The rising inequalities, made even starker due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, are a symptom of the failed economic system that prioritises profit over people and impoverishes people. It is very important to look at the impact of the erosion of public systems through privatisation and financialisation and resulting human rights violations and abuses.

Published on March 15, 2023We note that the Expert pointed out the seriousness of the fact that in 40 years of democracy, the Argentine State, which tried those responsible for the last civil-military dictatorship, has not implemented any mechanism to find the truth in relation to the foreign debt taken by the dictatorship itself. For at least 30 years there has been a social demand to audit foreign debt and cancel the debt contracted by the dictatorship, because it is not legitimate.

Published on March 15, 2023Destacamos que la Experta ha señalado la gravedad del hecho de que en 40 años de democracia el Estado argentino, que juzgó a los responsables de la última dictadura cívico-militar, no implementó ningún mecanismo para hallar la verdad en relación a la deuda externa tomada por la misma dictadura. Desde hace al menos 30 años ha habido un reclamo social de que se audite la deuda externa y que no se pague la deuda contraída por la dictadura, porque no es legítima.
