Independent after the chaos: Moyano’s accusations and promises and closed doors until the elections?

The uncertainty is as enormous as the story of Independiente, that institutional and sports-wounded giant. Hugo Moyano, used to being the protagonist of conflicts at national level, he doesn’t seem willing to leave his post peacefully. And, according to the statements released this Saturday, it is feeding on a particular story. After all, something similar to what happens at the highest levels of government. A small reflection of Argentina, but red.

As if that were not enough, the fan who demonstrated on Friday among stones, rubber bullets and clashes with the police, maybe I won’t be able to go to court again until there is an electionwhich would be in September. Wednesday, when the Electoral Council meeting takes place, will be crucial. Even if there is skepticism. The opposition is wary of the leader of the truck drivers, who can challenge the sentence of Chamber III of the Lomas de Zamora Appeal Chamber until 10 August, which revoked the first instance sentence that prevented Fabián Doman’s list from competing.

Eduardo Aparicio, head of Aprevide, was energetic in the conversation with Clarione: “We risk nothing. If there are no guarantees, you cannot play on the Independiente field. It will be in a neutral stadium and closed doors ”. In this sense, the match that was to be played on Saturday afternoon against Atlético Tucumán will be played this Sunday at 11 in Platense. And since the next visitor to the Libertadores de América Ricardo Enrique Bochini will be River, no more, no less, the authorities want to know nothing. They believe that there will be demonstrations and accidents could arise due to the warlike atmosphere in the stands.

For the opposition actors, this measure is a favor for Moyano, a man with a weight in the political power structure and close to the national government. “I would not be surprised if this decision had to do with this, if it were a move to prevent us from demonstrating,” Juan Marconi told this newspaper. The young TV presenter is one of the most active opposition leaders. Without going any further, on Friday he was at the door of the headquarters, while the Assembly was held inside to discuss the 2022-2023 budget. He will be a candidate for the vice-presidency in the formula led by Doman and in which Néstor Grindetti, mayor of Lanús and one of the faces of the PRO of Buenos Aires will also be present.

It is no coincidence that the crack that dominates the country, beyond the growth of the third force represented by the liberals, dominates the scene in Independiente. Claudio Rudecindo, the third presidential candidate, supported this theory. “Matters outside of Independiente are being discussed,” he said in dialogue with Clarione. Moyano himself indicated that electoral struggle which is not something that excludes the red road of Avellaneda.
