translated from Spanish: The surprise of Sergio Massa when learning the formula Fernandez-Fernandez

“I just found out about the formula, so I can’t speculate on that,” said surprised Sergio Massa when asked about the nomination of Cristina Kirchner as Vice president and Alberto Fernandez as president. I have respect for Alberto, the stage that comes will need a lot of dialogue and they will find me in that way, ‘ anticipated Massa. “Alberto worked a lot around our space and we have a critical look, I don’t think he has changed about many things that the previous government did, and that doesn’t change,” he said.

Massa also referred to the letter he sent to President Macri 10 days ago and remarked that he sent another about the call to the agreement with the opposition. “I sent it a while ago and more than waiting for an answer I think all Argentines are waiting for it.” Mr President, it is time to abandon the frivolous, marketing and electoral propaganda, and to take on the commitment of a real, comprehensive and inclusive dialogue to bring the country out of the crisis that millions of Argentines live. That’s the way to stand up Argentina. That is the way in which I pledge to defend all Argentines and Argentines who want an alternative that gives them back the values and rights that their failure to remove them, “Massa wrote. The most important points of the second letter from Massa to MACRI : To determine and make public a calendar of meetings, with dates, topics and actors. There is no real dialogue without a clear agenda, without a timetable. More
That includes all the political actors. The dialogue has to be open, without exclusions, and with joint, non-bilateral meetings. We must leave the differences and prejudices behind and put the country ahead. Argentina needs a real, comprehensive and inclusive dialogue.
Also to convene trade union leaders and representatives, business and social. They cannot stay out of this dialogue either; When there are two digits of unemployment, an unprecedented industrial crisis and a poverty of more than 30%.
That includes critical and urgent issues for the points to be discussed. Poverty, unemployment, salaries, retirees and SMEs cannot be lacking in the discussion of an economic and social agreement, focusing on immediate and urgent measures to resolve the plight of the country.
That recognizes their failure and the serious consequences of their decisions and policies. The dialogue needs a real and sincere diagnosis of the crisis that is going on in the country and that requires, inevitably, a dose of self-criticism.
