Criminal Complaint Against Argentine President

Lawyer Gregorio Dalbón filed a criminal complaint against President Javier Milei for stating that "saying he will seek out everyone who thinks differently, to the last corner, is a crime." Dalbón expressed his opinion that the president lacks the capacity to be President of the Nation.

The complaint was presented to federal judge Daniel Rafecas and the prosecutor for the case will be Paloma Ochoa in Argentina, based on a publication that Milei made on his social media. Additionally, there are plans to take the complaint to the International Criminal Court in The Hague and to the Inter-American Convention on Human Rights on an international level.

Dalbón stated that Milei's attitude seeks to impose a single thought, violating international treaties and the Argentine Constitution. He believes that the president should apologize for his words and allow a democratic environment where diversity of thought is respected.

The lawyer argues that Milei's statements incite collective violence and violate fundamental principles. The complaint also extends to international instances such as The Hague Court and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, aiming to protect democracy and freedom of expression in Argentina.

Dalbón emphasizes the importance of Milei being aware of the impact of his words and retracting, avoiding sowing discord in society. He criticized the explanation given by the Chief of Cabinet, Guillermo Francos, regarding the President's statements, calling it "ridiculous."

In summary, the complaint filed by Gregorio Dalbón seeks to hold President Milei accountable for his statements that undermine diversity of thought and promote violence, both nationally and internationally. Dalbón advocates for a change in attitude from Milei to preserve democracy and fundamental rights in Argentina.
