Estela de Carlotto: “We will not allow Cristina Fernández de Kirchner to be condemned”

Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner received human rights organizations on Monday in the Senate, among which was the head of Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo Estela de Carlotto, who said after the meeting that they should not be allowed to “condemn” the former president in the framework of the cause known as “Vialidad”. After the meeting, Carlotto told the press that the vice president told them “how she is persecuted” and considered that the trials against her are “because she is a woman.” “We don’t want a woman who ruled for so many years, with so many merits, to be persecuted. It was a historic moment,” said the head of Abuelas.

In turn, in reference to the prosecutor Diego Luciani said that “they pay him to say what he says and he does it and this time, because he is a woman and is a very valuable woman.” And he questioned: “Since this character of justice wants to sentence her to twelve years in prison, it is like killing her in life.” In relation to the mobilization last Saturday where the City Police repressed militants who were going to support the former president, the head of Abuelas said that the people are with Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and stressed that “young people above all, support her without a flag and do not raise any banner to identify themselves.”
