In Argentina, a nationwide 12-hour general strike has been called by the country's largest labor unions to protest against President Javier Milei's budget-slashing austerity measures and economic reforms. The strike, which includes workers from transportation, construction, health care, and other sectors, represents a significant challenge to Milei's policies less than two months into his presidency. Demonstrations have taken place in Buenos Aires, with many workers downing tools to voice their opposition to what they view as attacks on unions, the working class, and civil liberties. Despite the unrest, reports suggest that President Milei's approval ratings remain high.
