Espert accuses Kicillof of potential criminality

National deputy José Luis Espert of La Libertad Avanza accused the province governor, Axel Kicillof, of being "potentially a criminal" for having handed over the province to criminals, which, according to him, has turned Buenos Aires into a place full of violence.

In statements to Radio Rivadavia, Espert expressed that Kicillof has put innocents in the hands of criminals and has allowed the latter to roam freely in the province. He criticized the governor's management, stating that the current situation has led the inhabitants of the province to live in fear due to insecurity.

The deputy, who will be a candidate in this year's legislative elections, highlighted that the electoral campaign will be marked by the discussion between two visions of the country. On one hand, the proposal of his party, led by Javier Milei, which promotes growth, reducing inflation, and integration into the world alongside prosperous countries. On the other hand, there is Kicillof's and kirchnerism's vision, which, according to Espert, turns Buenos Aires into a place ruled by drug traffickers, criminals, and fraudsters.

The deputy indicated that he is already working with President Milei and his team on a reform for the province that would be similar to the one being pushed at the national level. This reform would involve deregulating, reducing taxes and public expenditures, and providing education, health, and public works to citizens.
