The Spanish lawyer Javier Borrego, recently joined the defense of the multiple convicted former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, has launched a provocation that defies any institutional logic by stating: "Cristina Kirchner could run in the PASO system elections".
According to the former judge of the European Court of Human Rights, this maneuver would be possible because the primaries "are not initially for a position", but serve as "preparatory" elections for the future general elections. With a defiant tone towards the popular will, Borrego also warned that "If she runs, electoral support may be difficult for the opposition".
In an attempt to clean the image of the head of Kirchnerism, the foreign lawyer even declared in an audiovisual record that "Here Cristina is not a thief, or at least I haven't seen it in the papers", cynically ignoring the evidence of the largest corruption scheme in recent history.
From the Casa Rosada, the response to the electoral delirium of the defense was a cutting irony: "Great candidate", hinted a source from the political table of Javier Milei, making it clear that the figure of the convicted is politically finished.
While the opposition gets lost in speculation, the government is moving firmly in the Congress to eliminate the PASO, considering them an "unnecessary expense" that decent Argentines should not continue to finance.
