Argentina: Unionized public sector employees plan nationwide strike April 30 to demonstrate against President Milei's policies

Unionized public sector workers affiliated with the Association of State Workers (Asociacion de Trabajadores del Estado, ATE) have announced a nationwide strike on April 30 to denounce President Javier Milei's economic policies. A major demonstration is planned at the Plaza del Congreso in Buenos Aires at 11:00. During the strike, reduced government services are probable.

Large demonstrations, with hundreds of participants, are likely in cities throughout Argentina; turnout in the thousands is likely in Buenos Aires. Demonstrations are particularly likely near government buildings and public squares. A heightened security presence and localized transit and business disruptions are likely near demonstrations. Clashes cannot be ruled out.
