Anxiety and resignation in Argentina after Milei's economic shock measures

Argentines are facing uncertainty and concerns after President Javier Milei’s government announced economic shock measures aimed at tackling the country severe crisis. The measures include a sharp devaluation of the peso by 50%, cuts to subsidies and the closure of some government ministries. Milei has warned people that these steps will cause some pain, but he insists they are needed to curb triple-digit inflation and have sustainable economic growth in the future. But anxiety is evident among people, even with those who support the new president, a self-declared “anarcho-capitalist.”
