The meeting that led to the bankruptcy of the UCR

Carbajalone of the main drivers of the breakup of the block.
Furthermore, the man from Formosa made statements in the afternoon: ”Today this rather sad fact of the presence of the president of the bloc in the Casa Rosada was added, almost imitating the photo that was taken at the time with the rest of the libertarian deputies, an officialdom overacting that the truth is not understood”.
”Personally, I understand that the block is broken. It was broken the day these deputies decided to become pro-government and now it seems that President Rodrigo de Loredo is in the same position. We are not willing to give the UCR block to the Government”, he had assured.
After the meeting is over, Rodrigo de Loredo -president of the block of Deputies of the UCR- He defined that the bench “is not exempt from a complex moment that all political spaces are experiencing.

From the sector that responds to Lousteau they assured: ”De Loredo did not go to the meeting to go to Rosada. And then everyone exploded.” And they added: ”The tension of the discussion increases because those of us who are fighting for unity see that from the other sector there is an unnecessary provocation when going to a meeting with the official blocs, almost to recognize that they are going over to the ruling party.”
