Cristina Fernández de Kirchner reappeared in an act of delivery of an honorable mention to the Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo

The Senate of the Nation today gave the Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo an honorable mention called “Juana Azurduy”. At the close of the act of distinction, Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner highlighted “the courage” of the grandmothers and assured that “there is no higher honor than the memory of a people.” The hall chanted for the candidacy of the former president: “Cristina president, Cristina president,” sang the attendees. There is no higher honor than the memory of a people, than the one that history gives you when you fulfilled your convictions, when you fulfilled society. The Grandmothers had the courage that we did not have so many other Argentines to face. They didn’t care because they are mothers and mothers don’t care more about being touched than a child. We will always carry them in our hearts,” said the Vice President in a tribute to the Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo, among which were the owner Estela de Carlotto and the founding members Sonia Torres de Parodi, Carmen Ledda Barreiro and Buscarita Imperí Roa. Cristina president, Cristina president,” chanted the attendees of the Senate when they presented the former president at the closing of the act. However, Fernández did not make electoral references and dedicated himself to remembering the human rights policy promoted by Néstor Kirchner: “he felt that he had fulfilled each and every one of the generation of which we were part, who followed his convictions, and that, if they were wrong, they were wrong with their body, not like others and those who put things are the people and the people. ” he recalled.” That Never Again is serious because the horror that was experienced today would not be tolerated by Argentina or any country in the world. Today there are other, more underhanded ways of closing the dreams of those who believe that a different world may be possible. They are no longer tanks, they pass in the courts,” said the Vice President.In that sense, she stressed that those who believe that the repressors “failed because they were sentenced to life imprisonment” are wrong, so she warned that these effects are seen “in the discipline of society and political leadership, who say ‘This cannot be done’, ‘Against the IMF you can not go’; they have disciplined society, and Néstor Kirchner was undisciplined,” he insisted. Present were Interior Ministers Eduardo “Wado” de Pedro; Defense, Jorge Taiana; Justice, Martín Soria; Culture, Tristán Bauer and the Secretary of Human Rights, Horacio Pietragalla.La Vice President will speak again this Friday in Río Negro, where she will give a lecture after receiving an Honorary Doctorate and is expected to talk about current issues.
