Historic Perón Residence Reclaimed by Argentinian Youth
Buenos Aires: Historic Perón Residence Reclaimed Amidst Political Tensions On June 7th, 2025, a group of young activists from the Movimiento Nacional successfully reclaimed a building in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that holds significant historical value as the former residence of iconic Argentinian leaders Juan Perón and Eva Perón. The event has sparked renewed debate about the country's political past and present. The building was the site of a bombing on June 16, 1955, a date that remains deeply etched in the nation's memory. Juan Grabois, a prominent Argentinian lawyer and activist, captured the event on video, expressing his support for the youth's actions and condemning the government's recent attempt to close "Un Café con Perón," a cultural center located nearby. "They wanted to steal our memory," Grabois stated in the video, referring to the government's actions. The video shows the youth group raising their fists and celebrating the building's reclamation. The incident has highlighted the ongoing political tensions in Argentina and the importance of preserving historical sites. The building's future remains uncertain, but the youth's actions have reignited a national conversation about heritage and memory.
