Introduction | The role of the USSR and the PCA in the Argentine-Cuban alliance between 1976-1983 facing Jimmy Carter | Argentina and Cuba in the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), 1976-1983 | Pinochet yes, Videla no: Cuba’s role vis-à-vis the different treatment of the Argentinean and Chilean military dictatorships in Geneva | Exchange of votes at the UN reflecting «the cordial relations existing between the two countries» | How much of a human rights advocate are Argentinean organizations?
 

The Memory, Truth and Justice policy regarding human rights violations and state terrorism during the last military dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983) finds, among its exceptions, the relations during that period with the Cuban government of Fidel Castro. There are several documented examples of this de facto alliance between a communist dictatorship, the Cuban one, and an extreme right-wing and anticommunist dictatorship, the Argentine one; and since it is excluded by the traditional human rights organizations from the Memory, their partial use of it becomes evident, as does something that very few dare to question them: their biased view with anti-democratic characteristics.
