Argentina’s President Javier Milei announced over 300 deregulatory measures to revive the country’s ailing economy, targeting rules on rent and labor practices. The move aims to dismantle past regulations hindering economic growth, with Milei advocating “shock” treatment despite acknowledging temporary worsening conditions. Changes include scrapping rent laws, allowing state enterprise privatization, and modernizing labor laws. However, protests erupted, expressing concerns over potential negative impacts on jobs and stability. Milei, elected last month, advocates for spending cuts and has devalued the peso, facing challenges in a nation grappling with high inflation and poverty.
