Law/Patents - Law (general)
Spanish term or phrase: cuadro
Todo ello aporta al cuadro un interés adicional y quizás más categórico: el de favorecer a reconocidos políticos altamente cuestionados, así como a los jerarcas militares de turno, que siempre y en todo momento de la vida democrática del país han sido el poder fáctico y real en los distintos gobiernos civiles. Así, mediante el otorgamiento de concesiones y subvenciones lesivas e ilegales, los gobernantes de turno han obtenido recíprocamente de los jerarcas militares de turno, a un gravoso costo para el país, una distensión en sus pretensiones golpistas de hacerse del poder público por medio de las armas, tal como ocurrió en décadas anteriores.
