Argentina

In a country that has long prided itself on its openness to immigrants, the declaration drew criticism from the Argentine president's opponents and prompted comparisons to U.S. President Donald Trump.

Argentina says that its poverty rate has dropped to 38.1% in libertarian President Javier Milei’s first year in office.

Milei's series of austerity measures has been brutal. Unemployment has climbed, economic activity has declined and poverty has surged. But now signs have emerged that Argentina’s bizarre and long mismanaged economy is starting to look a little more normal.

Donald Trump has met at his Mar-a-Lago club with Argentine President Javier Milei, the first foreign leader to meet with the president-elect since his victory in last week’s election.

A tribunal in Argentina has upheld a six-year sentence term and lifetime ban from holding public office sentence against former President Cristina Fernández, a dominant political leader in recent years in the South American country.

Argentina has been known as one of Latin America’s most socially progressive countries. But President Javier Milei’s austerity measures have cut programs aimed at helping women.

Three people have been charged in connection with the death of Liam Payne, a former member of musical group One Direction who died after falling from his Buenos Aires hotel room balcony last month.

COMMENTARY Democrats might not have been so dismissive of populist Donald Trump's inflation exploitation strategy if they had paid attention — as he did — to how well it worked for fellow populist Javier Milei in Argentina.

After entering office last year, far-right President Milei swiftly imposed his fiscal shock therapy, slashing federal budget transfers to provinces.

A federal court in Argentina has ordered the “immediate” arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello for alleged crimes against humanity committed against dissidents.

A half century later, "Como la Cigarra" is still Latin America's iconic hymn of anti-dictatorship defiance — even though it was written by a composer of children's songs.

Venezuelans have brought their crimes-against-humanity case to a federal court 3,000 miles from home — in Argentina. They're frustrated by the limits of the laboriously slow International Criminal Court and determined that the security officers who they say killed their loved ones not enjoy absolute impunity.
