Bullrich on 50th Anniversary of Coup: Violence Cannot Be a Political Tool

Meanwhile, the government released a video commemorating the 50th anniversary of the 1976 coup d'état, once again reinforcing its official stance of equating state violence with that of guerrilla organizations in the 1970s.

The video features the testimonies of a 'recovered granddaughter' who was adopted by a police officer convicted of crimes against humanity, and the son of an army colonel who was kidnapped and murdered by the People's Revolutionary Army in 1974.

Buenos Aires, March 24 (NA) – The head of the La Libertad Avanza (LLA) bloc of senators, Patricia Bullrich, stated on Tuesday that, on the 50th anniversary of the coup, 'there is something that is not negotiable,' and that is that 'violence and terror can never be the weapon to impose ideas.'

'Democracy and the Republic are the foundation upon which everything is built. Defending them is an obligation,' expressed Bullrich on her social media.
