15 years of anti-Peronist political power

In September of 1955 Aramburu participated in a military coup called the "Revolución Libertadora". He represented the hardliners, and quickly took the Presidency of the Argentina for himself (two months later, November 13, 1955), together with Admiral Isaac Rojas (designated Vice-President). The Revolución Libertadora (Spanish, Liberating Revolution) was a military uprising that ended the second presidential term of Juan Domingo Perón in Argentina, in 1955. ...


The "Revolucion Libertadora" overthrew Juan Domingo Perón due to international commercial factors, criticizing the protective nationalism of 1945-1955. One of the last incidents of this situation was the violent and public confrontations of Perón against the Ambassador of the United States of America, Spruille Braden. Juan Domingo Perón (October 8, 1895 – July 1, 1974) was an Argentine military officer and the President of Argentina from 1946 to 1955 and from 1973 to 1974. ...


Aramburu's military government prohibited Perón's return to the country, and later the Peronism party was barred from involvement in national elections. Known Peronists were persecuted and often imprisoned. Perón lived in exile until the 1970s.


After the first presidential succession (1958), Aramburu retired from military career and became part of Argentinian political life.


Then he ran for president in the elections of 1963, forming the political party "Union del Pueblo Argentino" (UDELPA, Union of the Argentine People), with an explicit slogan: "Vote UDELPA and HE won't return" ("Vote UDELPA y no vuelve"), referring to Perón.


With Peronism prohibited, the Presidential elections proclaimed Arturo Umberto Illia as the new president, with the team of Pedro Eugenio Aramburu–Horacio Thedy winning only third place. Arturo Umberto Illia (Pergamino, Buenos Aires, August 4, 1900 - Córdoba, January 18, 1983) was President of Argentina from October 12, 1963, to June 28, 1966. ...


Yet democracy was under military supervision, which maintained censorship of both Peronism and its leader. As a consequence of the fragile nature of the democratic process, Illia was quickly overthrown in 1966 by another military coup, led by General Juan Carlos Onganía. Juan Carlos Onganía Carballo (1914-1995) was a military president of Argentina from 29 June 1966 to 8 June 1970. ...


In all those 15 years, Pedro Eugenio Aramburu maintained a type of popularity, in newspapers and magazines. He was often consulted about his opinions on society and politics (especially in to the Gente magazine, representative of the high society of Argentina).


In 1970, he was even mentioned (again) as a possible Presidential successor.


Montoneros

In 1970 the rumours regarding Juan Domingo Perón's return to Argentina grew daily. Still living in exile in Spain, his orders resonated stronger and stronger. At the same time, leftist ideologies grew in Argentina as in much of South America. The example of Che Guevara influenced a generation of students in schools and universities that widely supported international socialism. Juan Domingo Perón (October 8, 1895 – July 1, 1974) was an Argentine military officer and the President of Argentina from 1946 to 1955 and from 1973 to 1974. ... Che Guevara Ernesto Rafael Guevara de la Serna (May 14, 1928 – October 9, 1967), commonly known as Che Guevara, was an Argentine-born Marxist revolutionary and Cuban guerrilla leader. ... Socialism refers to a broad array of doctrines or political movements that envisage a socio-economic system in which property and the distribution of wealth are subject to social control. ...


It was in this atmosphere that the Montoneros, led by Mario Alberto Firmenich were formed. Official logo of Montoneros The Movimiento Peronista Montonero was an Argentinian radical leftist nationalist-catholic guerrilla group, active during the 1970s. ... Mario Eduardo Firmenich (b. ...


It is possible that the Montoneros would not have had much social relevance had they not chosen such a resounding terrorist action, planning their first act of terror in the social-political life of Argentina. Their ambitious plan was the kidnapping and execution of former military president Pedro Eugenio Aramburu.


Death of Aramburu

On May 29, 1970 at noon, Aramburu was boldly kidnapped from the streets of Buenos Aires. The disappearance of Aramburu kept the whole Argentinian society on tenterhooks for a month, before discovering that Aramburu had been murdered 3 days after his kidnapping, and that his corpse was left in a farm of the town of Timote, Carlos Tejedor, in the Buenos Aires.

In the following months, official statements of the Montoneros flooded the media. Among other things they alleged historical reasons for their actions such as "the execution of 27 Peronist leaders after an unsuccessful Peronist rebellion in 1956", known as the José León Suárez massacre.
