On the morning of this Tuesday, July 9th, Independence Day, the Civic-Military Parade was held, which was led by the mayor Francisco Azcué and Lieutenant Colonel Jorge Andrés Camarino, Chief of the 6th Blandengues Tank Cavalry Regiment, accompanied by the vice-mayor Magdalena Reta de Urquiza; officials from the Municipality of Concordia, from provincial agencies; council members and representatives of the Armed Forces and Security Forces.
When addressing those present, the Municipal President Francisco Azcué highlighted first of all that “it is an honor for me as mayor to participate in this act on a day very dear to our feelings. Where we commemorate the actions of our patriots, where we vindicate our history of struggles and conquests, and today we need to be infected by that patriotism, by that love for our country, by that vocation of service that is so important to manage to move forward”.
Azcué stated that “I am convinced that for this we have to dialogue, we have to embrace each other and fight together to have a better city. We have to fight for freedom, for equality and for that we have to do it fraternally, united. I am proud of our city, I am proud of our institutions and we are going to continue working to have an increasingly better city. May God bless Concordia, happy Homeland Day”.
Educational institutions of the city paraded; intermediate entities and associations; the Argentine Army; the Argentine Naval Prefecture; National Gendarmerie; the Penitentiary Service; the Argentine Federal Police; Police of the Province of Entre Ríos; Volunteer Firefighters and departments of the Municipality.
