Gustavo Melella: "If you have to judge me, let them do it, but let them win me at the polls"

Gustavo Melella, radical K and steward of Rio Grande, reached an agreement under the forge agreement so that seven parties join him, including those in Kirchner's profile.

He is widely accepted in his city, which has been nurtured by a plan of public works. Faced with two alleged legal claims for "badual favors" in exchange for a job and alleged cartelization of public works. He badures that this is part of a campaign to discredit the provincial government to get it out of the political struggle and warns of electoral maneuvers aimed at harming it.

– What could hurt him tomorrow?

-The party in power challenged at the last minute the agreement on the summation of votes and asked that it be invalid. It is a political maneuver to embarrbad and disturb. It's an attempt at fraud to harm us. We are waiting for justice to be resolved.

-What are the main proposals for the province?

-The recovery and the creation of additional jobs resulting from the expansion of the productive matrix. Obtain access to land, housing and a quality health system, which we do not have today. And we will continue the unrestricted defense of sovereignty over the Falklands.

– What would your plans be for the future national government?

– Whatever the government, must sit down and explain that Tierra del Fuego is a strategic location for the development of the South Atlantic. All that natural resources and Antarctica involve as a productive and peaceful area. And ask him to accompany us in these measures to grow.

-Why is the Fernandez-Fernández formula compatible?

-It's the best because he has a vision of development, equal opportunity, return to consumption, national production, defense of the industry, what we want for our province.

– What makes it different from Governor Rosana Bertone?

-Any difference us. We were still in the same ideological space and it was not. Bertone represented the largest adjustment, reduction and freeze in the province's salaries for three years. He borrowed uselessly 200 million US dollars. He destroyed the institutions. We have always stayed in the same political space with ideological principles.

-The housekeeper questions her alliance with Movimiento Popular Fueguino (Mopof) and the Loffler family …

It's part of the campaign. They question our agreement with Mopof and she remembers the death of Garramuño, Senator of the Movement, who used it as a flag. It must hide many sectors that accompany it. We have an electoral agreement with Mopof.

– Does this affect the choice of the national Kirchner?

-Our alliance is with the inhabitants of Tierra del Fuego. We do not need people from Buenos Aires to support us. The former president did not support Bertone, it was only Alberto Fernández, and I think that has to do with this great support agreement to the Peronist governors.

– Do you think that the judicial complaints against you will play against you?

It's part of a strategy to let us out. They would have first addressed the justice and not a descent in the media. It is clear that there was a lot of power and money. A complainant said that he had lied. It has been proven that he had received a home from the province's security secretary for his daughter and had acknowledged it. There is a political operation behind this. I have always been available to justice. If you have to judge me, judge me, but if you have to win an election, go to the polls.
