This morning, the independent deputy Pepe Auth He delved into the reasons he had for abstaining from the constitutional accusation against the former Minister of Health, Jaime Mañalich, which was finally rejected by the Chamber of Deputies by 73 votes against and 71 in favor.
“This is not an accusation that the opposition has presented after reflection and a decision. A deputy pushed her and barely got the last deputy so that he could present himself “Auth said to Dune in Radio Duna Point. “It is enough that ten deputies carry out an initiative to bring the entire opposition and the entire Congress into this discussion, which seems appropriate to me,” he added.
It should be noted that Auth was one of the seven who abstained, along with Loreto Carvajal (PPD), Pablo Lorenzini (IND), Fernando Meza (IND), Gabriel Silber (DC), Jaime Tohá (PS), and Daniel Verdessi (DC), abstained. While Pedro Álvarez Salamanca (UDI), Miguel Ángel Calisto (DC), Carlos Abel Jarpa (IND) and Manuel Matta (DC).
“Satisfied with what happened. It seemed to me, and it still seems absurd, to turn the fight against the pandemic into a major political conflict. I do not think it is appropriate that in the face of issues that we have to face as a united country, we make this inappropriate political polarization”, He complemented.
Auth asserted that “It really seemed nonsense to me in the context of the existence of many strategies in the world and that it has not yet been proven which is the most appropriate”.
“To hold the Minister of Health responsible for the deaths for not having followed a certain strategy as if there were only a recipe to face the pandemic, it seems absurd to me”, he expressed.
Regarding the constitutional accusation against Victor Perez, Minister of the Interior, assured: “Holding the Interior Minister responsible because there was a possible police abuse (he refers to the episode of Pío Nono), it seems to me that we took out the submachine gun with disproportionate ease.”
Meanwhile, Jaime Mañalich’s lawyer, Gabriel Zaliasnikstated in Let’s talk in Off of Radio Duna what “The accusation was untimely. If the right were applied, it should have been rejected by the table in the Chamber of Deputies before the draw for the Review Commission, but it would have cost them a vote of no confidence ”.
“The paradox is that he is accused of hiding data, in circumstances where what is done is an enormous effort to have as much data as possible,” he added.
