Deputy Marcela Pagano has filed a criminal complaint against Economy Minister Luis Caputo and the President of the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA), Santiago Bausili, regarding the management of $4 trillion raised in a public debt auction. Pagano alleged the existence of a 'black box' in the handling of public funds, questioning the transparency of their management.

In response, Luis Caputo defended the traceability of the funds and announced his intention to initiate a defamation suit against Pagano. The confrontation has heightened political tensions, with both sides presenting their positions on the administration of financial resources. Raúl Zamora, mentioned in the accusations, has not made any public statements on the matter.
