Everything is current.
Despite the sum of power and trusted people in key places, there is an underlying claim between Cristina Kirchner and Alberto Fernández, one more.
The judicial situation for other heavy, did not change.
The prosecutions continued, with an oral trial in full swing and with the possibility that in the first half of 2021, the vice president will be sitting in the dock for the cause that began with the complaint of the late prosecutor Alberto Nisman.
Tension with the Casa Rosada is increasing due to a situation that adds problems, with multimillion-dollar embargoes in force, prosecutions on their children, and the crossfire with the Court and Comodoro Py.
The numbers graph the situation: eight cases of corruption brought to trial, more than $ 12,000 million in embargoes, three family businesses intervened four years ago, structures that defraud the State for $ 46,000 million under their responsibility, money laundering maneuvers for $ 130 million, circuit of millionaire bribes, a civil lawsuit for $ 21,600 million.
They are only part of the X-ray of the judicial situation of the former president and current vice president of the Nation.
Cristina Kirchner's claims do not require intermediaries.
A letter with harsh criticism towards the Supreme Court of Justice that confirmed the corruption conviction against his former running mate, Amado Boudou and that could set precedents for the future, made clear the unease.
The last proposal of the vice president was openly against Alberto Fernández's cabinet in a ceremony in La Plata in which he asked the officials who are not comfortable "to look for another job" the impact was immediate and changes in the Government are not ruled out.
Cristina's surroundings
had already expressed their anger against the Minister of Justice, Marcela Losardo,
who remained silent in critical situations.
Losardo is awarded a null defense of the vice president surrounded by legal problems.
Losardo is an extremely trusted official of the President: she is a friend, they were partners.
Cristina Kirchner in the first hearing of the trial for public works in 2019. She is still being tried.
The judicial reasons for the vice president's anger with Alberto Fernández are diverse and have as a common denominator his name in the files for alleged acts of corruption.
They were not a dead letter, and
the cases are advancing
to the point of being able to simultaneously carry out more than one oral trial against him in the next two years, when he is still in full exercise of power.
Despite the year passed through by the Covid19 pandemic, decisions were made at the judicial level that at first seemed to favor Cristina Kirchner's scenario, but over the months that perception was changing, even for her environment that does not skimp on criticism of the Casa Rosada for not alleviating the situation.
Between December 2019 and the first half of this year, the preventive prisons requested on the vice president were without effect.
It was a decision of the Chamber of Cassation.
To this measure, three prosecutions were added, which were reversed in three files related to the cause known as the Cuadernos de las Bribes.
The resolutions that came out of Comodoro Py, began to generate some relief.
In the middle, Alberto Fernández promoted the judicial reform from which Cristina Kirchner became unmarked when it began to be discussed in the Senate.
He was looking for "something deeper,"
a deeper modification.
He said that the President's was not his reform.
The Alto Calafate hotel belonging to the Kirchner family is being investigated in the Hotesur case where the children of Vice President Máximo and Florencia are being processed.
The truth is that with a trial for alleged corruption in public works in full development, other measures of justice were gaining ground on the initial relief.
The Court continued with the hearings and they will continue throughout the election year, with her as the main defendant.
But in addition,
on February 10 the TOF 4 will issue a sentence in the money laundering case against Lázaro Báez.
The Supreme Court in the sights of Cristina Kirchner.
He accuses the judges of making rulings against him.
In that file, the Ruta del Dinero K, Cristina Kirchner is not charged but it is about her former business partner and in addition, it was determined that the preceding crime is the cause of the road contracts where she is indicated as the head of an illicit association.
Another uncomfortable decision can be added to the first semester.
The TOF 8 could set the date for the start of the trial against the vice president for covering up the AMIA attack after the signing of the Pact with Iran, the case that began with the prosecutor Alberto Nisman's complaint.
As if these reasons were not few, in the second semester of next year, marked by the legislative elections, the TOF 5 could initiate the trial in the Hotesur and Los Sauces cases, which will lead for the first time to an oral debate to the children of the vice president,
Máximo and Florencia Kirchner.
The judicial year also concludes with the confirmation of the constitutionality of the Law of the Repentant and with that determination the 31 confessions of the accused collaborators of the Cuadernos de las Coimas were endorsed, which includes former private secretaries of Cristina Kirchner, as former officials and various businessmen.
The case advances, more slowly than others, towards the beginning of the trial.
