The senator of Town meeting (AC), Guillermo Domenechdeclared before the press that his party “the toad has swallowed many times” with the purpose of “assure stability to the Executive Power”. The lobbyist legislator turned on the inmate of the Multicolor Coalition by stating that people perceive that the National Party (PN) is the one in power, and not the government alliance itself.
According to Domenech, the country “He does not deserve the anxiety of a government that cannot govern” Therefore, CA will act “responsibly”, since “because the country and the people are above the party”, and, in the understanding of the legislator, “patriotism cannot be just a word”.
