Mass protests in Argentina against Milei’s austerity – reports Thousands filled the streets around Congress in Buenos Aires to denounce President Javier Milei’s veto on funding for education and healthcare, Reuters reported. Protesters warned that Milei’s drastic budget cuts are crippling public universities and even the country’s largest children’s hospital. University staff, unions, doctors in white coats, and students rallied with banners and flags demanding an end to his policies. According to Reuters, Milei has repeatedly blocked social measures — rejecting pension increases and scrapping support for children and people with disabilities — all in the name of “deficit reduction.” Milei’s hardline austerity is pushing ordinary Argentines into deeper hardship, fueling a wave of anger that has already led to clashes, including when protesters hurled stones at him during a previous public event.
