Martin Tetaz And Julio Piumato They staged a heated confrontation in the middle of a debate about the Labor reform that tries to promote the government of Javier Milei and the Role of trade unions currently and in the proposed regulations. The discussion was so tense that the show’s moderator had to intervene between them and end the debate.
The CGT’s former deputy and human rights secretary were invited to the program this Monday evening Another round In All news (TN)led by Diego Sehinkmanand the tension between the two began when the union member mispronounced the economist’s last name, who immediately corrected him and continued when he spoke about the joint negotiations and the Labor reform.
Martín Tetaz: “It is not possible to reform labor market institutions if it continues to be very expensive for the employer to hire new employees”
Authoritarians don’t like that
The practice of professional and critical journalism is a mainstay of democracy. That is why it bothers those who believe that they are the owners of the truth.
“The majority are nominal increases. In many cases.” They charge a commission to achieve a nominal increase that is below inflation. “They get the same commission, which is equivalent to an armed robbery,” said Tetaz, to which Piumato replied: “That’s a lie. When the salary council is discussed, we do not sign. Don’t lie.
The former MP continued his explanation about the role of unions in salary negotiations, pointing out that they sometimes act like this Monopolieswhich the union member asked about Why is there “such a rush to pass the law”? and there is no national debate.”
“We’ve been arguing for years”said the economist and added: “One of the topics of the reform is the flexibility of the working day. We have been discussing this for four years.” “Everything against the worker”claimed the Secretary General of the Nation’s Union of Judicial Employees.
After an initial intervention by the show’s moderator, the heated debate continued with the former lawmaker’s reference “Solidarity clause”which he described as a way to “get into the worker’s pocket” and continued: “It is the part of the salary that they takethe employee is not connected. The constitution states that the union must withhold part of the employee’s wages. With the law, the employee will have freedom.”
“Where does it say that you have to be a slave, they want to make the worker a slave? What freedom are you talking about? Freedom from starvation, from freedom from being thrown out for nothing?“Piumato asked, his tone already raised.
In response to the union member’s response, Tetaz said, “But they take the money from the union and give it back to the worker.” The law gives you a raise. Who gets the contribution today?” “That’s a lie. They want slavery in Argentina“They want prison,” Piumato replied.
The key points of the labor reform presented by the government worry workers
“You want to keep the employee’s money“They want the union members to keep the workers’ money,” launched the CGT human rights secretary, to which the economist accused him of not caring about the national constitution. Given the tension, Sehinkman intervened again, joking: “I’ll put up a fence like barking dogs.”
The driver’s attempts at peace were in vain, and the unionist continued to claim that the government was trying to “crack down on workers’ rights,” launching: “They are obviously authoritarianBecause They have no interest in violating the Constitution“.
“The money would be taken from the union and returned to the worker,” the economist tried to explain, saying that Piumato “wants slavery and that the union members keep the worker’s money.” Immediately afterwards, Sehinkman stood up from his seat and stood between the two guests to break the tension.

Tetaz and Piumato were already facing each other, pointing their index fingers at each other and making light physical contact, and the economist was heard saying: “Don’t be disrespectful. “I won’t allow that,” the discussion escalated. “You don’t care about the Constitution“You don’t care at all,” the union leader insisted.
“I will not allow you any lack of respect“Don’t get lost,” the former lawmaker insisted, claiming: “I didn’t question your honestydon’t be out of place.He says I am stealing the workers and what is that? . “You have values for a few,” said the union leader.
To end the situation and ease tensions in the studio, Sehinkman concluded: “I will send out a batch. I have a rifle with a tranquilizer dart. “You’ll see the result after the round.”
