milei Calls​ Senate Session Expelling Kueider “Invalid,” Citing Procedural Irregularities

Buenos Aires, Argentina – From Italy, where he is receiving the Milton Friedman 2024 international prize,‍ Argentine President Javier Milei has weighed in on the controversial Senate ⁣session​ that lead to the expulsion ‌of Senator Edgardo Kueider. Milei declared the session “invalid,” citing procedural ⁤irregularities.

Milei emphasized that Vice President victoria Villarruel, who⁤ presided over the session, was aware of his absence due to his trip. “What I can confirm and verify is ⁤that​ Dr. Villarruel⁣ was notified,” Milei stated. ​”The official document informing her of⁤ my trip was received⁤ by her on Tuesday, 48 hours before the ⁤session.”

He ⁤added, “In fact, the General Secretariat​ of the Nation interacted with Dr. ‌VillarruelS secretary,⁢ so she was also notified. On the same day I traveled,⁣ Manuel Adorni himself confirmed that I‍ was‍ traveling to Italy ​around 12:00-12:30 pm.”

Milei’s comments echo Kueider’s own claims that the⁤ session was illegitimate. Kueider, who has filed a legal challenge seeking reinstatement, argues that Villarruel was ​performing two incompatible ​roles by both presiding over the session and acting as the Senate’s president pro tempore in‍ Milei’s absence.

Despite his criticism of the session’s ⁢validity, Milei suggested that a ⁣new​ vote⁤ could ‍be held, stating, “Given ⁢the numbers, it’s clear that everyone⁣ wants the Kueiders out.”

This latest progress adds another layer of complexity⁤ to the already contentious political landscape in Argentina.⁤ The expulsion of Kueider, a prominent⁣ figure in⁤ the ⁢libertarian movement, has sparked debate ‍about due process and the balance of power within the⁣ Senate.

Milei Calls​ Senate Session ‘Invalid’ After Kueider Expulsion

Buenos Aires, Argentina – A fiery clash erupted between President Javier Milei and Vice‍ President ​Victoria Villarruel following the expulsion of Senator Edgardo Kueider from the Senate.‌ Milei, known for his⁤ outspoken libertarian views, declared the Senate session “invalid” and accused Villarruel of ⁢violating the separation of powers.

The controversy ​stems from ‌Kueider’s removal from the Senate after a heated debate. While Milei agreed ‍with Kueider’s expulsion, he criticized Villarruel for presiding over the session while simultaneously serving as President.

“You can’t do what ⁣she did because Argentina⁤ has⁤ a republican system,” Milei stated. “This is how the system of checks and balances works. When I travel, ther is automatically a vacancy in the presidency, and the executive branch takes over. If she presides​ over a Senate session, she is ​working in the legislative branch, but at the same time ⁢she is President of the Nation. This violates the division of powers.”

Despite his strong condemnation‌ of Villarruel’s actions, Milei hinted that Kueider’s expulsion could be reversed, stating, “The Senate could do it ⁤again because, by the numbers, it’s clear that everyone wants​ the Kueiders out of politics.”

Milei also took aim at the Kirchnerist ‌faction, ‍accusing them of hypocrisy for expelling Kueider while‍ leaving Senator Oscar ‍Parrilli, a ‌figure Milei considers corrupt, untouched.

“It bothers me that there are crooks in ⁢politics,” Milei declared.‌ “We need to kick them all out.”

The President also weighed in on the ‍”Ficha Limpia” (Clean Slate) bill, a proposal aimed at barring individuals with criminal records from holding public office. While Milei supported the original concept, he criticized the current version, arguing⁢ that it would unfairly‌ exclude honest individuals while allowing corrupt politicians to slip through.

“As it stands now, it​ leaves out the⁤ good ‍guys and lets the crooks in,” Milei asserted. He attributed this flaw to the lack of⁤ independent justice in some provinces.

Milei’s comments highlight the ongoing tensions within the Argentine political landscape and his unwavering commitment to his libertarian principles. ‍The fallout from Kueider’s expulsion and ​Milei’s sharp ‍criticism of Villarruel are likely to fuel further debate and division in the coming weeks.

Argentina’s President Hints at Decree ‍to​ Fill Supreme court vacancies Amid senate ‌Gridlock

Buenos Aires,Argentina – President Alberto Fernández ignited controversy this week,suggesting he ⁢may bypass ⁢the⁤ Senate and appoint Supreme court justices by decree if the ⁣legislative body fails to⁢ approve his nominees. The move comes amidst ​a heated political climate and ongoing debate over judicial reform.

Fernández’s comments, made during a recent interview, highlight the deep divisions ‍within Argentina’s⁢ political landscape.⁣ The president’s nominees, Ariel Lijo and Manuel García Mansilla, have⁣ faced strong opposition from some senators, leading to a stalemate in the confirmation process.

“If I can get it through ‌the Senate, I’ll​ get it through the Senate,” Fernández stated. “If the demand arises and the Senate doesn’t resolve it, I have to resolve it. So, I’ll resolve it temporarily in that way, and then the Senate ⁤can either validate or reject it.”

This potential ⁢move has drawn criticism from ‌opposition lawmakers who argue that bypassing the⁤ Senate undermines democratic principles and sets a ⁢perilous precedent. They contend that ‌the president should respect the legislative ‌process and work towards building consensus.

The president’s remarks also come as argentina grapples with the fallout from the controversial “Ficha ​Limpia” anti-corruption law. Fernández ‌has been a vocal critic ‌of the legislation,arguing​ that it is politically motivated and aimed at targeting ​his allies.

He has accused opponents of​ using the law to create a “narrative of proscription” against former President Cristina ⁤Kirchner, ⁢a powerful figure in Argentine politics. While Fernández has stated that he believes Kirchner should be imprisoned, he maintains that approving “Ficha Limpia” in its current form would only serve to further ‍polarize the country.

Adding to the political turmoil, former Senator Edgardo ⁤Kueider, recently expelled from the Senate following ‌a scandal involving the‌ discovery of a large sum of cash in his possession, has filed a legal challenge seeking his reinstatement. Kueider argues that his expulsion was illegitimate as the ​Senate President, Victoria​ Villarruel, was simultaneously exercising executive powers while presiding over the session.

The situation underscores the fragility of Argentina’s political institutions and the deep divisions that continue to plague the country. As the president contemplates using his executive power to fill Supreme ⁢Court ‌vacancies, the nation watches with bated breath, uncertain of the consequences that may follow.

Senator Kueider Fights Expulsion, Citing Constitutional Violations

Washington D.C. ⁢ – Senator Richard Kueider is challenging his recent⁢ expulsion from the Senate, arguing that the process violated his constitutional rights and the⁤ chamber’s own rules. Kueider, who was removed from office on Thursday in a 61-6 vote,⁤ filed an appeal with the Chamber Contencioso administrativa, claiming he was denied due⁤ process.

Kueider’s legal team asserts that the expulsion violated the Constitution, which prohibits the removal of a senator without a trial.They also argue that Kueider was not given the chance to present a defense and that a commission, as⁢ required by Senate regulations, was not formed to investigate the allegations against ‌him.

“Senator Kueider was denied ‌his fundamental right to ‌a fair hearing,” said his attorney. “The Senate’s actions were hasty and lacked the necessary procedural safeguards.”

The expulsion stemmed from allegations of misconduct against Kueider, ⁤which have not been publicly disclosed. The‌ Senate session, attended by 67 of the 72 members, saw overwhelming support for Kueider’s ‍removal.

This case raises vital ​questions about the balance of⁢ power between the legislative branch and individual senators’ rights. Kueider’s appeal will likely be closely watched as it navigates the legal system.

Milei Condemns Senate‍ Session, Calls‍ Kueider Expulsion “Invalid”

“I ​can‍ confirm that dr. Villarruel was notified,” Milei asserted. “The official document […] was received by her⁤ on Tuesday.”
