BUENOS AIRES, Dec 28 (AFP): Thousands of Argentines took to the streets of Buenos Aires on Wednesday, clashing with police as they protested a decree of sweeping economic reform and deregulation published by President Javier Milei.
Marching at the behest of labor unions, the protesters demanded the courts intervene to invalidate the mega-decree they say would carve away at worker and consumer protections.
Congress is sitting in an extraordinary session this week, at the request of ultra-libertarian Milei-in office since December 10 -- to consider the plan.
He sent a package of bills to give effect to his decree to parliament on Wednesday.
