Social Movements in Argentina Express Support for Government

Published 16 September 2021 (7 hours 27 minutes ago)

Argentine social organizations led by Movimiento Evita expressed their support to President Alberto Fernández amid the internal crisis that broke out among the different sectors that make up the government coalition after the defeat in last Sunday's primary elections.

They also made a call for a mobilization called under the slogans "Fuerza Alberto" and "for the unity of the Frente de Todos," scheduled for Thursday afternoon.

A dozen movements that are part of the Union of Workers of the Popular Economy (Utep) are expected to join at 15:00 local time.

The union secretary of the Union of Workers of the Popular Economy and president of the Federation of Worker Cooperatives Evita, Gildo Onorato, said that the objective in this very critical moment is to show the popular support to President Alberto Fernandez and to mark the need for unity in the Frente de Todos coalition.
