“Neither snout, nor little gentleman, simply an inhabitant of the neighborhood concerned about the fate of a Nation that I consider as many in our country.

Thus replied the former Minister of the Interior, Jorge Burgos, the column of the Argentine ambassador in Chile, Rafael Bielsa, published today in El Mercurio.

Through a letter to La Tercera, the former DC deputy referred to the extensive response of the Argentine representative -which he titled The comedian Burgos-, who in turn reacted to a text published by the former Secretary of State last Saturday in this newspaper, entitled Professor Fernández.

“Professor, less Zoom giving prescriptions, improve your international advisers, less wear and tear trying devices to prevent justice from punishing the corrupt, even if your ruling duo is at risk. It is not going to be something that ends up looking like the master of tango “Chorra”, teacher of truncheons“Burgos said in his column, in which he criticized the trans-Andean ruler.

In his response known today, Bielsa – in addition to informing that he is currently infected with Covid – points out, among other things, that “The lawyer Burgos affirms that President Fernández referred to the episodes of October 18 with” … something like ‘I knew it was going to happen.’ That is plain and simple a lie. “

Faced with the words of Bielsa, Burgos points out in his letter to the director of La Tercera: “The ambassador in Chile of the Argentine Republic answers in yesterday’s edition of El Mercurio a column that the undersigned published in the newspaper of his address on Saturday just passed. The first thing is to wish you a prompt and full recovery from the COVID contagion that affects it. There can be no doubt that the Ambassador has the right, perhaps the obligation, to answer a critical column of the management that Alberto Fernández has been executing, neither surprise nor annoyance on this side. The diplomatic representative has been an active part of the long years that Kichnerism has governed. The results are in sight, the statistics do not lie, the situation is dramatic and it will not be easy to get out of there with public policies in practice. Neither snout, nor little gentleman, simply an inhabitant of the neighborhood concerned about the fate of a Nation that I esteem like many in our country, and that has been put by its rulers in a difficult trance”.
