Filmus accepts Macri's conditions to debate

Victory Front’s candidate for Buenos Aires City mayor, Daniel Filmus, said he will accept a debate with Mauricio Macri before the runoff election on July 31, assuring that the “City has a 6.5 billion dollars budget and we are willing to discuss what to do with those funds.”

Filmus referred to the ten points of his proposal to make a coalition, after heading a rally at the Plaza de los Dos Congresos square accompanied by his Deputy Mayor candidate, Carlos Tomada, to celebrate the first anniversary of the law that approved the same sex marriage.

He said that those ten points “could be used as a base to give a dimension of what a more equal city is, with a better life for everybody.”

The Senator also affirmed that he has accepted the conditions given by Mauricio Macri to make a televised debate facing the July 31 runoff, and said that it might be held this week.

Filmus explained that there are seven venues to make the debate that is why they “accept the conditions Macri gave, because he preferred to make a draw.”
