Cristina Kirchner's speech at the Avellaneda event

Cristina Fernández de Kirchner presented this Tuesday in Avellaneda the Municipal Sports Center "Diego Armando Maradona", in Villa Corina. The call was at 7:00 p.m. and was published on the official social networks of the Vice President and through the live broadcast of Página/12. 

During the ceremony, the vice president mentioned the Supreme Court ruling regarding federal co-participation: CFK commented on the unusual decision of the highest court, which "ignored a law of Congress" by recently ruling in favor of the Buenos Aires government's claim . The former president described that resolution of the Court as an "unlegal" fact, as if the rule of law had disappeared. And to be based on that classification, CFK commented that she used the concepts of Raúl Zaffaroni, who gave an extensive interview published by Página / 12 about the performance of the Supreme Court in the co-participation ruling.

Vice President Cristina Fernández compared the Judiciary to an "arbitrator who pumps you up", and stressed the need for "to once again have a serious arbitrator who applies the law and has a guarantee for everyone that everyone is equal before the law". She also considered "it is necessary that we put the best of each one of us because Argentina has suffered a lot and there are still many shortcomings."

Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner affirmed today that "there is a patent of impunity for anyone who is not a Peronist" and called on the militancy to "go out and speak and explain, make contact with the neighborhood." "What happens when we find out through the media that the man (Gerardo Millman), being a member of the Security Commission, had links and contracts with security companies? There is a patent of impunity for anyone who is not a Peronist. We should all ask ourselves If a country with these parameters in the administration of justice is sustainable", questioned the Vice President.

Vice President Cristina Fernández affirmed today that "there was a law of Congress" that "consecrated the new distribution" of funds between the national government and the provinces, but warned that "however" the Supreme Court "ignored that law" by recently ruled in favor of the claim of the Buenos Aires government. The vice president pointed out that former president Mauricio Macri "modified with a simple decree" in 2016 "what was the responsibility of the national Government of co-participation and gave a lot to the Government of the city, the richest city in Argentina", and expanded that "this , which had been discussed and criticized by all the governors of the country, was resolved with another decree of the Government of Alberto Fernández" and the corresponding law sanctioned by Congress.

"This may seem like a discussion between politicians. But that judicial party influences the quality of life of citizens. You have to wake up. When they rip your head off with the cell phone, internet, cable bill, it is because there was a judge who issued a Amparo so that they are not a public service. The same thing happened with the prepaid ones," CFK said.

Vice President Cristina Fernández associated the time set for the reading of the grounds of her conviction in the Highway case with the proscription of Peronism in 1956. "On March 9 they will read the grounds and on March 9, 1956 the Official Gazette will publishes decree 41/61, which prohibited saying the words 'Perón', 'Evita' and prohibited singing the Peronist March," said the vice president from Avellanada.

Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner assured today that "the only resignation that Peronism had was that of Eva Perón" and indicated that the reason why she will not run in the next 2023 elections is because "there is a ban." "What they did was put together a trial with complaints, with an almost surgical electoral chronology. After a three-year armed trial, they decided that the oral trial in which they were going to sit me on the defendant's bench was on May 21, 2019 Exactly fifteen days before the electoral deadlines closed to assemble the electoral fronts where the Presidency of the Nation would be disputed. Three days before I dismantled that maneuver when I announced that we were going to a front with who is president of the Argentine Republic today. It was a clear proscriptive maneuver",

"Neither resignation nor self-exclusion: there is a ban". With that phrase, Cristina Kirchner explained her decision not to appear on the ballot for the 2023 elections.

“They have another project, it is the one that governed (with Macri), it is the one that lost and it is the one that today they say, in an open way, that they are coming to get labor rights, to get compensation, that they are coming to get Aerolíneas and YPF. That is why it seems to me that there are two models: what is at stake is the right or the rights”.

After the word of the mayor of Avellaneda, the microphone passed to Axel Kicillof. There the Buenos Aires governor mentioned the Supreme Court ruling on co-participation: "Here what has occurred is a discretionary, arbitrary and directed management of resources to the richest city in The country to the detriment of the entire federal interior".  ;

"It is a sports center that is in one of the places where the people who make the most effort are, who have dreams that we can achieve with a sports structure," said Jorge Ferraresi, mayor of Avellaneda, about the opening of the sports center "Diego Armando Maradona ". 

A large number of supporters waited in the streets for the arrival of Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner at the Diego Armando Maradona Municipal Sports Center, in the Villa Corina de Avellaneda neighborhood, with slogans such as "militancy is the way" and "military until the impossible becomes inevitable", in a festive atmosphere, in which the majority expressed categorical support for the former president. "I come to listen to her thoughts and for her to take us to that place where we want to go," said a man who waited on Barceló street, a few meters from the sports center, for the arrival of Fernández de Kirchner. Hundreds of young people with flags from the La Cámpora group surrounded the headquarters and celebrated in the streets, to the rhythm of drums, the arrival of the Vice Presidency, together with militants from other organizations such as Nuevo Encuentro, Barrios de Pie, Unidos y Organizados, and Peronismo Militante. "That she tell us what she thinks, how she is and what the future is going to be like," asked another man, interviewed by the press. With t-shirts with the legend "Fuerza Cristina", "Militancy is the way" and "Military until the impossible becomes inevitable", the people occupied the streets and sidewalks before Fernández de Kirchner entered the sports center to lead the inauguration ceremony , together with Mayor Jorge Ferraresi, and deliver a speech.

At the premiere of the Diego Armando Maradona sports center, the futsal field will bear the name of another world champion, Héctor Enrique. "It's something that will always be in my heart," said the former soccer player, who was present at the CFK event, thanked the municipality for the tribute and, incidentally, celebrated  the victory of the National Team in Qatar.

Inside the sports center, the thousands of supporters established a position with the already classic: "If they touch Cristina, what a mess will be set up."

The vice president tours the works together with the mayor of Avellaneda, Jorge Ferraresi, and the governor of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof.

Cristina Kirchner was sentenced to six years and permanently disqualified from holding public office in early December for alleged "fraudulent administration." The fundamentals will be known on March 9 next. Once the grounds are in place, the legal term for appeals before the Criminal Cassation Chamber begins to run.

The Chamber must analyze the case and has several alternatives: make the decision of the Oral Court final, reverse it or modify the sentences. You can also order that the sentences of some of the defendants be shortened and others extended.

If the Federal Chamber confirms the ruling, Cristina Kirchner has one more alternative before the sentence becomes final: to file an extraordinary appeal before the Supreme Court of Justice, the country's highest court, and the one in charge of reviewing the Court's rulings. Oral and the Chamber of Cassation. The final sentence is expected to arrive only at the end of 2024 or even in 2025.

The last time Cristina led an act was in mid-November, within the framework of Militancy Day. She did it at the Estadio Único de La Plata, before the ruling in the Highway case was known, and while President Alberto Fernández was returning from the G-20 summit that was held in Indonesia.

Cristina Fernández had planned to participate in a meeting organized by the Puebla Group on Monday, December 12, but that act was postponed because the vice president was infected with covid. It was going to take place the following Monday, but the date was changed to March again because several international guests could not change their trips with such short notice.

This Tuesday morning, the Vice President herself announced through her social networks that she will be present at the inauguration. "Today I will participate in the inauguration of the Diego Armando Maradona sports center in Villa Corina, Avellaneda. They will be able to see it live on my networks," she wrote.

The act, which will be the first public appearance of the vice president after the ruling for the Road Cause was known, had been confirmed by the mayor of Avellaneda, Jorge Ferraresi on his social networks last Thursday. "On Tuesday we will receive our partner CFK to inaugurate the 'Diego Armando Maradona' Municipal Sports Center. It has a heated pool, soccer field, gym, multi-sport space and micro-stadium," he explained.

 

The vice president pointed out that former president Mauricio Macri "modified with a simple decree" in 2016 "what was the responsibility of the national Government of co-participation and gave a lot to the Government of the city, the richest city in Argentina", and expanded that "this , which had been discussed and criticized by all the governors of the country, was resolved with another decree of the Government of Alberto Fernández" and the corresponding law sanctioned by Congress.
