Attempts to ban Argentine vice president condemned

Buenos Aires, Mar 11 (Prensa Latina) The governor of the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, denounced today the attempts to eliminate the Argentine vice president, Cristina Fernández, from political life and assured that she is the candidate in which the people trust.

During an act in the town of Avellaneda, the leader condemned the judicial persecution against the also head of the Senate and the attack perpetrated against her on September 1, 2022, when a man tried to shoot her.

If the people love Cristina, it will be her, he affirmed when referring to the presidential elections next October.

Next year Argentina will be governed by someone who defends rights, not who wants to crush them. There cannot be a conditioned and shrinking democracy, he added before thousands of members of political, union and social organizations.

On the other hand, he denounced the existence of a mafia made up of the big media, a part of the judiciary and the intelligence services.

Since lying is no longer enough for them, they went one step further, that of proscription, he indicated when referring to a sentence of six years in prison and perpetual disqualification from holding public office for the former head of state for alleged fraudulent administration.

Said sentence was issued for alleged irregularities in the awarding of 51 works in the province of Santa Cruz from 2003 to 2015, facts that Fernández denied and denied during three years of hearings.

Kicillof criticized the actions of the Justice and demanded that the perpetrators of the assassination attempt be punished.

For his part, the representative of the Frente de Todos and leader of the Justicialista Party in the province of Buenos Aires, Máximo Kirchner, assured that they seek to decapitate a political force and end all who arouse hope.

The participants in the meeting approved a document that marks this day as a turning point and as the beginning of a program of actions in support of the deputy president.

Cristina is essential for the construction of a country with social justice, economic independence and political sovereignty. With the leading role of our people, we must break the ban, the text points out.
