The Clean Record project, which will be addressed in the Senate, has generated mixed opinions among Argentine politicians. Kirchnerism has already expressed its rejection of the initiative, while Javier Milei, president of La Libertad Avanza, has highlighted the need for clear rules and real punishments for corrupt individuals in Argentina.
Milei has criticized those who pointed to the government for the delay in advancing the project, noting that they spent seven years without approving it. In an interview with Neura Media, the president questioned the stance of those who now show support for Clean Record, labeling them as "republican phantoms."
The president of La Libertad Avanza clarified that the draft of the project bears his name and denied any attempts on his part to obstruct its approval. Clean Record aims to prevent individuals with convictions for serious crimes such as corruption or gender-based violence from running as candidates in elections.
Regarding possible electoral agreements, Milei praised deputy Silvia Lospennato, a proponent of the project from the PRO, although he did not confirm whether there will be collaboration with that political space. He emphasized that many leaders of the PRO share the same vision and understand the importance of moving forward on this path.
The Senate will debate the Clean Record project this Wednesday, and it is estimated that it has at least 38 votes in favor, which would ensure its approval as law. According to Milei, this project represents a fundamental change in the way politics is conducted in Argentina, prioritizing transparency and ethics in the exercise of power.
