No mention of a Jauretche political movement affiliated to the Justicialista Party (also known as the Peronist Party) could be found among the sources consulted by the Research Directorate.

However, two Clarín reports state that Arturo Jauretche had been one of the founders of the Argentinean Youth Force for Radical Orientation (Fuerza de Orientación Radical de la Juventud Argentina, FORJA) in the 1930s, a group whose direction had shifted from embracing a national movement based on the doctrines of the first democratically-elected president of Argentina, Hipólito Yrigoyen (movement was popularly known as yrigoyenismo) to one based on peronismo (6 June 1999; 14 Sept. 1999). The 6 June 1999 Clarín report states that Jauretche was considered as one of former dictator Juan Perón's mentors and great influences, even though he cordially disliked Jauretche (Perón lo detestaba cordialmente).

This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
