What you need to know:

  • The MP could be seen pulling down the shirt of his wife and kissing one of her breasts.
  • Confused, Ameri, 47, tried to apologise, saying that he did not think he was connected to the internet at that particular moment.

  • "Here in the centre of the country the connection is very poor. My partner came out of the bathroom, and I asked her how her implants were doing and I kissed them, because she had surgery ten days ago to have them put in." 

An Argentine lawmaker was suspended Thursday after  kissing his partner's breasts during a parliamentary session being held by videoconference, a scene that quickly went viral on social media.

As another MP was making his address on a giant video screen installed in parliament, which also showed other participants in their homes, Juan Emilio Ameri could be seen fondling and kissing the breasts of a woman sitting next to him.
