Argentina Pensioners Clash with Police Over Economic Policies

Protesters clashed with police outside Argentina’s Congress building on Wednesday during a demonstration against President Javier Milei’s economic policies. The peaceful protest turned violent as protesters threw stones at authorities, who responded with water cannons, tear gas, and pellets.

Pensioners in Buenos Aires have been holding weekly protests since the introduction of new pension reforms by President Milei. The retirees argue that the reforms do not keep pace with inflation, leading to financial hardship. In response, the government has imposed stricter restrictions on access to football stadiums for individuals involved in the unrest.
