On Wednesday morning, at the square that bears his name, the ceremony for the 238th anniversary of the birth of General Francisco “Pancho” Ramírez was held.
The General Secretary of the Mayor's Office, Lorena Aguilar, led the ceremony on behalf of Mayor Francisco Azcué and, in her remarks, highlighted the significance of Ramírez's figure for the people of Entre Ríos, as he was the one who “upheld the federal republican values that are very important to all of us today.”
“We are talking about the time when Entre Ríos was a Republic, being one of the few provinces that became independent at a historical moment. Ramírez represents federalism, the sense of belonging, and the collective construction of values,” Aguilar remarked.
Present were the President of the Argentine delegation of the Mixed Technical Commission (CTM) of Salto Grande, Ambassador Alejandro Daneri; the Undersecretary of Sports, Ivana Pérez; the Comptroller of the Decentralized Sanitary Works Entity (EDOS), Javier Del Cerro; Councilwoman Eliana Lagraña; the Director of the Felipe Heras Hospital, Dr. Julio Greco; Father José Zabaleta; Horacio Lalanda, President of the Ramiriano Institute; representatives of the Armed and Security Forces, as well as various institutions and organizations of the city.
