“Something big is changing in Argentina”: Galperin’s comment on the riots in Congress and the purchase of reserves

The government of the City of Buenos Aires has stated that repairing the property damage caused around the National Congress will cost an estimated 90 million pesos. The destruction occurred following a disrupted session in the Chamber of Deputies, which took place concurrently with the fifth Federal University March.

In the wake of these events, prominent Argentine businessman Marcos Galperin publicly criticized the participants of the march and opposition figures. Concurrently, he praised the acceleration of foreign currency purchases by the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA), remarking that a significant shift is underway in the country.
