In Argentina, a corruption scandal has engulfed the country, as prosecutors investigate an alleged kickback scheme involving government contracts under former President Néstor Kirchner and his widow and successor, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. Authorities have already arrested more than two dozen people and raided the home of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. She says the investigation is a political ploy by the right-wing administration of Argentine President Mauricio Macri, and she has compared her situation to the prosecution of Brazil’s former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
