Thousands of people take to the streets against Milei's reforms: "Today the minimum wage in Argentina is the lowest in Latin America"

Thousands of people took to the streets in Buenos Aires to protest against reforms implemented by Argentina's ultra-right government led by Javier Milei. The demonstration, organized by three major trade unions and social organizations, focused on opposing the regressive labor reforms and demanding dignified wages and pensions. Protesters expressed concern over the economic situation, particularly the impact on retirees and the declining minimum wage, which is now the lowest in Latin America when measured in dollars. The movement has formed an alliance between different labor unions and popular economy workers' organizations, signaling a broader strategy of direct action. Union leaders criticized the government for not engaging in meaningful dialogue and warned that this protest marks the beginning of more extensive mobilizations, including a traditional August rally.
