Things are getting worse not better with the corruption. Argentina is actually going backwards with International corruption organizations.
Argentina fell five places in the ranking of the Perception of Corruption index carried out by the organization Transparency International, which year after year analyzes the performance of countries at a global level. The country went from 99th place in 2024 to 104th in 2025, with 36 points out of 100, in the second year of President Javier Milei's term. In this way it is ranked 106th among 182 nations.
The new report became known after the prosecution without preventive detention of the former head of the National Disability Agency (ANDIS), Diego Spagnuolo, in the case for corruption in the agency. Added to the Libra case and the resignation of Demian Reidel as head of Nucleoelectric Argentina amid suspicions of overpricing.
The organization warned, in the case of Argentina, that "investigations into alleged corruption in the management of funds for medicines for people with disabilities show similar risks for vulnerable groups." Argentina shares the position with Belize and Ukraine, and is above other countries such as Zambia, Lesotho, Gambia, and the Dominican Republic.
Argentina ranks 19th out of 33 countries in America, where those with the best scores are Canada (75 points) in 16th place, and Uruguay (73 points) in 17th place. While Nicaragua and Venezuela are the countries with the worst ratings on the continent.
The president of Citizen Power, Martín D´Alessandro, said in this regard that "it is widely known that solid and socially efficient capitalist development is not obtained with magical passes in rhetoric and at the same time sweeping the earth under the carpet, but with adequate and sustained policies over time." He warned that "in the case of integrity, and in light of the available international evidence, these policies constitute an increasingly urgent outstanding debt."
While the executive director of Poder Ciudadano, Pablo Secchi, explained: "The bad news for Argentina in this index is related to the total absence of interest on the part of the Government in promoting anti-corruption policies."
Secchi made strong warnings to the Government regarding transparency, after the dissemination of a new Transparency International report: "Nothing was done in these two years to prevent and sanction corruption. To this are added the cases of $LIBRA and the National Disability Agency that, in addition to the suspicion of corruption, did not generate a forceful response from the Government."
