Yesterday, Claudia Ortiz, the sole Legislative Assembly deputy from the VAMOS political party, stated that VAMOS is emerging as “the only alternative” to counterbalance the ruling party amid ARENA’s internal conflict.

Ortiz made the statement during a Dialogo 21 TV interview. The deputy communicated that “VAMOS is the only opposition alternative in the Legislative Assembly.”

VAMOS is becoming the only alternative to overcome this situation of abuse of power and many others in which economic power benefits a small group to the detriment or detriment of the majority of the population. Deputy Claudia Ortiz.

Ortiz declared that VAMOS “has demonstrated with actions” how it has been “on the side of the population, defending just causes and making very important proposals.”

VAMOS and ARENA are the two opposing political parties in the current legislature. Currently, the right-wing party ARENA is dealing with internal conflict.

Tension in the Political Party Arena

In recent weeks, the ARENA party has been embroiled in a public dispute between its president, Carlos García Saade, and deputy Marcela Villatoro, with both exchanging accusations.

ARENA deputy Marcela Villatoro has accused COENA president Carlos García Saade of using the party as a shield to avoid accountability for his handling of the party’s political debt funds.

Time will tell who betrayed and sold out ARENA. And time will prove me right. Deputy Marcela Villatoro.

ARENA party president Carlos Saade lashed out against deputy Marcela Villatoro, due to the internal situation that has exposed the party’s internal division.

Saade stated that the parliamentarian never wanted to be part of the renewal of ARENA. “Marcela, I have known you for years and I know that despite the spaces we gave you to rejoin the renewal team, you were never going to do it, because power has always dazzled you,” declared the ARENA president.
