Overview

  • Fresh recordings attributed to ex-ANDIS chief Diego Spagnuolo aired on C5N add claims about internal rifts and reference Sandra Pettovello, Federico Sturzenegger and Diana Mondino.
  • Government allies stepped up denials, with Martín Menem calling the case a pre-election operation and asserting the audio content is false, while Eduardo “Lule” Menem issued a written rebuttal.
  • Javier Milei avoided addressing the case in public events, publicly praised Karina Milei and responded to supporters with the line “les estamos afanando los choreos,” while attacking the opposition.
  • Opposition blocs set a joint committee session today to question the Health Minister and the ANDIS interventor, plan to hear Chief of Cabinet Guillermo Francos on Wednesday, and advance investigative commissions and interpellations including for Sturzenegger.
  • The judicial probe led by Judge Sebastián Casanello and Prosecutor Franco Picardi remains active with prior raids and seizures linked to Droguería Suizo Argentina, whose state contracts rose sharply in 2025.
