Patricia Bullrich is compared to Jair Bolsonaro: "Brazil's anticrime law includes all the concepts we propose"

Patricia Bullrich he defended in a televised program the policies proposed during his tenure as head of the Ministry of Security when asked if he imitated some of the ideas of the President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro. Far from worrying about the comparison, the official said: "I think it's the opposite."

And he explained: "I have read by heart the anti-crime law presented (the Brazilian Minister of Justice and Security, Sergio) Moro. This law contains all the concepts that we have mentioned in Argentina. There is transparency, that is, quick judgments; the legitimate defense so as not to judge the police officers incorrectly; tougher sanctions for criminal drug trafficking organizations; the law of execution of the sentence … "

"All Argentine laws have already changed and Brazil has introduced a general law," Bullrich said.

"Why this coincidence? Brazil has had the same problems as Argentina. We had the world on the back, the world in which the abuser was taking care of the abuser and the neglected victim, "he added, referring to Kirchner's administration. during his participation in "Ya somos grandes", TN.

And he added, "We have been in government for three years and, convinced, we have changed the paradigm of security. We have gone from zaffaronism to a model where the victim and society are the center"

The minister illustrated her statement with figures: "We reduced homicides by 22%, car theft by 14%, cell phone theft by 14% and kidnapping by 70%. drug seizure and contraband increased sidereal"

Despite admitting later that "the difference between Argentina we want" and "what we are" is "very big"Bullrich badured that the government was following the "right path, and today, people understand it as well".

"Macri's decision to fight and defend the people, the victims and society benefits from support. Do we want to be better? Of course. Chile has a rate of three homicides per 100,000 population and we have a rate of 5.2. We want to be the first country in Latin America, "he said..

In another excerpt from the interview, the security portfolio manager discussed the case where a judge had ordered the release of a motorcycle in exchange for a payment of 700 dollars and had declared:We are introducing a new criminal code that provides much harsher penalties for complex and new crimes. The motorcycle figure was not expected in 1921 (year of entry into force of the current code). "

Finally, Bullrich again raised the controversy over the purchase of tasers by his ministry: he rejected that weapons can be used as elements of torture and says, "SI will always think that the security forces are not going to do what is right, give them nothing; we do not have police. "

"Now, if we give them a weapon, a salary, some equipment, it has to be adapted to each situation.Next week we will do a test and all the journalists in the country will be able to see how they are used. When it will be put into practice, we will see that it is much more appropriate (that the current system), "concluded the minister.
