President Javier Milei of Argentina has removed the privilege retirements for the president and vice president, eliminating 124 minimum retirements for Cristina Kirchner. The state-run oil company YPF fell as much as 14% in New York after its privatization was removed from Milei's sweeping reforms. Milei's government is threatening to dock day’s pay from state workers participating in a general strike called for January 24th. He also announced plans to cut 27k ineligible persons from welfare, saving up to 2 billion pesos annually. Milei is proposing new rules to increase the number of Argentines paying income tax and is implementing shock therapy to narrow the deficit. Argentina’s unions are staging a general strike to test popular support for Milei’s austerity blitz less than two months into his presidency.
