Cristina Kirchner hired Lula da Silva's lawyer to strengthen the international strategy against his conviction for the Vialidad case

Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, former president of Argentina, has hired the lawyer of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, the former Brazilian president who is currently serving a prison sentence, to strengthen her international legal strategy against her conviction in the Vialidad case.
