Argentina’s Senate began debating a sprawling bill on Wednesday that is key to libertarian President Javier Milei’s economic reform plans, while protesters set fires and clashed with police in the streets outside Congress.
Al Jazeera’s Teresa Bo joins live from the protests in Buenos Aires.

Why is israel bombing where he told the people to go
That’s NOT what’s happening here
ISREAL TOL THEAM THEAT HI WAS GOONIIG IIN 30 DAYIS TO GO OUT
Because they are conducting what many other countries have done in the past (Russia, China): ETHNIC CLEANSING
La più grande pulizia etnica l’hanno fatta gli inglesi sterminando gli indiani del Nord America . Fatto storico che viene sempre dimenticato .
Argentina is the Lebanon of the Americas 😢
say what?
El Salvador embraces Bitcoin and ADA Cardano partners with Argentina and Charles Hoskinson is billionaire helping Argentina prosper.
😂
In democracy the party ultra right only IS Destroy when Win election.
The 53 year old Libertarian Party in U.S. is always the excluded from televised debates
Libertarian LOL
The brave voters in Argentina elected the first Libertarian President while Trump & Biden wont debate any 3rd Party candidate for last 53 years including Robert F. Kennedy Jr today.
Argentina became a real tragedy with milei as president
Argentina was a mess before Milei and Milei is the one saving Argentina from Communism
@@Abbadon380vc deve estar de brincadeira. Que piada.
Milei destroyed argentina.
All those hard working Argentinians lost their retirement package cause of him.
@@TheBlazersfan22 so true
Is Argentina president instead of realizing Daddy has to turn a ship slowly, he wants to turn it abruptly! He may have good ideas I don’t know but he’s going about it the wrong way.
President Macri tried to do it slowly and the Peronist opposition worn him away and got him out of office before he could do anything meaningful. That’s why people elected Milei’s shock policy this time: if it has to be done, do it quickly so the pain goes away faster and the economy can start to grow sooner.
There are times when you not going to be popular and it happens right now in Argentina and NZ. Previous governments in both countries borrowed and spent money irresponsibly like there’s no tomorrow, benefiting a few ignorants that don’t know about how the economy works. It’s the time to have an adult conversation and tighten our belts. We will see a change, not right now but in a few years.
Sessões é uma mentira. Neoliberais odeiam pessoas de carne e osso. Está condenando a população a fome e a miséria. Povo padece.
Politicians though have to show ethos first by cutting their own salaries in half and other spending Then, I will believe them that are serious about economic measures. Would they? Nah! Liars!
Argentinian crisis didn’t happen because “other government borrowed and spent too much”. Stop saying what you don’t know!
@@elatafalando I do know. Leave the comments to experienced adults that know about the topic please.
The chosen people hard at work once again….
😂😂
They are worse than the previous ones
Can you cut out the Palestine propaganda?!?! Geez!!!!!
It’s Al Jazeera, they’re always pushing the communist angle
wrong video
South America the last 40 years….the rest of the western world the next 40 …🤪
Western governments are doing a great job cloaking it
It was just a matter of time before they rebelled against this corrupt american puppet clown act .
They as in public-sector workers, activists and welfare-recipients mad because Milei is shutting down their gravy train.
@black sands
You are so right. When you see in any country, puppet clowns, civil wars or dictators, US, UK and Germany are behind it for their own benefit and heck for the suffering of people. History repeats itself! 😢
Historically Privatisation is never a good thing for the masses, it only benefits the foreign investors .
The UK privatized their drinking water now they get free raw sewage in it.
thats whats he wants
Yea that’s what he wants. This way, Argentina can attract some much needed foreign investment and that juicy US dollars.
@@ianlin4010 Such confidence in the US dollar?
@@4362mont Here in Argentina the US Dollar is considered a kind of savings currency. Imagine a piggy bank, inside it the money that you will use only in cases of emergency, that is the feeling that Argentines have regarding the US Dollar.
Argentina vai COLAPSAR.
it has collapse
they collapsed years ago –
when they moved away from the $$$$ USD.
Because 150% inflation a year they had before was great right?
Vc tem a lider socialista em pleno 2024
The Loleconomy.
Libertarian paradise

Based poverty
Long story short
He wants to cut government spending drastically. The others don’t.
Inflation and Taxes are really but government spending too.
In order to fix the issue, government spending needs to be cut. Basic economics
Milei economics:
Cut 50 million for a pipeline project.
Spend 500 million on buying gas from Brazil to fix the problem you created by cutting funding.
Milei is the best Brazilian economist ever.
Yes, privatise everything so private companies take the profits and workers get slave wages – GREAT PLAN BOY!

The consequences left-wing economic mismanagement making such a necessity just to get the country’s finances in order.

Wow that was hard hitting, how will I 😴
That’s why i like Norway and Swedish system, they don’t just jump into complete capitalism, they mix it up with some socialist policies to ensure proper service delivery.
In the case of the Nordic nations, they don’t have the corruption on their blood, so they can have a public sector that is effective. In the case of Argentina, is much better the privatization than having an inefficient and corrupted public sector. I’m telling you this being Argentine, we have the corruption in our BLOOD, we are the result of the mixture between the worst from Europe.
for now …
It is not the same. Norway and Sweden have historically benefitted from their vast natural resources. Argentina, on the other hand, require drastic changes to undo centuries-long economic problems.
Your kidding, right? Half of Sweden is owned by a single family.
When this program was removed from American television, I got rid of it. It became an unnecessary distraction.
Only the welfare collectors are protesting.
crying out: “Oh, alas, I hated discipline,
and my heart despised reproof!”
Let the president pay he got a lot of aipa c money anyways.
He is doing a great job ! Give Argentina Liberty/ socialism has killed Argentina!
@@asfsfafafafafaf3382 I have spent time there and I know the people and the culture and I have studied the economic and cultural history! So yeah
Argentina needs deep ahd strong reforms to move forward.
Look at the police, sad to treat your own people like this! Are these ‘policemen’ Argentinians?
Milei is the wrong person for Argentina.
Yeah, the right person for Argentina was the one in favor of the 150% inflation they had before.
@@300ZCorradoVR6Z So, there is no alternative between wrong and wrong?
Argentina vai se tonar de novo um anão diplomático e económico da América do sul.
The Anarcho capitalists really want to crash the economy it seems.
Australian here. Privatisation of government assets doesn’t work. The US will come in and clean up and you’ll never see those assets again. Prices will rise and Americanisation will take over and your sovereignty will go too.
We are going through the greatest catastrophe regarding labor rights and leaving the territory unprotected. making retirees vulnerable. milei out.!!
Hahahah. You have got to be joking.
For 20 years of corrupt left wing rule. The pensions are the lowest in latin america. As well as the salaries. 100 to 150 dollars… Political left wing corruption. More than 37% of the left wing political leaders are and were charged of theft and corruption. The left wing left Milei with a 50% poverty. A 160% inflatiion. 2 of 4 kids have priblems of nutritionThey also destroyed the culture of work amd created a modern slavery system.
And the most important thing is that 57% of argentinians today support Milei and the bill
He was installed – by we know who – and imagine miraculously he is a Jew- 🥱🤔 Argentina has population of 48 million and Jew population of less then 200.000 – but he is the smartest one of all 48 million 🤔 – science fiction so far
He gave himself a big raise but big cuts for the rest helloooooo
Very nice, a good thing!
Welcome to Argentina where a Senate or Government bill that can ruin a country can be passed by a mere one vote.
Now Argentinians are paying a price for supporting Far Right Politicians and Senators like Javier Milei.
To prevent what happened in Argentina from happening again, the Senate needs to be changed to ensure that bills with a potential to destroy the country cannot be passed by one vote, but 2/3’s majority.
Besides, Milei has done enough damage to Argentina already, including inflation going out of control and currency devaluation.
Now we know why Canadians need to use their head, and don’t vote for Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives as the same thing is going to happen in Canada come 2025.
I hope Argentina doesn’t get caught in the oligarchy trap, like The United States.
They are already 😂
We have 3.2% percent inflation they have 212% so maybe they should take a few pointer.
In my country there is problem and the problem is the Jew
I wonder if Argentina is a dictatorship like usa, only two loser candidates.parties nobody likes, and Electoral college with super delegates who can jump sides for money 😂😂😂
Mille is not a reformer but a clown playing the US bet ,to destroy Argentina …😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude was always a clown, we all knew it
If i was living in Argentina, i’d probably emigrate. It’s rare policy changes are this extreme. I guess get out while/if you can.
US backed puppet is what you get.
Argentina had everything to gain with the BRICS, the US stuck this crook to the Argentinians who will soon suffer the crisis of the time. How did the Argentinians fall so low in voting for this unbearable clown? Young people probably don’t know about the Argentine crisis of the 90s, the foreign multinationals and banks that emptied the country and left it in the Middle Ages. The people have supported a colossal debt imposed by the IMF, not to mention the interest on the debt. The IMF is a bailiff, but the new generation doesn’t know that yet.
melie is a wierdo
The borg are there and ferengi.
Argentina is a basket-case with the country robbed by the elites (domestic and foreign). This is just the final nail on the coffin as the cost of basic services are only going to soar when it becomes for-profit. Honestly the only situation for Argentines is to default on all their USD debt (since it’s the ruling class that stole the money and should be made to pay back to the IMF and World Bank, along with other predatorial US lenders). Milei is very clearly a US-installed client.
not true, they are people dragged out MADE to potest by different social leaders, companies. why do you have to sign a presential slip…they were there to attack the senators, attacked with stones, brutalized police. They were brought in by buses.
Ancaps after taking control of a country
VAMOS ARGENTINAAAAA
