Argentina: Amnistía Internacional y la Comisión Internacional de Juristas han repetidamente expresado su preocupación sobre la incompatibilidad de algunas leyes.
Estas son las Leyes Nº 23.492, de Punto Final de 12 de diciembre de 1986, y Nº 23.521, de Obediencia Debida de 4 de junio de 1987, de la República Argentina con el derecho internacional y, en particular, con la obligación de Argentina de enjuiciar y sancionar a los autores de graves violaciones a los derechos humanos.
Estas leyes han servido hasta ahora para obstruir las investigaciones de miles de casos de víctimas de desapariciones forzadas, tortura y ejecuciones extrajudiciales cometidas durante los gobiernos militares de 1976 a 1983.
