The national representative of La Libertad Avanza (LLA) Lilia Lemoine pointed against his peer Marcela Pagano due to the internal conflict unleashed in the party by the appointment of the presidency of the Impeachment Commission that led to the breakup of the bloc in the Lower House. “It was her mistake“, stated the legislator interviewed by JOsé Del Rio in Small Table by LN+. “There were people trying to contact her and she didn’t answer the phone.“, held. He considered that those who benefited from the internal dispute are the deputies of the Kirchnerist bloc, who seek to stay with that commission to “remove the President.”
“If the commission is not formed, it cannot have a president. The mistake was Pagano’s for going to announce to the media a presidency that he did not have“, Lemoine said this Friday night and asked himself: “Which candidate or deputy who is nominated comes out to announce it? I was nominated for the technology commission and I didn’t come to say it. I said I was not interested knowing that there were several who wanted to preside over it.”
In that sense, he continued: “She says that her political boss is [Javier] Milei… Don’t tell me? And who is mine? I’m here for him. She got confused. “It was an incompetence.” He reflected that it could have been a mistake given that they are “new to politics,” but insisted that there are rules that must be followed. “Martin Menem He is the president of the chamber. He is not Milei. Milei is from the Executive, we are Legislative. If you suspend it even a minute before, you are entitled to do so. I was at the door and said it was cancelled. The secretary came in and said there was no session and they decided to continue,” he recalled.
Along the same lines, he warned about the advance of Kirchnerism regarding presiding over the commission: “The most enthusiastic were the Kirchnerists who do not want us to have that commission.” “People who perhaps don’t understand it or don’t feel it because it doesn’t fit into their daily lives, But if Kirchnerism had that commission with more than 100 deputies, it could remove the President of the Nation. They want to impeach the President. “They insist,” she considered.
“We are not fighting“said the legislator and added in reference to Pagano: “There was a difference. She was wrong, not the whole block. The authorities will be voted on next week.”
In turn, he assured that the problem is not that the journalist is not trusted to chair that commission, but that “we trust Bertie more [Alberto Benegas Lynch]”. “We are not afraid to be friends to work together. “He was wrong, period,” she said.
The internal conflict unleashed in the libertarian bloc led to a break. The president of Deputies, Martin Menem, decided to remove ownership of the block from Oscar Zago, who was replaced by Gabriel Bornoroni. Zago later stated that he intends to form his own bloc called Integration and Development Movement (MID).
Asked about it by José Del Rio, Lemoine gave his opinion: “Zago wants independence in his block. I would like him to stay. I can’t imagine Oscar opposing the Government. But the MID is a departure from radicalism. But this is something that happens in all blocks. “Anything we do is going to be visible.”
