Argentinian workers plan next phase after massive General Strike
People march to Congress during a national strike against the economic and labour reforms proposed by Argentine President Javier Milei in Buenos Aires, Argentina, January 24, 2024
WORKERS in Argentina began today to plan the next phase in their opposition to far-right President Javier Milei.
Wednesday’s massive general strike brought large swathes of the country to a standstill.
In a strike on a scale never before seen in modern Argentinian history, workers protested against sweeping plans by Mr Milei to cut government spending, privatise public industries and slash workers’ rights.
