Tens of Thousands of Argentines Protest University Budget Cuts

Tens of thousands of Argentines protested Tuesday against President Javier Milei's cuts to public university budgets, marching in Buenos Aires and other cities. The cuts target a tuition-free system that has produced five Nobel laureates and are part of Milei's broader austerity push. Critics say the measures are devastating higher education amid economic downturn and corruption scandals.
