The note also requests that the university report in detail on the measures taken after the incidents, including possible disciplinary sanctions and concrete actions to prevent new acts of violence. This requirement seeks to establish institutional follow-up on the case and ensure that it does not go unanswered
The National Government, through the Undersecretary of University Policies of the Nation, Alejandro “El Profe” Álvarez, sent a formal note to the rector of the National University of Mar del Plata, Mónica Biasone, demanding an immediate response to the acts of violence that occurred within the institution.
The official intervention came after allegations of physical and verbal attacks by the left against students from the CREAR+ Libertad group, which had set up a stand on the premises, emerged. As stated in the communication, the incidents violated basic principles such as freedom of expression, democratic coexistence and security within the university

In the document, the Undersecretary points out that the rector is primarily responsible for ensuring normal institutional functioning and respect for constitutional rights within the establishment. In this sense, he is required to act quickly to prevent violence, intolerance and censorship from consolidating as common practices in the
academic field.
In addition, it is warned that a possible delay or lack of action could result in administrative responsibilities and even legal consequences. The proposal not only aims to clarify what happened, but also to mark a limit in the face of episodes that, according to the Government, threaten the plurality of ideas in spaces that should promote

The episode once again focuses on the political climate within some public universities, where left-wing and Peronist groups attempt to impose limits on freedom of expression through intimidation and the use of force. In this context, the national government intervenes to make universities return to being spaces of freedom and not of persecution

“If it bothers them, it's because we're making noise,” said the liberal group involved in the activity, CREAR+ Libertad, which assured that it will continue to actively participate in university life despite the aggressions suffered and attempts at censorship.
