Overview
- Audios released by ex-ANDIS chief Diego Spagnuolo allege a scheme extracting about US$800,000 a month from medicine purchases and mention figures close to Karina Milei and Eduardo 'Lule' Menem.
- Opposition lawmakers filed to interpelate Karina Milei and Health Minister Mario Lugones and are pushing for a congressional investigative commission.
- The Disability and Social Action and Public Health committees summoned Lugones and ANDIS interventor Alejandro Vilches to explain the agency's situation this Tuesday.
- Chief of Cabinet Guillermo Francos dismissed the accusations as politically timed, defended Karina Milei, and said the government will leave the matter to the courts while insisting any proven offenders should face prosecution.
- Regional and party reactions widened the fallout, with the MID tying the case to past LLA campaign finance complaints in Catamarca and LLA legislator Adrián Brizuela branding the episode an 'opereta.'
