Santiago Muzio, a Franco-Argentine lawyer appointed by President Javier Milei's government in 2024, has vowed to eliminate "woke ideology" and "far-left ideology" from the prestigious Cité Universitaire residence in Paris. The City Hall of Paris has called on French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot to investigate Muzio's management, accusing him of expelling residents, removing a plaque honoring those who disappeared during Argentina's dictatorship, and hosting far-right meetings.
Paris City Hall claims residents live in constant fear and without freedom of expression during the 2025-2026 academic year. Muzio, however, insists his goal is to restore order and discipline, rejecting the Cité U's Charter of Values due to the Argentine government's recognition of two sexes: male and female. He also maintains that the far-right meetings were a rental of reception spaces to improve the residence's financial situation.
