The conflict between the Argentine government and university sectors has escalated as negotiations continue amid ongoing disputes over funding and resource allocation. On Thursday at the Palacio Pizzurno, the government convened teaching and non-teaching unions for a new round of talks following a history of failed agreements and the possibility of further strikes.
Simultaneously, the vice rector of the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) publicly criticized the proposed budget, asserting that government priorities fail to support universities or comply with existing laws. This friction is fueled by President Javier Milei's decision to allocate fewer resources than requested by higher education institutions, prolonging the ongoing budgetary standoff.
