In December 1986, during the presidency of Julio María Sanguinetti, Law 15,848 on the Expiration of State Punitive Claims was enacted, which establishes impunity for the crimes of violation of human rights and state terrorism during the dictatorship (1973 -1985).

Subsequent governments maintained the Uruguayan tradition of ending civil wars together, without winners or losers. However, President Jorge Batlle installed the Peace Commission in 2000.
