Argentina: Draft Resolution 2276-D-2025 requiring Executive Branch to submit investigations conducted by Anti-Corruption Office under Decree 114/2025 regarding virtual asset LIBRA to legislative body was introduced to Chamber of Deputies

On 12 May 2025, the Draft Resolution 2276-D-2025, requesting the Executive Branch to submit the findings of investigations conducted by the Anti-Corruption Office (OA) under Decree 114/2025 concerning the virtual asset Libra to the legislative body, specifically the Special Investigative Commission, was introduced to the Chamber of Deputies. The Resolution recalls that the OA was mandated by the decree to investigate potential irregularities or acts of corruption involving the crypto asset and to file judicial complaints where appropriate. It raises concerns about the absence of transparency in the process, referencing public statements and media reports suggesting that no investigations were initiated. The request is grounded in constitutional and international anti-corruption obligations, including the Inter-American Convention against Corruption and the United Nations Convention against Corruption.
