Argentina welcomes the acceptance by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) of the invitation extended by the Argentine Republic to hold an Extraordinary Period of Sessions in Buenos Aires, on 22-26 May.

This is yet another token of Argentina’s commitment to the Inter-American Human Rights System and of its conviction that permanent dialogue is a fundamental tool for further progress in the promotion and protection of human rights.

Argentina wishes to reaffirm its long-standing support for the outstanding work that IACHR and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights have been carrying out in defence of fundamental freedoms in our Continent.
