Irma Leites reappeared this Tuesday during the presentation of the book The horizon, noiseless conversations between Sanguinetti and Mujica, which was presented in the Blue Room of the Municipality of Montevideo. While the former Colorado president was speaking, seven members of the Plenary Memory and Justice collective burst in with posters containing the faces of people assassinated prior to the military dictatorship.
At the time, Sanguinetti was Minister of Education and Culture. “Don’t forget (these people). They were murdered while Sanguinetti was a minister and Mujica knows everything,” Leites told The Observer.
