A member of the ruling Colorado Party, Federico Paganini, responded to criticism from a faction within his own party, Vamos Uruguay, led by Pedro Bordaberry. The dispute centers on Paganini’s recent vote in favor of allocating additional funds to the capital city’s municipality. Vamos Uruguay strongly opposed the decision, prompting Paganini’s defense. He asserted that the municipality has the lowest debt levels in the country. Paganini also implied a lack of understanding of the budgetary situation from his critics. The exchange highlights internal divisions within the Colorado Party regarding municipal spending priorities. Further details regarding the specific criticisms and Paganini’s full response remain to be released.
