Alberto Fernández
's explosive speech
against the Supreme Court during the opening of legislative sessions will have immediate consequences for the Impeachment Committee.
The radical Mario Negri is convinced to
request the opening of a political trial against the President
, while the Federal Interbloc of Alejandro "Topo" Rodríguez will request
the annulment of the proceedings in the Coparticipation file.
Both sectors agree that the president
meddled in the process
that is being carried out in the committee of Deputies and citing article 109 of the Constitution, they point out that he cannot
"arrogate knowledge of pending cases."
Negri is considering not only presenting a note requesting the incorporation of the impeachment projects already presented - more than a dozen - against the president and the vice president, but also
preparing a new project based on what happened on Wednesday in Congress.
"There are already requests presented, some already for interference in other judicial cases, but what happened in the legislative assembly exceeded all the limits that could be imagined and the political context in which it occurred was extremely serious," Negri said in a dialogue with Clarín
.
In this sense, he considered that
"there are plenty of grounds to initiate another request for impeachment for poor performance
, regardless of the result."
It is that the result will surely be the rejection in limine of the commission, where
the Frente de Todos, by a deputy, is the majority.
"The words of Alberto Fernández finished shedding light on how shameful and unfounded this process against the Court is, of a purely persecutory nature. He tried to attack the judges. If the Frente de Todos denies our request, it will be showing that
It is only a parody to wear down the judges
, "concluded the radical.
For his part, the president of the Federal Interblock, Alejandro "Topo" Rodríguez, who is a member of the Political Judgment commission, will request the annulment of the proceedings in the file referring to the Co-participation cause.
The text is being prepared with the support and encouragement of his bench partner, Graciela Camaño, and her legal team that assists the Interbloc.
In addition to basing it on the fact that the president "assumed knowledge" of a case that is still open, they point out that his attitude is an "undue interference" in the ongoing process and that he "intends to condition the result."
Rodríguez ended up leaving the premises on the day of the legislative assembly together with Camaño and other legislators from his block.
They did it after the President defended the Impeachment to the Court.
"On February 16, I proposed to summon the President as a witness in the Political Judgment Commission. The FdT responded with a categorical rejection. For this reason, I complained to Kirchnerism that it is now institutional arbitrariness and illegality for the President to use his speech
to influence in the ongoing process. That's why we left
, "explained "Topo" Rodríguez.
Alberto Fernández's speech
During his presentation, the President accused the Court for the inequalities that exist between the provinces.
"While many provinces need to carry out works that ensure services as essential as drinking water for their inhabitants, the Supreme Court of Justice assured the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires of co-participating resources that do not correspond to it, contrary to the current co-participation law
. it takes money from those who need it the most and allocates those same resources to the most opulent city in the country," he said.
He also singled them out for the drug trafficking situation in Santa Fe. "If that reform of the Federal Justice had prospered
and if the Supreme Court had not taken the Judicial Council by assault, today Santa Fe would not be suffering from the lack of courts that prevent the rapid prosecution of organized crime
that has expanded into their territory," he launched.
