Protests have erupted across Argentina's public universities in response to President Javier Milei's veto of a budget increase that would address soaring inflation impacting educators' salaries. With inflation exceeding 200% and teachers demanding higher pay, the demonstrations have united various sectors of society discontent with ongoing austerity measures.
