Who are the main people being investigated in the ANDIS corruption case and what are the charges against them?
Authoritarians don’t like this
The practice of professional and critical journalism is an essential pillar of democracy. This is why it bothers those who believe they are the bearers of the truth.
Bad time for the kind of ideas you always implement, right?
Yes, a challenge. It’s a challenging time. I don’t know if this is a bad time; It’s times. I always see opportunities in these times, so I take it as a challenge, like a desperate rapture.
Tell us about all the cases you handle, the complaints you follow up on, and the main challenges you face.
One of the most recent challenges we have faced since then Civil Coalition It is the investigation committee into the Libra case, headed by the representative Maximiliano Ferraro. It is a committee that investigates the heart of power: the president, his sister, and a group of beneficiaries. There we spent three months of wonderful activity, with of course many obstacles. This is what we highlight most, because there was a coincidence between the judicial authority and the political authority, such that we were not able to advance much in this body.
We are working on other cases, of course, which we will not announce until we report the case. As a result of the Libra case commission, next week we will file a criminal complaint against the Minister of Justice himself and the President of the Court. Anti-Corruption Office who, for other reasons, does not approve of his administration. Of course, it’s an organization that, depending on the executive itself, has not worked well overall, but under the supervision of Doctor Alejandro… Malik It’s really almost a scandal how they work.
We deal with many issues at the same time. Sometimes reality gets the better of us, because we stop the ball everywhere. With a mass much smaller than the one we will have now in House of RepresentativesWe will try to stay active as always.
The Civil Coalition has been at the forefront in all reports of corruption cases, not only financial, but sometimes institutional. If you compare this current challenging era with the era of Kirchnerism and Minimism, even from the point of view of memory, what constants do you find? What differences do you find?
There are a few differences. They’re more in style and form, but the money ways are still there. We are clear that ANDIS is one money road that connects many dots. Perhaps the topic these days will be diverted from other issues that we have raised historically, such as football. Czech Tapia. But I think today they use it more as a smokescreen so as not to talk, for example, about ANDIS and links Fred Machado With senators preparing to take the oath, as is the case with Representative Lorena. villaverde.
I think they have something in common. We always say, above political parties, there are businesses that pass from hand to hand, and funds pass from hand to hand. But until now, there has been no government in recent decades that has made the issue of corruption a central issue, an issue that erodes the entire administration. They may reduce the state, but they do not touch corruption.
We have reported many cases. Just a few months ago, we denounced, in relation to the free market they promote in defense of competition, the monopoly on the supply of ankle bracelets. This is under a government and security minister who are now calling for the free market and the end of monopolies, which is false. They submitted a tender to Mr. Mario. Montotomodified accordingly, so that he can continue to do this work, and they have purchased thousands of bracelets for Ministry of Security and Ministry of Justicealthough there was a Brazilian company I contacted, which offered this at a third of its value, and had a very good reputation, for example, in Chile, from which I also learned about how this company works.
That is, we are continuing with the same matrix of Carlos’s government. Soft Onwards. It changes hands, nothing more, speech and aesthetics. In this same program, all the references mentioned by the current president show how aesthetics have changed at this time, even for his deputies.
Eduardo Reina: “We are in a country that is accustomed to corruption
I just used the number that some complaints are used as a smokescreen for other, more serious complaints. Menem said that when you encounter a problem, what you should do is create another problem that covers the previous one. In the case of ANDIS, where the original protagonist was the president’s sister, this role was taken by others, such as Diego Spagnuolo. Do you find there is a matrix where these other characters replace the president’s sister as the main protagonist, with some intent on the part of the presidential communications system itself?
No, I don’t see that. We reported on Lady Karina. the following In March, due to a worsening incident. Prosecutor Eduardo also has that complaint. TaianoWhich focuses all the complaints, even accumulated with the Libra issue. When the second and third lines of the main areas of this government continue to maintain segments Campora And former officials like, there is a definition there, there is continuity. They did not eliminate that.
We are conducting a survey of all these officials, so that it becomes clear what the continuity of the funds is and how they continue to be managed. They are officials, they are lobbyists, and they are not actually from the government; They are the ones who bind or link one government to another, and that is why they leave them. Spagnuolo would be a classic case of this, anyway.

This will be the case with Miguel Ángel Calvet, because Spagnuolo entered politics directly with Miley.
Yes, but he was an official in previous governments; It was always about the job. Calvet is the most relevant case, yes. They did not do a full survey of the legislation, and see which was good and which was bad, to bring it up to date, but they did not do any survey to clean up the administration of all these people going around.
Before La Libertad Avanza’s victory in October, Karina Miley was the central figure. Today this is no longer the case. I can’t help but think that the outcome of the election has some influence on the choice of agenda, for which the media also bears responsibility. Maybe subjectivity is different in the face of an overwhelming or very surprising electoral victory than it was before, when the government was supposedly on its way to self-destruct, right? The most important person who is supposed to benefit from the last 3% of the accusations, Karina Miley, has disappeared from the scene.
It has become fairly well established that votes prove corruption. We kind of internalize that idea. We continue to stress that this should not be the case, and that this does not enable us to do so. The government feels itself able to continue doing things it might be doing wrong because of the support of the votes. The opposition now feels guilty for being this way, and that they have to explain why they have to be this way, and if so, they allow themselves to be told that they are a coup leader, and that they want to end this government. The government believes that votes enable it to continue corruption, but this is not the case
Even against the grain, we will continue to investigate corruption because we believe it is a terrible problem. In every adversity that we Argentines face, from a train accident to the issue of the disabled, there is the hand of corruption. The title that best represents this era is predator watch, to Giuliano Dampoli. I like to stick with this title as a summary of what we see happening now and will also happen.
