Thousands Mark 30th Anniversary of Coup in Argentina

HeadlineMar 27, 2006

In Argentina, thousands gathered this weekend to condemn the 30th anniversary of the U.S.-backed coup that resulted in the deaths and disappearances of tens of thousands. “The Mothers are here with you, the people, and we will continue to be with you in this fight until we know what happened to each and every one of our children,” said Marta Vazquez of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo. “What was their final destiny? Who gave the order? Who executed it? Because it’s the least we could demand to know.”
