Protesters clashed with police outside Argentina’s National Congress on Wednesday as senators gathered to debate a sprawling economic bill that is key to President Javier Milei’s plans for economic reform.

Police in riot gear fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse protesters who threw stones and Molotov cocktails.

Congress’ upper house, which is divided almost down the middle over the bill, was set for a marathon debate after the bill passed the lower house of deputies in April on second asking and with several changes.

Argentina has annual inflation near 300 per cent, depleted currency reserves and a high debt load. It is also in the midst of a recession and poverty in the country is rising.
