Grupo-de-Puebla-768x576
Buenos Aires, Dec 9 (Prensa Latina) The Puebla Group postponed an international meeting in solidarity with Argentinian Vice President Cristina Fernández because the head of the Senate tested positive for Covid-19, local media reported on Friday.

According to a communiqué from that organization published by Página 12, the former president is in good health condition in El Calafate, in Santa Cruz province.

The meeting scheduled for Monday at the Kirchner Cultural Center in Buenos Aires will take place on December 19.

Vice President Fernández, President Alberto Fernández, former Presidents Evo Morales (Bolivia), Rafael Correa (Ecuador), Pepe Mujica (Uruguay), José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero (Spain), and Ernesto Samper (Colombia) will attend the event.

Second Vice-President of the Government of Spain, Yolanda Díaz; the president of the MORENA party of Mexico, Mario Delgado; and the lawyer of the Latin American Council for Justice and Democracy Gisele Ribocom, will also participate.

The event’s main slogan is “From the military to the judicial party, threats to democracy.”

It was convened to denounce that the Argentinian vice president is the victim of a political trial orchestrated by the right wing to remove her from the democratic debate.

On Tuesday 6, the Oral Federal Court 2 imposed the former head of State a six-year sentence in prison and perpetual disqualification from holding public posts for alleged fraudulent administration to the detriment of public administration.
