In social networks circulate at least 2 photos that, it is pointed out, were taken on July 14, 2020 on the birthday of Fabiola Yáñez, the First Lady and partner of the President of the Nation, Alberto Fernández.La photo was much criticized on social networks, since at that time this type of social gatherings were prohibited, according to the presidential DNU 576/2020.The photos that circulate are 2 and, as Reverso was able to verify, are true.
What do the records of entry to the Quinta de Olivos SayFrom several days ago that the entrances to the Quinta de Olivos at night and during the validity of the Preventive and Mandatory Social Isolation (ASPO) are the subject of controversy on social networks. One of those visits occurred on the birthday of the First Lady, Fabiola Yáñez.Según emerges from the official records accessed by the organization Poder Ciudadano, on July 14, 2020, the day of Yáñez’s birthday, 9 people entered the presidential villa of Olivos at 9:30 p.m. and said goodbye around 2 a.m.: Fabiola’s advisors, Sofía Pacchi and Emanuel López -who is also a television host-, the actor Fernando Consagra; Rocío and Florencia Fernández; Santiago Basavilbaso; Stefania Dominguez; the colorist Federico Abraham and the stylist Carolina Marafioti.For his part, Santiago Cafiero referred to these incomes and explained: “All the entrances and the staff that has gone to the Quinta are work personnel”. However, only 2 of the group of people who entered Olivos on that date — Sofia Pacchi and Emanuel Lopez — are hired by the General Secretariat of the Presidency, according to the State Board of Directors. The rest are known to Yanez.The indications that prove that the photos are trueThe first photo was disseminated in “La Nación+” by journalist Eduardo Feinmann. There you can see, from left to right,: Yáñez, Pacchi, Domínguez, López, Consagra, Alberto Fernández and Rocío Fernández.Only 4 of them look at the camera, while the rest look to the left, as if another photo was being taken at that moment. In addition, the image is cut because on the left there is an arm that does not correspond to Yáñez.One of the indications that revealed the veracity of the photo, was the cake that was on the table of the diners made with pink flowers and an inscription that says “Petals Market”, whose name and logo coincides with a local that, as shown on its website, is dedicated to selling personalized chocolates adorned with petals. If you check the “Petals Market” Instagram page, the photos match the style of the cake and, 55 weeks ago, they posted a story with a photo of a cake identical to the one in the viral photo, with the inscription “Happy meets Fabi I love you” (sic).
The data was published by twitter user @gonziver and, at the time of publication of this note, the story is deleted. The second photo was broadcast by journalist Guadalupe Vázquez, also from the LN+ channel. There you can see more people than in the first image: the first 7 are joined by Federico Abraham, Carolina Marafioti, Santiago Basavilbaso and Florencia Fernández. Fernandez’s dog also appears, Dylan.Reverso consulted the Communication and Press area of the Presidency of the Nation to confirm if the photos are true. From there they did not deny both images and replied: “We have nothing of the alleged photo.” According to the regulations laid down during the quarantine, social gatherings were prohibited at the time Yáñez celebrated his birthday. “Social or family events in enclosed spaces and in people’s homes are prohibited, in all cases and regardless of the number of participants, except for the cohabiting group,” said presidential DNU 576/2020.And, in addition, it added: “The violation of this rule must be reported by the intervening authority so that the competent authority determines whether the crimes provided for in articles 205 and 239 of the Criminal Code of the Nation were committed.” This story is part of Reverso, the collaborative journalistic project that brings more than 100 media and technology companies closer to intensify the fight against disinformation during the campaign.
