Moreau: “Either the chats were fake and they made them up, or they hacked them and they didn’t make them up.”
The national deputy for the Frente de Todos (FdT), Leopoldo Moreau, considered this Tuesday that the request for a license announced by the Buenos Aires Minister of Security and Justice, Marcelo D’Alessandro, “knows little” in relation to “the enormous seriousness of facts” that were revealed with the leak of alleged chats that he had with a spokesman for the Supreme Court and with federal judges and directors of Grupo Clarín.
“The license request knows little. Actually, he should resign or they should have resigned because the seriousness of the facts that were revealed from his conversations is enormous,” said the deputy in statements to Radio Nacional about the chats that D’Alessandro held with Silvio Robles, a close associate of the president of the Supreme Court, Horacio Rosatti.
The Buenos Aires minister announced this afternoon at a press conference that he will take a temporary license to “order family things” and “prepare the defenses to demonstrate the falsehood of the infamous operations to which they intend to submit us.”
“Both things cannot be at the same time: either the chats were false and they were invented, or they were hacked and they were not invented” Leopoldo Moreau
Moreau recalled that during the first leak of chats, the Buenos Aires official “had first denied” having participated in a trip to Río Negro along with federal judges and directors of Grupo Clarín, invited by magnate Joe Lewis to his property on Lake Hidden.
“Then he had to admit (the trip) because the flight manifest was known, where he was listed as a passenger on that trip, which meant accompanying judges and prosecutors, who along with him, have received gifts and have resorted to the crime of influence peddling. “Moreau said.
Meanwhile, he considered that the license request announcement “is a confession” by D’Alessandro, both of “the irregularities in which he incurred” as well as “of the veracity of the chats.”
In addition, he pointed against D’Alessandro for having said that the chats “were false but that, at the same time, they had been hacked.”
“The two things at the same time cannot be: either they were false and they invented them, or they were hacked and they did not invent them,” Moreau explained.
