Argentina President's Shock Therapy Approach Sparks Protests and Controversy

Some social and labor groups have protested Argentina President Javier Milei's shock therapy approach, as the newly-elected leader implements drastic economic reforms to address the country's severe inflation, poverty, and debt issues. On Wednesday, several groups are planning protests in Buenos Aires to demonstrate against the economic measures and new security rules. However, President Milei and his administration have warned they will crack down on any protests that block streets. A new security protocol allows forces to clear demonstrators without a court order and identify protesters through videos to bill them.
