.The question, direct and bluntly, aimed to know his position in the face of a possible measure of this type in the event that Kirchnerism reoccupies the Casa Rosada. However, far from answering clearly, the Buenos Aires president chose to avoid the issue, which generated criticism
and comments on social networks.The excerpt from the exchange quickly went viral and was interpreted by many users as a sign of the tensions that Peronism is experiencing, especially in the midst of the discussion about space leadership in the face of the next elections.
The possibility of pardoning the former president became one of the most sensitive issues in the Kirchner universe. While some of the toughest sectors of the movement demand explicit support for Cristina Kirchner, other leaders prefer to avoid speaking out
publicly on the issue.In that context, the question Kicillof received placed him in an uncomfortable situation. The governor tries to position himself as one of the main figures of Peronism in the face of the electoral future, but at the same time he seeks not to get caught up in debates that could generate rejection in moderate sectors
