From the Plaza de San Justo, at the beginning of the communication Juan Romero said: “I am here, we as an organization are part from the beginning of this initiative against hunger that the Milei government is taking to all workers. We from the workers’ party, who were in all the meetings, stated that it had to be supported because Route 4 is provincial and is a jurisdiction of the Province of Buenos Aires, the anti-picket protocol does not apply.”
“So until today it was not possible to know what the national government was going to do. We could assume that the national government, which ignores many of the current laws, could have had a whole repressive protocol, which is what happened,” he added.
He also pointed out that “we know that the provincial government effectively pressured the organizations that are part of the Unión por la Patria organization to not carry out this action of struggle” and that “we see it as very bad, that is why we at Polo Obrero supported the action.”
The struggle against the government
In this sense, the councilor added: “I am with the comrades, men and women, who should do what I understand, all those who are against Milei’s adjustment. If we say that a chainsaw is being used, we have to defend the interests of the workers.”
“As there was a huge illegal operation by the gendarmerie and the federal police on Route 4, we gathered at the San Justo roundabout, we marched along Route 3 with a roadblock to Arieta, and we came to the Plaza de San Justo with thousands of people,” he said.
He then stressed that “this is not only an action by the Workers’ Movement, but that it was supported by SUTEBA, the tire union and other combative sectors” and that “we had the political consideration of avoiding repression because we did not want that, but we looked for a way to defend an action of struggle, to combat hunger that this government is promoting and to be present here.”
“There is nothing operational here, more than a usual police cordon that is put in place when there is a march in front of the Municipality. But there are no repressive operations here in the surrounding areas, that is why everything is very calm,” he clarified.
Javier Milei’s acid analysis of his administration
At the end of the article in No Te Duermas, the left-wing leader said: “Milei’s policy modifies the conventional political regime because it cuts democratic freedoms. And it cannot be that we workers have to stay at home, we have to find a way to continue demonstrating and defend our rights.”
“It is a government that takes away medicines from retirees who have already had their salaries taken away, and cuts back on them again, and if we do not take action out of fear, the government will defeat the working class,” he said.
To conclude, he mentioned that “Milei’s government is only strengthened because it has an employer opposition that grants it one measure after another and every thing that they think of imposing or proposing” and that “in the National Congress with the laws, in the street absenting themselves, the CGT delivering the claims and sitting down to guarantee that it will do nothing.”
“It cannot be like this, we must defend the actions of struggle wherever we can because it is of enormous value to do so,” he concluded.
