*Argentina: Top Court Bars Kirchner From Office, Upholds Jail Term*
Argentina’s top court has effectively barred two-term former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner from holding public office and upheld a six-year prison sentence, likely bringing an end to one of the country’s most controversial and high-profile political careers.
Kirchner, 72, a polarizing opposition figure and leftist president from 2007 to 2015, was convicted by a trial court in 2022 for a fraud scheme that steered public road work projects in the Patagonia to a close ally while she was president.
