[HIGHLIGHTS] Wink from a Martín Lousteau reference at the arrival of Judge Ariel Lijo to the Supreme Court: "He will have the consensus of the majority"

Emiliano Yacobitti, vice-rector of the University of Buenos Aires, says Judge Ariel Lijo's request to join the Supreme Court will have consensus in Congress. The Government wants to speed up the process of appointing the Buenos Aires federal judge, along with that of the jurist Manuel García-Mansilla.

The ruling party will need two-thirds of those present, 48 senators, to secure the appointments. So far, the Government candidates have the support of the 7 senators of La Libertad Avanza, the 6 of the Pro and what allies such as Juan Carlos Romero and Beatriz Avila can contribute.
