Operator road blocks Who protest the lack Gasoline As he said, taxes have risen in recent hours ᲔᲠᲘ Carlos GeneiroSecretary General of the National Union of Carriers and Related Companies of the Republic of Argentina (UNTRA).

As the leader noted with this media, “10 to 15 more courts have been added” and “most of them are in the province of Buenos Aires”. Geneiro provided this information based on reports he received from places confirming their loyalty.

In this context, the protest became widespread: “We have more than 60 courts across the country and a lot is being said [transportistas para sumarse”].

Undra is participating in the protest together with Transportistas Unidos de Argentina (TUDA), Autoconvocados Unidos and the Port Administration (Sutap).

In the south of the country, between the three points of Rio Negro and Neuquen, according to Geneiro, there are “trucks parked from 1700 to 1800”. He added: “Most of the courts are in Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Tucuman.” Also, among other places, are Entre Ríos and Córdoba. In this last province, the Provincial Liaison Office, in the figure of an appointed leader, approached the train assembly to secure their support in Sinsacate, as sources in the group told the media.

There is a picket on the Rosario-Buenos Aires highway, the complete cessation of which is heavy traffic at the height of Villa Constitución. Carriers also concentrated on 153 kilometers of the Rio Tala crossing.

“We demand that the government sit down with us and raise the issue we have because of the cameras [que tienen la representación oficial] They do not show the reality of transport. Today we waste 20% of the cost of cargo, with costs, fuel and coverage. [por su rotura] It is not filled, we are mourning. “ He pointed out.

Geneiro demanded decisions before any end to the force measure. “We can not stand as if nothing had happened,” he said. He insisted that for example, when four months ago 65% of cargo went at the cost of diesel, now that percentage is around 80%.

Price inequality

On the subject of diesel pricing, a report was released today from a camera that is not unemployed: the Argentine Federation of Trucking Companies (Fadeeac). On the map he showed a sharp difference in fuel prices with 44 group camera consultations. Members were asked to pay a fee and then selected the minimum and maximum in each region.

“Although the price of a liter in 6 districts of the country exceeded 250 pesos (Formosa, Tucuman, Santiago del Estero, Santa Fe, Corrientes and Cordoba), in two (Chubuti and Santa Cruz) the maximum price per liter was $ 140. And the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, $ 150 ″, Said the organization.

Roberto Guarnier, President of Fadeeac, thus refers to the situation in the provinces. “The consequences of a lack of official responses and a lack of policy are the worst in the world, as they create deficits and fuel quotas, in some cases 50 liters or less, with very high and varying prices between provinces. And locations. Lack of productivity and irregularities caused by this situation are more obvious. We insist that dialogue is the way to find a way out, but we need interlocutors for that. “We reiterate to the government our readiness to find a solution, as well as the request to be summoned,” he said.

The organization warned that “there is a situation of such extreme anarchy that even if it escalates to infinite prices, supply will not be normalized without a coordinated and worked-out coordination that unites oil tankers, carriers and government agencies.”

In this context, the Federation of Transport and Logistics Units of Argentina (Faetyl) in a statement demanded a “free transit guarantee” and warned of possible shortages of products for industry and consumption.

“Due to the disturbing situation created by the lack of diesel in Tukuman province and other parts of our country, Fettil sent a series of letters to the Ministries of Labor, Employment and Social Security, Production, Transport and Interior. Try to normalize the situation. We request the introduction and management of the necessary facilities to ensure free transit and access to warehouses, logistics centers and mass consumption points in various urban centers. Said. “Our logistics and freight forwarding operations, which we carry out for a diverse portfolio of manufacturing clients, will be severely affected and may lead to shortages of products for both the manufacturing and consumption industries. “Given the criticality of the situation, we remain vigilant for a rapid response,” he added.
