"Argentina's Top Court Halts Milei's Labour 'Mega-Decree', Casting Shadow on Reform Agenda"

Argentina's top court has suspended a 'mega-decree' of over 300 labour reforms introduced by President Javier Milei, following a legal challenge by the General Labour Confederation. The reforms, which included extending probation periods and reducing severance compensation, were deemed by the court to exceed the administration's authority as they bypassed Congress. Milei's government plans to appeal the decision. The president, who took office on December 10, has already implemented significant economic changes, including a 50% devaluation of the currency and cuts to subsidies, aiming to reshape the economy and reduce the state's size amidst high poverty and inflation rates.

"Argentina Declines BRICS Membership, Alters Global Trade Dynamics"

Argentina's new President Javier Milei has decided against joining the BRICS trading bloc, led by China and Russia, marking a significant shift from the country's previous administration's intentions. Milei, who has been implementing deregulatory economic policies since taking office, has expressed a preference for aligning with Western nations and plans to review decisions made by the former government.
