President of Argentina

Having been appointed Interior Minister in 1981 by Leopoldo Galtieri, he briefly served as President of Argentina from 18 June 1982 to 1 July 1982, during a period of military rule, after Galtieri was ousted from office due to the country's defeat in the Falklands War.

Succession

Saint-Jean's brief period as President in June and July 1982 ended when he was succeeded by General Reynaldo Bignone.

gollark: Ah, yes, here it is. While I don't think blocking someone who finds a problem of some sort with your site/information disclosure is the right solution, that should probably be respected, and you should *also* stop obtaining data/looking for vulnerabilities if the owner asks.
