President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner has made her first official appearance since retaking office today, speaking via a pre-recorded video in which she thanked the Argentine public for supporting her during the head of state’s medically-enforced absence.
«It was a tough time, but here we are working as usual,» CFK asserted, speaking about the brain surgery that left her unable to perform official duties for over a month.
The president also took the time to thank Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo leader Hebe de Bonafini for a bunch of roses given to her during her recovery, and showed the camera another present: a puppy named Simón, sent to Cristina from Venezuela.
