The interim president of Bolivia, Jeanine Áñez, denounced this Wednesday to the UN the “systematic harassment” of the “Kirchenista” government of Argentina and has called for a definitive end to “caudillista” and “authoritarian” populism.
In his speech before the General Assembly, Áñez has denounced the “abusive” harassment to which Bolivia is subjected by the Government of Argentine President Alberto Fernández, whom he accuses of acting against the institutions and “republican values in Bolivia.”
Although she has said she has “nothing against the noble Argentine people”, the president has warned that “the populist castes”, such as Argentina, use “frankly abusive” methods to support their plans, power and their positions, “contrary to freedom”.
“Argentina is a nation that we value and love a brother the way you love a brother. We have nothing against Peronism, which we value as a political tradition, the popular national tradition, the driving force behind enormous achievements in the social modernization of Argentina,” he said earlier. to insist that he does not “have any rancor against other governments such as Havana” even though there are no “ideological” coincidences. “We maintain due respect and courtesy, which mark the relations between two sovereign states and between two peoples united by history,” he insisted.
In this sense, he has accused Argentina of “meddling” in Bolivian politics, especially by “protecting a violent conspiracy by (former president) Evo Morales against Bolivian democracy.” “What is the authority they have to offer Morales impunity in cases as serious as the investigations (…) against him for human rights violations, violations against minors or complicity in political assassination?”
Thus, he has sent a message to the Government: “Kirchnerist populism knows that the Bolivian nation is not the private property of any caste. We are a sovereign and respectable people. Bolivia is respected. Bolivian democracy is respected. The Bolivian people are respected.”
