ARGENTINA: Fernández faces mounting protests
A group of protesters greeted the arrival of a mission from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Argentina on 10 November for two weeks of discussions to renegotiate the country’s US$44bn debt to the multilateral institution. Protests are growing in number and frequency in Argentina and, while these were principally directed largely at the IMF, the government led by President Alberto Fernández has been on the receiving end of the others, notably after what looked like an attempt to shift three magistrates leading corruption investigations into his vice president, Cristina Fernández, to less threatening pastures.
