Argentina. In Buenos Aires, CGT union leaders are preparing for new protest actions. A meeting is scheduled for Wednesday to discuss the labor reform. Unions are threatening new strikes. The United Front of Unions (FreSU), which brings together more radical unions, is calling for a demonstration on Friday. Argentine workers are protesting against the reform.
Demands. Under pressure from workers and their own bases, union leaders do not rule out defining new measures of force after the general strike on Thursday, February 19. This was the fourth strike in the era of President Javier Milei.
As reported by the Argentine News Agency, CGT understands that if the reform is approved as expected, they will try to make senators who vote in favor pay a 'political price.' This is especially true for Peronist senators. They are also preparing other alternatives, such as 'taking legal action' against the provisions of the reform that CGT considers unconstitutional, such as the prohibition of the right to strike.
