Amid mounting anticipation over a potential final ruling by the Supreme Court against Cristina Kirchner, Union for the Motherland has swiftly called for an emergency gathering. Set to convene on Monday at 3 PM at the Instituto Patria, this meeting aims to rally all deputies from the bloc. The session seeks to strategize and mobilize in response to the looming specter of Kirchner’s conviction in the Vialidad case.
The former president recently sounded a clarion call during a Justicialist Party event in Corrientes, cautioning supporters to stay vigilant as she faces possible imprisonment. Linking the court’s impending judgment to her political aspirations in Buenos Aires Province, Cristina Kirchner defiantly declared her candidacy for deputy in the Third Electoral Section. “It set off a firestorm,
” she recounted passionately.
“
They started clamoring from all sides for my arrest,
” lamented Kirchner, urging her followers not to succumb to anger but instead stay alert. Dismissing speculations about her downfall, she challenged detractors: “
If I’m so cornered and finished, why not compete with me electorally? Watch how I tremble.
” Her rallying cry echoed memories of past threats as she evoked a harrowing assassination attempt: “
They aimed a gun at my face because they want me jailed or dead.”
As tensions escalate following Kirchner’s failed bid to challenge Judge Ricardo Lorenzetti’s impartiality, all eyes turn towards the Supreme Court’s imminent decision on whether to uphold her six-year prison sentence and perpetual disqualification from public office. With no definitive timeline for the verdict’s release, speculations run rife that it could be imminent.
Shielded in secrecy, the Court remains tight-lipped about the judgment date – opting for an unexpected reveal without prior announcement. Technically primed for resolution according to insiders, recent deliberations within the Court underscore its readiness for a pivotal ruling on Kirchner’s fate.
This high-stakes legal saga unfolds against a backdrop of political intrigue and personal fortitude as Cristina Kirchner braces herself for what could be a defining moment in her legacy. As uncertainty looms over Argentina’s political landscape, one thing remains certain – in this arena of power play and brinksmanship – only time will unveil its next move.
