Argentina's President Milei presents 2025 budget, vowing austerity and setting up a showdown
Monday, 16 September 2024 () Libertarian President Javier Milei of Argentina has presented the 2025 budget to Congress, outlining policy priorities that reflected his key pledge to kill the country’s chronic fiscal deficit and signaled a new phase of confrontation with lawmakers.
