asked who sent the bars to Congress and quoted his colleague Nicolás Wiñaskywho had assured that many “were paid $ 50.000 to break everything. ”However, the minister chose to be A little more cautious What days ago.

After the facts of 12, its officials filed a criminal complaint against the mayors of La Matanza and Lomas de Zamora. Loose papers, they ensure that the Ministry could verify that from the headquarters of those municipalities Micros full of armed barrabravas went to the congress. They even say that “There are videos”. But in all this time they showed no evidence. This Sunday, in TNnor did he mention that complaint.

“Who sent them?” He insisted Mercuriali. “That’s what we are seeing,” he replied Bullrich. And he escaped through the tangent by stating that they have “many complaints and, as we have done on other occasions, we will investigate them. Justice, in the complaints that we had already done when the pickets (sic) people began to speak, and speak, there are many that are already coming to trial, as is the case of (Eduardo) Belliboni“. amalgam It is only necessary when You don’t have much truth to show.

THE MIXADITO OF THE MINISTER

In another round of thread, Bullrich He tried to link those who march on Wednesdays with facts effectively starring Barrabravas, such as those that occurred last week in La Plata in the middle of the dispute over the driving of the local section of the Uocra. A bid that has as main protagonists Iván Tobar and al “Pata” Medina. The first leads the bar of Students And the second has as an ally to “Flying” Camillerileader of Gym.

Both bars have close ties with the mayor Julia Alak and the governor Axel Kicillof. Something that the minister takes advantage of her cartoon. “When (in Congress) we see the bars to which two weeks later we saw them destroying a hospital in La Plata we say ‘Who pays this? What interest is here?’ He asks, despite the fact that Neither Tobar, nor Camilleri nor any of his subordinates called to march.

Despite the electoral use of the case, curiously Bullrich praised the Minister of Security of Kicillof. He affirmed that Javier Alonsocontinuator of the management of Sergio Berni“He is a very reasonable person, who works thoroughly and has a look.” What is needed, he says, is “put online and order everything, the prison service, laws, justice.” A very interesting philosophy.

Maldonado to Grillo

Another of the centers that the journalist of TN to her interviewee refers to “Antipiquetes protocol” and the consequences of its application. “Is the right to protest guaranteed, to claim in front of Congress?” Mercuriali. “Of course, within the guarantee that the company has to have and to get to work without eating three or four hours of travel,” repeats the minister.

Then his interlocutor mentions Pablo Grillowho faces a difficult recovery after a tear gas tube launched by Gendarmerie He left his head while working with his camera covering the repression of Wednesday 12.

“Do you worry that, as a result of an operation, there is a victim and that, in addition to the life that is lost, there is a flag like that of Santiago Maldonado To search too Generate chaos in government“The news animator questioned” Sagaz “.” Of course there is a concern, but What we cannot do is back down and allow disorder, ”he spit Bullrich.

And he added that “it always worries to have to Use specific weapons for manifestationsriot, but society also has to know that we guarantee the 46 million Argentines who can circulate, live in A country in peace where there are not a few to take the street. ”

One more time, justifies that their operations can cause serious injuries and even death of protesters. But also lie againwhen it awards the damage inflicted to Grillo in the mere use of “specific weapons for manifestations.” As established by international jurisprudence, the out of the protocol of calls “Less lethal weapons”like the gas that hit the photographer, they do directly lethal To those projectiles.

Bullrich He wants to get out of the subject. He knows that, as in 2017 before cases such as Santiago Maldonado y Rafael Nahuelhis unconditional defense of gendarmes, prefects and federal police collides in front of the evidence. The Film and photographic reconstruction of the episode in which Grillo It falls injured that he was a direct victim of A murderous attacknot of a mere collateral effect of an “riot” action. Its legs are increasingly short and the string of misrepresentation are increasingly helping you.

Last week Fabián Grillo He said that, in addition to being busy in the recovery of his son, he should battle against all official fallacies and misrepresentations. “With all those lies they continue to hit Pablo”, Said interviewed by Ernesto Tenembaum in Cenital. And he added that the spokesman Manuel Adorni lied in saying that the family had “cut the link” with the government. “We cannot have cut what ever existed, they never communicated with us.”

This Sunday the man reported in dialogue with the site Part of the air what “Pablo is already handled by his own means” and “the evolution it is having is amazing.” He also claimed the professionals of the Ramos Mejía that attend your child: “The public hospital is admirable”.

“It is shown that all they said was absolutely a lie and that, as more videos appeared, They were accommodating that lie with a new lie”, Grafico the father of Pabloconvinced that at some point Bullrich must answereven criminally, for everything you are doing.

Fabián Grillo You are also convinced that repressions of Bullrich have Much more method than improvisation. “I lived in front of Congress in 2017, when we march against retirement reform, with rubber bullets), with him, they threw his glasses, that is, they threw up the height of the view,” he recalls.

Las Deaths of Maldonado In Chubut and Nahuel In Río Negro, both in 2017. The Fernando Gómez in December 2024 and the Ivo Torres This year. All at the hands of gendarmes and prefects that “fulfilled their duty.” Protesters with woundssome irreversible, in eyes, heads, backs, legs and genitals, when he ruled Macri And when he governs mercy. And a cluster of liessome turned into criminal causes against workers and workers who commit the “crime” of going out to fight.

The record of Patricia Bullrichthe most barrabrava of all, which ensures that it will not “back.” Something that It remains to be seen.
