Source-derived summary

Ángel Rozas (born 22 March 1950) is a retired Argentine politician. A member of the Radical Civic Union (UCR), Rozas was Governor of Chaco Province from 1995 to 2003, and served as a National Senator for Chaco from 2013 to 2019.

Rozas was born in General Pinedo, Chaco, to a smallholding family. He earned a law degree at the Universidad Nacional del Litoral. Rozas first held elected office in 1983 as a Chaco Provincial Deputy, serving for three terms. He was a candidate to be vice-governor in 1987.

Rozas served as governor of Chaco Province from December 1995 to December 2003, re-elected in 1999. In 1999 he was also elected vice-president of the national committee of the UCR and in 2001 was elected president, serving until 2005 when he was replaced by Roberto Iglesias.

He was elected to the Argentine Chamber of Deputies for Chaco in 2005. As a leading figure in his party, he was seen as a possible candidate for the 2007 presidential elections, although the UCR was (and continues to be) electorally weak and split between supporters of President Néstor Kirchner and Roberto Lavagna.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Ángel Rozas” as argentine politician. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1950, 1995, 2003, 2013—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1950-03-22. The account is most persuasive where Ángel, Rozas and Argentine can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as argentine politician. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q591796. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1950, 1995, 2003 and 2013.

Critical limits

Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
