The Executive Vice President, Delcy Rodríguez, assured that the Pink House in Argentina “has become the colonized house and dragged into the lowest anti-national and anti-Latin American interests”, giving his opinion to the message posted by the Argentine president, Javier Milei, who decided to vindicate the figure Christopher Columbus to celebrate the “Day of la Raza”, even against the majorities in Argentina.
In the message, which was accompanied by a video, it is stated that, with the arrival of Columbus to America in 1492, “a new era of progress and civilization opened in the new world.”
Given this, the Executive Vice President highlighted that “our people commemorate this October 12 the resistance of indigenous peoples against the colonialist barbarity that invaded them, enslaved them and plundered our immense wealth. It is not surprising then that Milei, just as he supports the genocide of our heroic native peoples, supports and rejoices in today’s genocide against the Palestinian people, being a conspicuous defender of the Zionist and criminal regime of Israel. “The Argentine people will rescue their path of dignity and Homeland, they will honor our ancestral memories!” he expressed in a message in his vanal of Telegram.
It should be noted that in Argentina, the name “Race Day” was modified by decree, by former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, in 2010 to rename the day as Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity.
