ARGENTINA: Book Claims Nestor Makes The Decisions, Even Punched Cristina For Defying Him.

M.PRESS/ BY Matthew Campbell /     A new unauthorized biography of President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner by journalist Sylvina Walger, describes Nestor Kirchner, the former president, as a “parallel president” who makes all the important decisions for his wife Cristina, angers easily when defied, even punching Cristina for not following his will. Nestor is described as “mean, petty, vengeful and envious,” while Cristina is portrayed as being obsessed with her appearance, changing her outfit three times a day. Kirchner supporters dismiss it as a crude, politically motivated smear.
