Argentina Opposes UN Measure on Online Gender Violence
Originally Published 1 year ago — by CNN
Argentina was the only country to vote against a UN resolution aimed at combating online violence against women and girls, citing concerns over ambiguous terms like "hate speech" and "misinformation" that could restrict freedom of expression. President Javier Milei, a critic of the UN, argues that the resolution aligns with an ideological agenda. This vote follows Argentina's recent opposition to another UN resolution on indigenous rights. Milei's administration has implemented controversial social and economic policies, including changes affecting abortion access and LGBTQ rights.
