Russia Summons Argentine Ambassador Over Bullrich’s Claim of Russian Role in Karina Milei Audio Leak

Moscow requests an official explanation over Bullrich’s assertion of Russian involvement in the recordings case.

Overview

  • The Russian Foreign Ministry called in Ambassador Enrique Ignacio Ferrer Vieyra on September 8 to protest the allegation and describe it as unfounded.
  • In an official statement, Russia said the claim lacked evidence and asked to receive a full explanation from Argentina as soon as possible.
  • Moscow cited the bilateral mutual legal assistance treaty in criminal matters as the proper channel for any cooperation between the two states.
  • Russia’s embassy in Buenos Aires had earlier rejected the accusation, warning that seeing “Russian spies on every corner” is irrational and destructive.
  • Patricia Bullrich linked the leak of recordings involving Karina Milei and former ANDIS chief Diego Spagnuolo to people tied to Russian intelligence and suggested possible Venezuelan involvement, while lawyer Franco Bindi denied any role.
