Argentina
Risk of demonstrations & roadblocks inceased over the next few days?
19 Aug 2008
There is an increased risk of demonstrations within the following days as leaders of Argentina's largest farmer groups -- including Argentina's Agrarian Federation and Rural Confederation -- announced that members of their organizations will resume demonstrations. The protests are against the government's reluctance to change a number of policies in the agricultural sector. Protesters stated that they do not intend to set up roadblocks as part of their protest.
