Argentina’s main human rights groups have announced they will boycott Barack Obama’s visit to the country, which coincides with the 40th anniversary of a military coup that led to the deaths of thousands of people.
Martial law was imposed on 24 March 1976, ushering in seven years of military rule during which Argentina’s generals made their victims disappear by throwing them alive from helicopters into the freezing waters of the Atlantic.
On Wednesday, Obama repeated a pledge to declassify US military and intelligence documents about America’s role in the military dictatorship. The new documents will be the first to be released since 2000, when Bill Clinton ordered the declassification of around 4,000 documents – some of which have been used in ongoing trials against former military officers.
“I hope this gesture helps rebuild trust that may have been lost between our two countries,” said Obama.
