President's Office has begun in recent days offer some signs of moderation for now are gestures almost imperceptible to the public, but significant for certain political and economic actors.
Last Wednesday, on the occasion to announce a bill to limit the purchase of land by foreigners, Cristina Kirchner had called to unionism to control strikes and protests over wage demands, as well as emphasizing that "the conflict can not ruin the model." Yesterday, when meeting with the leadership of the CGT, led by Hugo Moyano, the first president of the union claimed they moderate their claims for higher pay.
The union called on can only have one explanation. On the eve of an election, the government does not want conflict or want additional inflationary pressures that cause national authorities themselves. Quite
Kirchner suffered political costs and conflicts with the rail union, shortly before the death of Nestor Kirchner, resulted in the death of the young militant of the Partido Obrero Mariano Ferreira, or, on the eve of last Christmas, led a day of rage at the station Constitution.
The President knows that, if elections become more hotly contested due to the simplification of the opposition offer beginning to take place, any incident or at least not as least as a cutting routes or streets motivated by a union protest, negatively affect his electoral chances. There was
data last week that should not go unnoticed either. At the same ceremony in which Cristina Kirchner announced the legal initiative on land sales, the Government invited a good number of entrepreneurs. And, beyond controversy that might have awakened the draft, the President gave signs of reconciliation there, at least in his diagnosis of social reality, the prospect of not a few business leaders, such as the Industrial Union of Argentina ( UIA).
Using comparison charts between Argentina, Mexico and Brazil, he suggested that our wages were delayed for the other two countries, while pointed, somewhat dramatic, in Santa Cruz lost $ 300 million following A recent union conflict, such as the oil.
President is likely to be viewing a new political scenario, in which the central struggle is with Ricardo Alfonsin if, as some expected, Mauricio Macri decides to leave the race to the Casa Rosada.
In this hypothetical context, it is true that Cristina Kirchner and Alfonsin played an electorate like, akin to the call center progressivism. But the central figure would be how both candidates will appeal to the broad swath of center-right voters who would leave the absence of Macri orphan.
Thus, if verified predictions that account for a new electoral scenario, with fewer major stakeholders fighting for the presidency of the nation, it is not improbable that moderation should become the best business.
