I'm Argentinian and this is really unlikely. Political parties representing more than 1/2 of the members of the local equivalent of the "house of representatives" (first stage to make this happen) have already said they wouldn't vote for this. Like in the USA; each individual legislator can vote against their block; but the amount of these cases would be unprecedented (and then it also needs to be approved by 2/3 of the senate)
This is the source, it's in Spanish though. They ask for a thorough investigation; but are very dismissive of the case for an impeachment. This is a political party that roughly has 30% of the seats; the president's own political party has also about 30%; https://www.clarin.com/politica/escandalo-cripto-pro-pide-investigacion-rigurosa-transparente-descarta-juicio-politico_0_SzYhyyVxfb.html https://www.clarin.com/politica/escandalo-cripto-pro-pide-in...
- ranyume 2y agoMore context. Other parties already said that impeachment is irresponsible at this stage. There are procedures to be done before considering that and the aim of the other powers (congress and justice) right now is to correct whatever is wrong with the executive's decision-making procedures. Obviously this would erode the executive's power as a result.
