Argentina: Commemoration Noche de los Lapices

President Christina Fernandez de Kirchner today attended an event in La Plata to commemorate the victims of the Noche de los Lapices. She was accompanied by the President of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo, Hebe Bonafini, President of the Abuelas, Estela Carlotto, survivors Emilce Moler (see yesterday's post) and Pablo Diaz, and others including current students of the Colegio Nacional de La Plata.

The President commented that the renovation of the school was "not only an architectural work, not just the recuperation of a national monument, but the reparation of our own memory".
