Tens of thousands march in Argentina against Macri's austerity

Tens of thousands march in Argentina against Macri's austerityMacri slashed subsidies for public utilities and other services to reduce the country’s chronic fiscal deficit, pushing electricity and gas rates up more 2,000 percent since the start of his term, according to estimates by local media. All the measures taken by the government go against workers,” Pablo Moyano, a leader of a union of truck drivers, said during the protest. Weekly demonstrations are planned through early February, increasing pressure on Macri to solve the country’s economic crisis ahead of a presidential election late this year.
