The senator and presidential candidate for National Party (PN), Jorge Gandini, pointed against the Mayor of Montevideo, Carolina Cosse, by describing it as “the Uruguayan Cristina Kirchner”, in reference to the former president of Argentina, in the midst of the controversy over the celebration for the 300 years of the founding of the capital.
Gandini questioned the accuracy of the date taken by the Montevideo Municipality and, in dialogue with Radio Oriental, he linked the event to “the electoral campaign”, at moments where cosse She is a presidential candidate for the Wide Front (FA).
When asked about the tricentennial celebration announced for this year, the senator noted: “It doesn’t surprise me, Carolina Cosse It’s ‘I do what I want’, it’s Christina Uruguayan, is ‘I don’t care about the law’. She did it with Antel Arena against the Court of Accounts, against the Accounting Office, against everyone.”
“We all know the entire historical process that Uruguay he always recognized the 26; “There are tributes, there are coins and there are events,” said the PN candidate and compared: “It’s as if I started celebrating my birthday nine months before.”
Gandini accused the mayor of Montevideo that the celebration this year is “a whim that makes it fall during an election year” and warned: “On the 26th we will celebrate again, because that is the real year.”
“It seems to me that he forces things a lot to his whim to have a reason to spend a significant amount of money that makes many people in the capital happy, during an electoral campaign,” the legislator compared and assessed that “this must also bother the other candidates of the Broad Front, because he is using public resources for his candidacy.”

Through a message on their social networks, titled “heading to catastrophe,” Gurmendez I consider that cosse “supports the confiscation, that is, the theft, of the individual savings of Uruguayans in the AFAPs that guarantee future retirements,” stated the Colorado leader after supporting the plebiscite of the PIT-CNT by the FA pre-candidate.
Regarding her comparison with the former president and former vice president of Argentina, He reviewed that “he ruined the system of retirements and led his country to the worst social and economic crisis in history”, and then concluded that cosse “He proposes to do the same,” arguing that “there are no two interpretations: that means signing for this plebiscite.”
