“Never again, never again,” repeated the crowd in memory of the coup d'état that deposed the three constitutional powers presided over in 1976
Tens of thousands of Argentines marched again to Buenos Aires’ Plaza de Mayo (Mayo Square) on Thursday, 46 years after the coup d'état that installed a dictatorship responsible for tens of thousands of disappearances, exiles and executions in clandestine centers.
Taty Almeida, from the humanitarian organization Mothers of Plaza de Mayo-Founding Line, closed the ceremony with the cry of “30,000 detainees-disappeared! present!”, after warning that ”we will not allow democracy to be damaged, since it was recovered (in 1983) this people has taken care of it forever“.
In an atmosphere of celebration for returning to the streets of the Argentine capital after the covid pandemic, which prevented this emblematic march from taking place in 2020 and 2021, the demonstrators demanded ”memory, truth and justice“.
”Never again, never again,“ repeated the crowd in memory of the coup d'état that deposed the three constitutional powers presided over in 1976 by Peronist María Estela Martínez de Perón.
