'There's no doubt that there were trains set on fire,' Boudou on Sobrero

Economy Minister Amado Boudou said that “we mustn’t mantain a corporation-friendly society,” when asked by reporters about his viewpoint on union’s stance on the burning down of trains and the detention of union leader Rubén Sobrero.

Boudou stressed that “President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner said it clearly, we must not sustain a corporate society, but one in which Justice works and all mechanisms allow Argentines to live better lives.”

Boudou added that “the vandalism cost the Argentine people a total amount of $45 million. “The burning down of trains existed and vandalism existed, there is no doubt about that. That cost the Argentines 45 million pesos,” the vice-presidential candidate said after leading a rally in Chaco province.

“The whole of institutions must work. This is an accusation that the Government put forward and we must bear in mind that vandalism was committed by a certain social group and the Judiciary will determine who is responsible,” Boudou added.
