ARGENTINA: Strikes return to Buenos Aires
Argentine trade unions, civil-society groups, and even small business organisations have renewed their mobilisations in rejection of the ‘economic adjustment’ being implemented by the government led by President Mauricio Macri. The demonstrations are not overwhelming but they are noisy and suggest that, three years into Macri’s current four-year term, public support for the government’s economic policies may be waning due to worse-than-expected results. Producing positive results this year is the main political challenge facing Macri and the ruling centre-right Cambiemos coalition if he hopes to win re-election in 2019.
