K major indicted for corruption criticizes Milei and defends Cristina Kirchner

In 2013, councilman Lisandro Antúnez detailed that Francioni authorized a direct contract for 3,600,000 pesos ($3,600,000) for the remodeling of a building intended to be a community center. In this regard, the councilman stated: "It should have gone through a public tender and it was done by a direct contract, it never went through the council and the works started more than a year ago."

He also indicated that Francioni had made the purchase of two machines with two checks, one for more than one million pesos ($1,000,000) and another for 240,000 pesos ($240,000).

Like many Kirchnerist leaders, his career combines criticism of non-Peronist governments with judicial scandals related to fraud against the State through public works. This is a common and well-known pattern that generates confusion and ethical questions.

The K mayor and former national deputy, Fabián Francioni, lashed out at President Javier Milei and his cabinet, stating that "they put the country's economic and democratic stability at risk."

During an interview, the mayor of Leones, Córdoba, criticized the fiscal adjustment promoted by the national government and the policies that, according to him, deepen social inequality. He warned about alleged "institutional contradictions" in the Executive's decisions, describing them as a setback for Argentina.

Strong defense of Cristina Kirchner

Francioni, in the interview, expressed his full support for Cristina Fernández de Kirchner despite her two convictions in the Vialidad case. This support generates controversy given that the former president is close to receiving a final ruling from the Supreme Court.

Defending her, despite her convictions, highlights an ethical contradiction: unconditional support for a person accused of corruption. Paradoxically, the K mayor was also investigated for the same thing.
