00:00Jorge Macri announced a series of reductions in different areas of the state.
00:08He said that this would allow 13 billion pesos of the budget,
00:14but above all, a curious detail, at least to those of us who were listening to the speech early in the morning,
00:19which said that this was going to simplify a number of procedures for the people who live in the city of Buenos Aires.
00:26So we have it on a mobile phone to the head of government, Jorge Macri Graña Le Habla.
00:31Good morning, how are you? Good afternoon, rather.
00:35Rolando, good afternoon, how are you? How are you?
00:37Well, I heard early today about the figures, but I would like to stop at the examples.
00:45What examples of simplifications of everyday life will there be in the city of Buenos Aires?
00:50There are many procedures. Procedures that we have eliminated, which are also taxes that we have eliminated.
00:58For example, taxes on stamps for leasing, for credit, for mortgage loans.
01:04We have put a lot of gross income activity for professionals at zero rate.
01:11I mean, once you're at zero rate, you don't just have to pay the tax, but the whole process simplifies.
01:19We are making refunds of gross income balance. This is part of what we announced last week.
01:26And today, Wednesday of this week, there are 20 companies that have received in their account the return of those gross income balance,
01:34which was typical to hear that people waited 6, 8 months, 10 months.
01:39The guide was needed to work and was retained in the state.
01:43In 96 hours, once they make the presentation, almost 95% of those who pay gross income are reached for this benefit and have automatic refund.
01:54Throughout last year, we made a reduction of the expense of 535 billion pesos per year.
02:05And how do we know if that, because the right word and the word reduction of expenses,
02:13at a time when there is no money, as President Milley says,
02:17well, how is this going to affect the quality of education services, hospitals?
02:25That's very important, what you just said, because what we do is reduce political spending without giving less services.
02:32This is very important. In fact, let me give you some data.
02:35Last year, 2,000 more police officers entered the city of Buenos Aires.
02:39Or, for example, we had 1,000 more surgeries in the hospitals of the city of Buenos Aires per month.
02:45That means, the middle class, which used to not attend the hospitals of the city of Buenos Aires,
02:51that today attends the hospitals and that also in a surgery.
02:54And I speak of a surgery not to talk about consulting, because surgery involves hospitalization, involves a high expense.
03:00We have had to serve more people, we have expanded the number of early childhood centers, of vacancies in kindergarten.
03:08We have given free English to more than 180,000 Portuguese people through the free platform we have.
03:15With which we have given more services, and that is real efficiency.
03:18So much is spent on politics.
03:20Because saving light, saving light, turning it off is easy.
03:23So much was spent on politics.
03:25No, it's not just politics, it's efficiency too.
03:28No, no, sometimes it is to spend better.
03:31And there are 13,000 million pesos.
03:33It is to open up to the competence of others.
03:38In these decisions that I communicated today, there are 13,000 million pesos of savings.
03:43In things that were done in a duplicated way, in things that were not priority, in reducing the number of directors in organizations.
03:52Yes, more money is spent than it should be.
03:55And we are very clear that we have a commitment, I assumed it in the campaign and I will continue to sustain it,
04:00which is to reduce the expense of politics without having less state.
04:05Because here is something that is important.
04:07We believe in the state when the state cures, when it heals, when it gives us security,
04:12when it has a presence of quality in the public space, when you have better lighting.
04:17We believe in the state.
04:18Now, we also believe in a state that affects less.
04:21And lowering taxes is also very important.
04:23And we have lowered many taxes.
04:25Last week we announced more than 300,000 million pesos of tax cuts that benefit 500,000 Portuguese.
04:33From the decrease in pension benefits to, as I told you before,
04:37zero rate to non-professional activities that used to pay gross income, for example.
04:42Yes, I can't stop asking you about what happened this morning,
04:46at least it was known this morning, which is the tragedy of another city police officer,
04:50killed in the back by motorcyclists.
04:53It is the thirteenth in a year.
04:59It is the thirteenth.
05:00Of the last 14, as Javier said, of the last 14 fallen in compliance with the service,
05:0713 were killed leaving and coming from their home in the urban area.
05:11In other words, let's think that they are all day in the city of Buenos Aires fighting crime,
05:16arresting criminals, making raids and they kill them leaving and coming from their home.
05:22So much so that as of last year we communicated a measure,
05:27which is to allow the police, if they decide so, to wear their own vest.
05:34Because in the city of Buenos Aires, luckily, we have a police vest,
05:38not like in the province where there is a hot vest,
05:40so a police officer has to take it off so that the other can use it.
05:44And we told them, use it to go home.
05:46We ask you, please, to take care.
05:48Because the truth is that a few days ago we had five confrontations
05:52on the same day by police officers in the city of Buenos Aires, in the province of Buenos Aires,
05:56and unfortunately yesterday they killed Officer Coria.
06:00So all the support to his family and the force,
06:03because this impacts a lot on the police force and hits us all.
06:07Is there any other measure, any conversation with the province of Buenos Aires to prevent this?
06:15It's just that it's very difficult, Rolando,
06:18because how many times did you hear Kicillof talking about security?
06:23No, in general he talks about his Minister of Security.
06:26It's not a priority for him.
06:29Yes, and little, and the truth is little.
06:33And I see that they throw the burden on the mayors,
06:35the mayors do what they can, some better than others,
06:38some with more commitment than others.
06:40In fact, when one analyzes the security indexes
06:43in municipalities where there is commitment from the mayors,
06:46it is quite noticeable and the numbers are different.
06:48Well, you were vice-mayor of Vicente López,
06:50you know well how to discuss with the province of Buenos Aires.
06:53Yes, exactly, I know well.
06:57I know that problem well, I know what it is about,
07:01and I know how difficult it is to govern a district
07:04when there is no political decision from the governor to give this discussion.
07:07It is not an agenda issue,
07:09but it is for many sectors of the guarantor justice,
07:12and that is why it is so important, Rolando,
07:14the discussion that the national government has just installed
07:16and the opportunity we have to approve reiteration
07:19in extraordinary sessions.
07:21It is of very high relevance,
07:23and I will try to explain it very quickly.
07:26For a criminal to have as aggravating
07:29the previous sentence that occurred in Argentina,
07:32there has to be a firm sentence.
07:34You know well, Boja, that this takes seven years in Argentina.
07:38Or ten, even worse.
07:40So they have all that time to continue with Boja,
07:42committing increasingly violent crimes.
07:44The reiteration is like the yellow in football.
07:48A yellow, then it is red, and you wait for a detainee.
07:51The Boja is over.
07:52This thing that there is no firm sentence, no.
07:55Once I give you the chance to make a mistake,
07:57you made a mistake twice, you wait for the detainee sentence.
08:00That, that, so simple,
08:03to be able to have yellow and red in this, in the crime,
08:06changes everything.
08:07That is why it is very important that people take advice
08:10about what is going to be discussed in these extraordinary sessions.
08:14Especially in the type of crime that is more linked to consumption
08:19and to people who do not control their behavior.
08:22To say, well, once the yellow, the other,
08:24you wait for a detainee until it happens to you.
08:26Because in practice, that would get the criminals out of the streets.
08:33That's what we need.
08:35Let's see, today I tweeted in the morning,
08:37today we arrested a criminal 21 times.
08:40It means that we arrested him 20 times before,
08:42they still leave him in freedom.
08:44A month ago we arrested one that we had arrested 28 times.
08:47When you see the notice, Rolando,
08:49it is not chicken theft.
08:51It is armed robbery, sale of narcotics,
08:53resistance to authority, gender violence,
08:56climbing to enter a property.
09:01We usually say here in the newsroom
09:06that justice does not wake up until there is no dead.
09:13Yes, and it wakes up for a while.
09:15Because you know what the problem is?
09:17We, those of us who have executive responsibility,
09:20we walk the street and we are known.
09:22Those who make mistakes, many times not.
09:24So, how is that lax interpretation of the law
09:28and leave them in freedom with great comfort?
09:31And since no one knows who was the guarantor judge
09:34or the prosecutor, according to the jurisdiction,
09:36who made that decision,
09:38the concrete diagonal to finish with that joke is reiteration.
09:42And there is a fundamental opportunity
09:44and we have to put positive social pressure on Congress
09:48for this law to come out.
09:49It is as important a clean sheet as reiteration.
09:51Yes, and after it is not denaturalized
09:54through the procedure codes.
09:59In other words, it is a modification.
10:01The procedure code that is later denaturalized
10:03in the small letter.
10:04Of course.
10:07Of course.
10:08But we are weighing the discussion.
10:10If I caught you stealing once and stealing again,
10:13it's inside.
10:14There is no interpretation.
10:16It is theft, it is theft.
10:17This thing that if it is theft, well, no weapons were used.
10:21Yes, it's okay, go tell the 13-year-old boy
10:23that they took away his cell phone or backpack
10:25and left him lying on the floor.
10:27The trauma that remains for life.
10:29No, but it was theft, it was not theft,
10:31there was no firearm.
10:32Two days later, the same guy is stealing with a firearm
10:36or with a white gun in the street
10:38because he was not a little boy and someone resisted.
10:41Yes, there you have to put that question on the table again.
10:46The question of personal trauma
10:48in the face of the baroque interpretation
10:50of whether there was intention or not,
10:52if he had good faith or not.
10:54It comes to a point that is crazy.
10:57As it is.
10:59And it also goes back to the burden of the test.
11:02We forget about the real victim
11:04and we transform the victim into the victim.
11:08We are analyzing whether he really wanted it or not,
11:11but the result is concrete.
11:13Yes, back there.
11:14He killed, he hurt, he generated a trauma, he raped.
11:17There is no intermediary there.
11:19And back there are victims who suffer what happened.
11:22Jorge, we thank you very much for the contact.
11:24See you one day here in the studio.
11:28Of course. Thank you very much. Good afternoon.
11:30A hug.
