The relatives of the disappeared Argentines ratified support for President Nicolas Maduro and the Venezuelan people.

The Mothers of Plaza de Mayo have dedicated their 2,127th march - which was staged in Buenos Aires, Argentina - to the Venezuelan people and the country's President Nicolas Maduro.

Mirroring every Thursday since 1997, the Mothers gathered at the square facing Argentina's presidential palace to perform their "March of Resistance;" except, this Thursday, the group also incorporated protesting recent attacks that Venezuela has been receiving from the United States and its regional allies.

The marchers, who were accessorized with their traditional blue flags and white scarves, flew Venezuelan flags to show support to President Maduro.

"I dedicate our 2,127th march to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and to its people," Hebe de Bonafini, the association's president, said and added that the United States "generates conflicts because [the country] wants a war in order to put a military base at the border with Venezuela."
