Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Lehendakari visited and paid tribute to the Tree of Gernika that has been growing since 1919 at the Casa Rosada, headquarters of the Argentine Presidency, in a simple but symbolic act at this newly remodeled plaza. Urkullu’s agenda includes meeting with officials, Argentine representatives, and members of the Basque community as well as mixed events.  The tribute at the Tree of Gernika was followed by a reception hosted by the Lehendakari to the Basque-Argentine Community and it representative organizations.
