Members of Argentina’s public media and organizations will accompany the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo today in their 2,380th march in Buenos Aires.
As every Thursday, at 3:30 p.m. local time, the women who have been fighting for more than 40 years for memory, truth, and justice will march to the vicinity of the Casa Rosada to remember the more than 30 thousand detainees who disappeared during the last civil-military dictatorship in this country (1976-1983) and to demand respect for human rights.
On this occasion, members of the news agency Télam, the radio station AM530, and the State Workers Association will also participate.
In a statement, the Mothers assured that the struggle continues and pointed out that the support obtained in the second round of the general elections by the leader of La Libertad Avanza, Javier Milei, is not a blank check.
