The governor of Chubut, Ignacio Torresand the president of the block of deputies of the UCR, Rodrigo De Loredotoday they rejected the sayings “dangerous and deeply disrespectful” from President Javier Milei about the alleged “bribes” that some legislators would receive to reject the DNU and the Omnibus Law. They urged that “proceed to report and investigate them».
In an extensive text on his X account, De Loredo assured that “the President’s statements are not going to intimidate our behavior” and considered that the UCR is “in the position of giving the government the legal tools it needs to carry out its government plan without excesses and without leaving the most vulnerable sectors of society like our retirees defenseless”.
