Argentina’s Parliament investigates the scam around Cryptocurrency $ Libra. The Congress on Tuesday decided to set up an inquiry committee. Memcoin was advertised by President Xavier Milli, there were millions of damage shortly before. High government officials should testify in the matter before the Congress.
There were 128 votes for Tuesday’s decision, 93 no votes and seven restraint. The government initially failed with an attempt to stop the session, and later to reduce the support for the initiative. The decision was finally accepted with the votes of opposition MPs of Peronistic, Left and Centric Blocks. “We will determine the political responsibilities of civil servants in Parliament,” in an online post by the opposition MP of Estaban Paulon from the Social Democratic Partido Socialista Party.
Next blow for the government
The committee’s order, which will be formed on 23 April, is La nakion according to daily newspaper “Investigating the sequence of events in relation to the promotion and distribution of cryptocurrency $ Libra and determining the degree of participation and political responsibility of President Javier Meeli, his sister and the general secretary of the Presidium, Kareena Mile, the spokesman of the Presidium, Manual Adorney, and all of them, for all, as well as Luis Caputo.
The establishment of the inquiry committee is the second blow to the government within a week. Last Thursday, the Senate rejected two judges from the Supreme Court, nominated and then appointed Milli.
The Parliament has decided to invite the Minister of Economics, Minister of Justice, Cabinet Head and the head of the National Securities Commission responsible for the control of capital markets in relation to cryptoskandal. The $ Libra case is already investigated by the courts in Argentina and the United States.

Cryptoscandal with millions of losses
About two months after the Crypto fraud scam, President Miley is under pressure on the matter. In mid -February, he campaigned for cryptocurrency, a few minutes after the construction of only $ Libra Memcoin. He wrote, “The purpose of this private project is to promote the growth of Argentina’s economy and finance small companies and Argentina companies,” he wrote, shared a link for a purchase option. Estimated 40,000 people actually bought $ Libra. Memcoin quickly gained value, but then collapsed within a few hours. Overseas most investors lost several hundred million US dollars in total. Miley then extinguished his original posting and explained that he “did not know about the details of the project.” He rejected criticism of his advertising campaign in a fast way.
The action around $ Libra reminds of such a “rug bridge”. This reflects a fraud type in which the money kept by the bookies dealt with a cryptocurrency and thus came out of the dust. In Argentina, there were also voices, who said that the President could violate laws with his advertisement, as it is illegal for elected officials to advertise private activities. As a result, the President and the civil servants also accompanied the people around them to with the people who were Libra with those who were $ Libra.
Calls were made from the opposition after an office. In the United States, there are also allegations of scam fraud. In February, the opposition of Argentina also failed with an attempt to set up a committee to investigate the case in the Senate. Now he got success in the Congress, which is also due to a change in the power situation in Parliament: East -Rights -Rudhiist President Maurisio Makri, who has helped Miley help in power, no longer supports it without reservation.
