While a spokesman for the Christian Social Reform Party (PRSC) said there would be no rally on February 27, Pedro Botello, a leader of the march demanding the release of 30% of pension funds, said he was already ” o fact accomplished “.
The PRSC emphasizes Botello regarding the celebration of a demonstration that he announced for the next National Independence Day, but the deputy denied that he can be stopped and even deactivated by the appeal.
“I am not the owner of the call to the demonstration, it is a decision taken by all the coordinators of the groups in the fight for 30 percent. I could make a proposal for reconsideration, but I would not dare to ask them to give up a demonstration that is intended to take place on the 27th “, said Botello.
However, ahead of Botello’s statements, PRSC spokesman in the lower house, Máximo Castro, said it had already been decided to suspend any February 27 demonstration.
“It won’t happen, Botello won’t. There will be no act that day. We, the bloc and the party, are already meeting with Botello and there will be no protest on February 27, “Castro said.
But it was not only Botello who said that the march was going well, if not that he revealed that he would not attend the National Assembly for the traditional rendering of accounts.
“I will be and I apologize, because I will not be in the assembly hall, I will be in front of the Congress with the protesters,” Botello said.
At the same time, he said that the only way to stop the march is if the President of the Republic meets with the workers.
“I suggested that the only thing that would stop this march would be for the president to meet with the workers before this date. He received everyone except the workers, “he said.
