Following his participation at the South American Common Market (Mercosur) Summit at the Foreign Ministry in Buenos Aires, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva paid a visit to former Argentine President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (CFK) at the apartment in the Constitución neighborhood where she is serving a six-year prison sentence for overpriced public works contracts and bid rigging, under the house arrest modality. CFK later described Lula’s visit as “a political act of solidarity,” drawing parallels between their experiences with what she called “lawfare” and judicial persecution.
