He Government climbed a new step in his confrontation with the Supreme Court during the presentation of the chief of staff, Agustín Rossiin the Senate, who stirred up the ghost that the Judiciary could suspend the presidential elections, as it did in San Juan and Tucumán, if the vice president Cristina Kirchner decided to be a candidate.
Rossi went to the Senate to provide the Government’s monthly management report, as he did in April before the Chamber of Deputies, but on this occasion he devoted most of his presentation to the fight with the judiciary and what the ruling party calls “the judicial party.”
In addition to remarking that “in any survey” the The Judiciary “is one of the least credible institutions”the official pointed out that this “judicial party”, in which he included the judges of the Supreme Court, “persecutes” those who were part of the Kirchner administrations from 2003 to 2015 and also “meddles in the powers of other powers.”
It was in that aspect where Rossi launched one of the strongest definitions. First, He maintained that “in Argentina there is a supra-power that does not have democratic legitimacy but conditions the democratic life of Argentines” and then shot: “If this power is not disarmed, it is impossible to govern Argentina, because they govern you.”
Later, the Chief of Staff insisted on the same idea: “The challenge is disarm this factious power system“This is a harsher definition than those expressed so far by President Alberto Fernández and closer to the idea that Kirchnerism has been trying to install months ago: that there is no longer a democratic state.
The Government against the Court and the new ghost about Cristina Kirchner
In this sense, the referent of the national Government went a step further by linking the recent decision of the Court to suspend the elections that were scheduled for next Sunday in San Juan and Tucumán with the possibility that Cristina Kirchner presents herself as a candidate the president or other public office.
“No one can assure us that what they did with the Tucumán and San Juan elections they would not have done in the potential case that Cristina was a candidate”launched Rossi while the president of the Senate observed him from the podium.
To support this hypothesis, the Chief of Staff supported the idea of Kirchnerism that “the ruling against Cristina in the Highway it is proscriptive“. The conjunction of these two definitions ventilated one of the reasons that, according to what transcends from that political space, motivates the vice president’s resignation from a candidacy.
At the Instituto Patria there are those who believe that if the leader were to stand in the elections for any position, the “judicial party” could use the appeal of the “per saltum” to reach the Court with the objective of leave firm the sentence to perpetual disqualification to hold public office.
With the case of San Juan and Tucumán on the agenda, Rossi gave another twist to that theory and risked the possibility that the Court directly suspend any electoral process that has Cristina Kirchner as a candidate.
