The attack on vice president Cristina Kirchne arouses an almost unanimous rejection of the political spectrum and of all sectors of the economy. Every minute rumors continue to be added against what happened on Thursday evening, which apparently did not end in tragedy more by chance than anything else. Last night, Martín Guzmán, Alberto Fernández’s former Minister of Economy, reacted with some speed. Other press releases have also been added, such as that of the Central Bank, the Argentine Industrial Union (UIA) and CAME, among others.
Former Economy Minister Martín Guzmán wrote last night: “The attack on the vice president is intolerable and aberrant” the attack suffered Thursday night by Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner when she arrived at her home in the Recoleta neighborhood of Buenos Aires.
“The attack on the vice president is intolerable and aberrant. Expression of hatred that prevents us from building a common destiny, caused by a systematic discourse of denial and exclusion “Guzmán posted on his Twitter account.
The former official added that “It is an obligation to create the conditions for peaceful coexistence“and expressed solidarity with the Vice President.
Soon after, Miguel Angel Pesce, the head of the Central Bank, spoke. He did so by signing with his signature a declaration that encompasses the entire entity. “The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic expresses its opinion strong rejection of the attack against the vice president of the nation, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner “, reads the short letter.
The CAME (Argentina Chamber of Medium Enterprises) expressed itself via Twitter: “Hate and violence only destroy and distance us from the path that all Argentines want to build”.
“From CAME and our more than 1,500 associated entities we express our solidarity with the Vice President of the Nation @CFKArgentina and we strongly repudiate what happened“, concludes the announcement.
Very early Thursday, the Argentine Industrial Union was one of the first to repel the attack. “The UIA expresses its strongest repudiation for the attack suffered by the vice president of the nation, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner”.
CAME also added: “We industrialists ratify our commitment to peace dialogue and grassroots consensus which will allow the country to move forward. This is why we invite all sectors of society to put an end to antinomies and to keep debates in the framework of Democracy ”.
The Argentine House of Construction (Camarco) also had a quick reaction to express an absolute repudiation of the fact. “CAMARCO expresses solidarity with the vice president and urges the company to preserve peaceessential for life and democracy “, they indicated.
IPA industrial SMEs also condemned the assassination attempt and warned against an attack on democracy. “Reflect on the importance of avoiding conflicting speeches” and they join the calls for “sincere dialogue without half measures”, they indicated.
“The Association of Banks of Argentina (ABA) expresses its strong rejection of the attack suffered by the Vice President of the Nation, Dr. Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and stands in solidarity in defense of the values of democracy and against any manifestation of violence “, indicated by the financial sector.
The entity was another of those that claimed social peace. “Respect for the various political expressions in the context of dialogue and republican order are inalienable principles for our Association, which must be defended by all the actors of the country”, he said.
The declaration of the General Confederation of Affairs of the Argentine Republic (CGERA) added: “In the democracy that we have been able to build, this type of event cannot be admitted., our country must never again take the path of violence. Sowing hatred has these results. The discussions on the country model that we want must take place in the field of politics ”.
“In Argentine history, concentrated economic power has not hesitated to use any means to impose its ideas”, they indicated. And they added: “What underlies the attacks that the former president has suffered is the discussion on the collective development project we want for our country, which is reflected in the 12 years of industrial growth and distribution of wealth”.
IDEA, on behalf of all its business partners, “strongly repulses” the attack on the vice president and has expressed solidarity with her and her family. “These acts of violence are unacceptable and contrary to the country in which all Argentines want to live”they indicated.
“We trust that Justice will act decisively for the timely clarification of the facts and we invite everyone to dedicate themselves to the pacification of society”, they concluded.
