Prada recalled that at the time, the president of Bolivia, Luis Arce, warned about a “judicial persecution” for “politically outlaw sister Cristina Fernández”.

He also considered that proceedings such as the one brought against Fernández “They are ways that are sought to damage democracy when it is not at the service of the interests of small groups.”

The ties between Argentina and Bolivia come from the Governments of Evo Morales (2006-2019) and Nestor Kirchner (2003-2007) and his wife and widow Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (2007-2015) and now Luis Arce and the current Argentine president, Alberto Fernandez.

Fernández was sentenced this Tuesday to six years in prison and perpetual disqualification from holding public office in a trial for irregularities in the concession of road works during the Kirchner governments (2003-2015).

The judges found her guilty of the crime of fraudulent administration of public funds, but they acquitted her on the charges for alleged illicit association.

The sentence arranged for Fernández in the so-called “Cause Road” It is less than the 12-year prison term that the Prosecutor’s Office had requested last August in the final arguments of this process.

Cristina Fernández announced that she will appeal the ruling and blamed it on a “judicial mafia” Already “a parastatal system” dominated by him “economic and media power” that condemns him for his “commitment to the rights of the people”.
