Kicillof was confronted about insecurity in Luján and responded with an aggressive "TAKE IT!"

The Kirchnerist governor of the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, had a tense moment during his exit from the mass of Pope Leo XIV in Luján, when a young man approached him with the apparent intention of taking a photograph and ended up confronting him about insecurity in the Buenos Aires territory. In response to the questioning, the provincial leader avoided answering about the situation and limited himself to throwing out an aggressive "Get lost!" while running away from the scene.

The episode was recorded in a video that shows how the young man managed to approach the governor peacefully amid his walk after the religious ceremony. What initially seemed like a request for a photograph quickly turned into a demand directed at the highest authority responsible for the violence and crimes affecting the residents of Buenos Aires.

"Kicillof, the Province is a bloodbath, what do you have to say to the people?", the young man directly asked, seeking a response from the governor regarding the security situation. Without stopping to answer the question or offer explanations, the Kirchnerist leader replied "Get lost!" and continued to walk away, ending the exchange.

The governor's reaction once again highlighted his attitude towards the questions he receives during public appearances. This time, the inquiry was related to one of the main responsibilities of his administration: ensuring the safety of the residents of Buenos Aires, a matter that the young man sought to address directly and that went unanswered during the brief confrontation.

The episode recalled another awkward moment that Kicillof experienced on September 23 in New York, when journalist Silvina Sterin Pensel tried to learn his position on the war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. During that visit to Columbia University, the governor avoided taking a stance despite the reporter's insistence. "It's an ambush, it's an ambush", he maintained at the time, while members of his team intervened.

Once again, Kicillof chose to escape from an uncomfortable question instead of responding, an attitude he had already shown towards the journalist in New York and repeated in Luján, this time in response to a demand regarding insecurity in the province he governs.
