“It is part of another time, of another Argentina that no one wants or voted for anymore,” said presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni. The violent warning was made today by Edgardo Llanos, head of the Aeronautical Personnel Association


Manuel Adorni, on threats to senators


It is part of the delirium that is experienced in Argentina .” With that phrase, the presidential spokesperson, Manuel Adorni , repudiated and replied to the threat from the aeronautical unions , who urged the national senators to “scramble” to vote in favor of the Bases Law in the Upper House, where the discussion will begin this week. of the project promoted by Casa Rosada.

We are going to explain to the passengers every time one of these senators travels that they are betraying the popular mandates ,” warned Edgardo Llanos, head of the Aeronautical Personnel Association, in the middle of the assembly held by the workers at Aeroparque on the morning of today.


Asked on FM Delta about these statements, Adorni stated: “The escrache in itself must be condemned, no matter the political strength. It is a practice that has to disappear in Argentina. "I don't know if they understand well how a republic works, with the three powers that function independently."


And he added: “The threats are from other times, from another Argentina that no one wants or voted for anymore . We have to stop getting puffed up, especially when talking about a public company like Aerolíneas, and that many of the Argentines who directly or indirectly support it with their taxes have never traveled by plane and probably will not be able to do so in the near future. "We must have more respect for Argentines, for taxpayers."


Along these lines, the official maintained that " a different Argentina is not made by threatening, stopping or scolding ," while highlighting the need to "put cold feet and understand that people chose something else."

In the midst of the protest that forced flights to be rescheduled this Monday, Llanos urged senators who support the Government to “scratch” when they board an Aerolíneas flight. This protest took place four days after the general strike called by the General Confederation of Labor (CGT).

The general secretary of APTA (Aeronautical Technical Personnel Association) , Ricardo Cirielli, had also been very critical of the legislators who voted in favor of the sanction of the Bases Law promoted by Javier Milei's government.

They played a double game with the DNU, they have annulled the air trade policy law , 19,030, the points that forced the national State to finance the Argentine flag line, they opened the skies in the nine freedoms of the air, which which means that Chilean planes can come with Chilean registration and Chilean crew, in such a way that neither Aerolíneas nor any other national company will be viable and there is an astonishing silence from everyone,” he stated.

“Of the 109 deputies who voted against, only 2, a Chaco native and Julia Strada defended Aerolíneas.” They delivered it to Chile, Ecuador and next week it will be to Peru, the Argentine skies, she explained.

There is a claim that is repetitive, which is to defend Aerolíneas Argentinas. Because the policy that Milei is applying is the same one that Menem applied. Airlines has already been privatized twice, both privatizations failed and it will fail again ,” explained the leader.

He also maintained: “ We are asking the senators to be aware that we must defend the communication that exists with the provinces and with all the needs that exist in the interior of the country. And we are telling the radical bloc that they betrayed their ideals by supporting the Bases Law .”

“We are going to do everything possible to defend Aerolíneas Argentinas, so that they understand that this Government is emptying the country. Opening the skies in the aeronautical part is like opening imports, because foreign companies are going to come and take the passengers and the dollars ,” he concluded.
