Former Argentine President Cristina Kirchner has once again faced trial in the 'Notebooks' case, the largest corruption case in the country's history. She accuses the prosecutors of staging an 'operetta' and claims the notebooks were 'rewritten 1,500 times'.
According to the accusation, there was a criminal structure that allowed officials from the Ministry of Planning and other areas to withdraw cash at fixed points, receive it in official facilities, and finally send it to the higher political level.
Kirchner is attempting to discredit this new trial by using the same playbook: she accuses the prosecutors of mounting a 'show,' claims the notebooks were 'rewritten 1,500 times,' and suggests the case is being revived 'when it's necessary to cover up the adjustment.'
However, her position contrasts with the weight of the evidence in the case, which includes the testimonies of her own former officials. The trial, which began on November 6, 2025, will be long and complex. Kirchner, who is already convicted in another corruption case, is appearing before the court as the head of a criminal association and co-author of over two hundred bribery offenses.
