Argentina: Huge Crowd Bids Farewell to Fernandez
  • 8 years ago
Hundreds of thousands of Argentinians packed the Plaza de Mayo in Buenos Aires Wednesday evening to bid farewell to outgoing president Cristina Fernandez. It was a massive show of support for both Fernandez and the progressive policies implemented in the past 12 years of Front for Victory governments. Fernandez spoke of the legacy of her presidency, specifically leaving the country debt-free and the recovery of 119 missing grandchildren stolen by the military dictatorship from their forcibly disappeared parents. teleSUR
