Moyano Returns with Barbs for Adorni, Urges Union Action Against Milei

Argentine union leader Pablo Moyano has resurfaced with strong criticism directed at government officials and a call for intensified union action. Speaking at a summit of the International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF) in Buenos Aires, Moyano launched a scathing attack on Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni, who is reportedly under investigation for illicit enrichment. Moyano stated that Adorni should have been removed from his position much earlier.

The kick in the ass should have been given to him a long time ago.

Moyano, who had previously distanced himself from the current leadership of the General Confederation of Labor (CGT), used his reappearance to pressure the union confederation. He urged the CGT to activate a "plan of struggle" against President Javier Milei's administration, emphasizing that "the street" remains the only viable strategy after previous attempts have failed. Moyano also labeled Peronist legislators who voted for labor reform as "traitors."

They have had three strategies, two of which failed, so the street remains.

Further elaborating on his criticism, Moyano described the House of Government as a "cave of rats." He expressed concern over the CGT's current approach, suggesting that while international complaints have been made, tangible action on the ground is lacking. Moyano believes the CGT needs to take a leading role and initiate street mobilizations and a plan of action.

The House of Government has become a cave of rats.

Addressing the political landscape, Moyano lamented the internal divisions within Peronism, citing disputes over leadership figures like Máximo Kirchner, Cristina Kirchner, Sergio Massa, and Axel Kicillof. He concluded that the public currently feels unrepresented by any Peronist candidates, attributing this to ongoing internal conflicts and a lack of clear leadership.

Today people do not see themselves represented by any Peronist candidate.
