BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Tens of thousands of demonstrators blocked major roads in Buenos Aires on Wednesday as they marched to protest high unemployment and the policies of centre-right Argentine leader Mauricio Macri, including cuts to public utility subsidies.
Average Argentines, already struggling with high inflation and a recession, have been hit by higher water, light and heating bills as Macri cuts government spending. The cuts fall under an agreement with the International Monetary Fund to erase Argentina's primary fiscal deficit by the end of this year.
