“We believe the project and initiative of President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner will in the House of Representatives with considerable support,” he said.

The deputy said that this would not be possible without the “support of the opposition political forces,” and signaled that it is “clearly a significant finding when analyzing Argentina’s political.”
