Guillermo Francos raised objections about Clean File: “It can be interpreted as a proscription”

In the last ordinary session of the year of the Chamber of Deputies, the yellow legislators failed to gather the necessary support and, at the end of time, Martin Menem should have adjourned the session. The project, promoted by the PRO, did not obtain all the libertarian support and lost parliamentary status, so it will have to be discussed again in commissions.

“We agree with Ficha Cleana and what it means”Francos made clear tonight, hours after the legislative shipwreck of the project, but clarified the risks of its sanction: “What we may not agree with is that it can be interpreted as a proscription.”

In dialogue with the TN channel, Franks He gave as an example a historical event such as the banning of Peronism during part of the 20th century. “At some point it emerged that the president himself had said ‘Remember when Perón was banned in 1955 and then he returned.’”

Along these lines, he compared that event with the situation that the former president is going through. Cristina Kirchner. “Let’s not make a kind of prophecy that by trying to apply this rule to the former president as some claim, we are making a kind of proscription that will later generate the opposite,” he warned. In any case, he clarified that if the law had been approved, it could not have been applied to the former president because the conviction took place previously.

Then he spoke about what happened today in the Lower House. “There was no negotiation. In any case, there was no conviction that the issue was going to be discussed and approved,” he said and added: “It was not known if all the blocks that had committed to voting were going to go down, why are we making the LLA deputies responsible?”

The Chief of Staff denied that there is a pact between the ruling party and Kirchnerism. “The President does not seek to polarize the election with Cristina Kirchner”said.

Francos’ clarification came after rumors spread by some deputies, such as Nicolás Massot (Federal Meeting), who pointed out: “Clear agreement between the government and the K to achieve Menem’s re-election on Wednesday. Known days ago and expressed with the complicity of LLA so that there is no quorum today. “Menem’s candidacy in exchange for CFK’s with a Clean Record as a screen.”

On the other hand, he also spoke about the possibility of running a woman for the Supreme Court if the current names fail to advance. “The President wants the most qualified to fill the positions, the sex of the person proposed is the least important.” In addition, he once again emphasized that the ruling party wants both documents to be approved, “both or neither.”

And he concluded by referring to the possibility of appointing judges by decree: “It is a power of the President. He has the possibility in his hands to do it if he wants.”
