| France 24 - International breaki | ARGENTINA: THOUSANDS PROTEST PRIVATE PROPERTY LEGISLATION | 1 hr ago |
Thousands of protesters gathered outside Argentina’s Senate on Thursday to oppose a controversial private property bill. The demonstration ended in scuffles, tear gas and rubber‑bullet deployment.
According to France 24 – International breaki, the protestors demanded that the government reconsider the bill’s provisions on land ownership, particularly the limits on foreign ownership. Javier Milei’s administration had already removed the most contentious clause, but the crowds’ anger remained unabated. Police response included tear gas and rubber bullets, with several scuffles reported along the protest route.
The private property bill has been criticized for potentially restricting foreign investment in Argentine real estate. Milei’s removal of the foreign‑land‑ownership limits was seen as a concession, yet the sustained protests underscore ongoing public frustration over perceived erosion of property rights.
