Argentine Industrial Union head José Ignacio de Mendiguren, backed yesterday’s speech of President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner during the UIA’s annual conference saying that a revenue share bill is not something that should be discussed in Congress but rather between unions and businessmen.
Thus, Mendiguren ratified his intention of not having the revenue share bill project debated at the Lower House, and justified it saying that “situations are not the same for every industrial sector in the country. And a possible share of revenues is something that must be discussed at work, it’s not something that you can turn into law. ”
Likewise, the lobbyst emphasized that contrary to Europe “Argentina is a country in which the economy is handled and managed by the Executive power and not the other way around, and the President demonstrates it on every speech she gives.”
Furthermore, Mendiguren asked for “a noticeable increase of investment in order to tackle inflation.”
