After the meeting of Legalist Party (PJ) Buenos Aires this Friday, where due to a possible lack of agreement it was decided to call internal elections for March, the outgoing president and leader of La Cámpora, Maximo Kirchnersent a message to the Peronism of Buenos Aires Province. He explained that he preferred it “Build before you deal with clutter” and assured that in the PJ – where his sector maintains differences with the governor’s room Axel Kicillof– “There is a conflict between persisting and overcoming.”
Kirchner -dem his mandate is expiring – chaired the recent PJ summit in Buenos Aires, where it was decided that elections would take place on March 15. If a unified list does not come about, both sectors could face each other. Following the event, the leader gave an interview for the streaming channel TV legs. “There is a date so that members can use the vote if there is no agreement. For me, being politically active is more important than managing berets. It may be a flaw or a virtue, but I don’t like to build on the basis of construction that ends in one,” sending a message to the inner Peronism that began some time ago.
In this context, he anticipated what could happen in the coming months. “What is to come for Peronism in Buenos Aires is a period of discussion and debatebut more on the nominal question of who is there and who is not, if there are issues that I am happy about, it is not that I dragged out the Peronism of Buenos Aires to vote for an agreement with the International Monetary Fund that has implications for the entire province of Buenos Aires and the suburbs. Nobody can do it alone. “I think if you believe in groups, it’s about complementing each other.” held.
Always in this vein, Máximo Kirchner noted: “There are more and more electoral leaders and fewer political leaders. With this growth in electoral leadership comes a decline in those who focus more on technical and specific management issues. The election campaign is about management and politics.” “I’m not doing this out of personal ambition.”
“I think the challenge is, even if one election, two elections, fills our faces with fingers, to have the calling to power and transformation and not the question of permanence. There is a dispute between permanence and transcending, I am closer to transcending than to permanence,” Kirchner said. The legislator went to interview the suggestive T-shirt with whom he led the summit: “They play with me first and then with me too“, a phrase from the song El Tesoro de los Inocentes by Indio Solari.
In another section of his statements, he appeared to convey another message to the prisoner. “There are people who want to be there, and one day they can say: ‘Live for Cristina’, another day ‘Live for Pirulo’, and they go through life like that. ‘Cristina or nothing’ and then ‘Cristina nothing’.” “It’s not out of resentment.” he insisted.
On this topic, the legislator concluded: “What lies ahead is a great challenge. We will always bet on a reunion.” in pursuit of the interests of the people.”
Tensions between La Cámpora and the sector headed by the governor began a long time ago, and although there were meetings to calm internal tensions, the tender was reopened after Máximo Kirchner’s mandate expired. Afterwards Kicillof is betting on the Buenos Aires PJ openingwhile its bishops support demands from allied mayors far removed from the party’s leadership.
As LA NACION reports, the provincial leader does not participate directly as a member of the Buenos Aires Justicialist Party, but through his deputy governor, Veronica Magariowho in turn is vice president of the PJ.
Before the meeting this Friday, Máximo Kirchner sent through Federico Otermin And Alejandro Dichiaraa message clarifying this will not counteract Kicillof’s aspirations to become a presidential candidate if La Cámpora retains the presidency and the party’s electoral board. From La Cámpora they propose that the deputy regulates the succession in the governorship of the province – where Peronism has greater chances according to the elections in September – and that the governor points to his presidential project of the “Right to the Future” movement.
From Magario’s side, meanwhile, they responded with a request for internal elections and the opening of registers, as agreed at a summit before the meeting attended by Andrés Larroque, Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez, Jorge Ferraresi and Fernando Espinoza.
Without an agreement, information continued to circulate about the possibility of internal elections on March 15th. If unity proves impossible by then, La Cámpora and the mayor’s and Kicillof’s sector will face each other in an internal struggle that could be decisive for the future of Kirchnerism in its main bastion and in the face of the elections in 2027.
