LIVE: Students, teachers hold 48-hour strike in Argentina

Argentine students and teachers take their classes to the streets in Buenos Aires during a 48-hour strike against sharp spending cuts at public universities by President Javier Milei's libertarian government. Argentina's lower house of Congress failed to muster the votes needed to reverse Milei's veto of a law that would have boosted university funding earlier in October. Milei vetoed a bill last month that would have updated public university funding in line with Argentina's triple-digit inflation rate, one of the world's highest. Thousands of people have since demonstrated against his cuts to education and healthcare. #argentina #universityfunding #javiermilei #BuenosAires #education #news #live #reuters Keep up with the latest news from around the world: https://www.reuters.com/
