Anibal Fernandez said that attacks on businesses “are not spontaneous”

The Minister of Security of the Nation, Aníbal Fernández, referred on Wednesday to the attacks on businesses registered in the last hours in the Province of Buenos Aires and other parts of the country and considered that “they are not spontaneous.” In addition, he distanced himself from the accusation that Cerruti made against Javier Milei and his force.” I understand that it is not a coincidence, it is not an issue like the one we once saw because the needs were pressing and forced some to make decisions that perhaps they did not want to make, but desperation led them to it, “said the head of Security during a contact with the press at the door of the headquarters of the Ministry. On the contrary, that in these episodes “there was a vocation to generate some kind of conflict and we tried to prevent it.” Those who crossed the line were arrested and will be presented to justice,” he warned. In this context, Fernández announced that today there will be an “important meeting to continue evaluating the steps to follow and act accordingly.” We will have an important meeting with the heads of the forces to assess the formation of a specific command to deal with this issue,” he announced. And he added that so far “there is no reliable information to identify those responsible” instigators of the criminal acts. Yesterday, the spokeswoman of the Presidency, Gabriela Cerruti, pointed against Javier Milei and leaders of La Libertad Avanza. His message was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by President Alberto Fernandez. I do not have a conclusive element, an indication, that allows me to denounce it, I do not have it. If others have it, and take ownership of their sayings, they will know why they do it,” he added. The minister pointed out that “if there are things to claim, we must pay attention.” But he reiterated that the recent events were typified as “robbery in town and gang.” The minister explained that he is working in coordination with the provinces of Córdoba, Mendoza and Neuquén, and that last night he communicated with the governor of Rio Negro, Arabela Carreras, to act in the city of Bariloche; as well as in the province of Buenos Aires, specifically in the municipalities of Moreno and José C. Paz.Fernández remarked that “these are not people who loot to feed their families” and stated that, among those arrested, there are some who used “practically new” vehicles to go steal. ” There is a vocation to do harm,” the security minister insisted, adding: “We must take action on the matter, arrest those responsible and pay for it.”
