Solá threatened to leave Federal Peronism
Argentina, January 18, 2011.- Felipe Solá threatened this morning to leave the Federal Peronism if presidential candidates are elected in an “authoritarian” way rather than “maintain a national discussion.”
Solá refused the proposal of Eduardo Duhalde and Alberto Rodriguez Saa to choose the candidates before the internal primaries to be held in August.
“The time of the warlords is over,” Solá said. “This seems to me an internal absurd, it isn’t serious. It’s outside the law with the pattern of old parties,” he said.
The congressman added that he was not consulted on the proposal and that bothered him much: “It should not be announced that way, because we were not consulted at a meeting long and deep as it should be. We learned from the newspapers. I received the call from Rodriguez Saa when it was announced.”
In his opinion, the other politicians of Federal Peronism want to evade the primaries. “This is because they do not want the August 14 elections; because that date people are force to vote and that means that we can be voted by millions. It frees candidates from having to have structure, money and buses. I think that’s much more representative for the Federal Peronism,” Sola said.
