The military junta led by Leopoldo Galtieri is also pardoned over the conviction for its conduct of the Malvinas War and all the faces of the three uprisings against Raúl Alfonsín. In a fourth decree, the members of the armed organizations are pardoned, thus placing them on an equal footing with the military, in the consecration of the theory of the two demons.
