Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, the most influential political figure of the last two decades in Argentina, yesterday assumed the reins of opposition Peronism, which she hopes to reorganize to confront the government of far-right Javier Milei. Fernández de Kirchner, 71 years old and facing a conviction for fraudulent administration, now presides over the Justicialista Party, a position he arrives at one day after the first anniversary of the Milei government, against whom he launched harsh criticism. We Argentines do not deserve this. We have to work for something betterstated the former president, when rejecting the economic policy of the current president. The former vice president also downplayed the consistent decline in inflation – which in November reached 2.4 percent monthly, its lowest level since July 2020 – and stated: what Argentina is experiencing is older than the sun.
