The Government will convene extraordinary sessions for the second half of January

The national government will convene extraordinary sessions for the second half of January, confirmed Thursday the spokeswoman of the Presidency, Gabriela Cerruti. Next week the call will come out,” the official said. And he announced that the agenda will include, as a central issue, the request for impeachment of the members of the Supreme Court promoted by President Alberto Fernández, and projects of an economic nature that will be defined in the coming days. In his usual press conference at Casa Rosada, Cerruti deepened the government’s criticism of the highest court, stating that “it is arbitrary” and that with its rulings “it complicates people’s lives.” At the same time, he described as “historic” the decision of the president and a group of Justicialist governors to promote the impeachment of Horacio Rosatti, head of the highest court, and the rest of its members, Carlos Rosenkrantz, Juan Carlos Maqueda and Ricardo Lorenzetti.In Casa Rosada, Fernández met with governors and garnered the support, initially, of 12 provincial governors. That number was later reduced to 11, as Gustavo Bordet of Entre Rios backtracked. In addition, doubts arose regarding the position of Chubut Governor Mariano Arcioni, given that his signature was included in the document released by the Casa Rosada, despite the fact that he is on leave. However, the government confirmed that his deputy, Ricardo Sastre, attended the meeting via Zoom and signed the initiative.
