The \u201cmarch for the retired\u201d has been taking place every Wednesday for months in Buenos Aires against cuts in pensions and medicine provision in a context of fierce economic adjustment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The action of the security forces with the sole objective of dispersing the protest was abusive and disproportionate, contrary to regional and international standards that protect the right to protest. More than twenty people were hospitalized and 114 people were detained, including two children. After several hours, the courts of the City of Buenos Aires released them for lack of information on the reasons for the arrests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An 87-year-old retired woman was pushed and hit in the head by a member of the Federal Police. Photographer Pablo Grillo was hit in the head by a tear gas canister while taking pictures of the march and is hospitalized in critical condition. A boy and a girl were affected by the gas as they were leaving a school in the area. The police fired rubber bullets into people&#8217;s faces, injuring several of them, and used pepper spray at close range. Older adults, children, young people, men and women were indiscriminately dispersed from the surroundings of the National Congress through the use of tear gas, rubber bullets, hydrant trucks and tonfa batons. This is the result of the violent repression of those who demonstrated last Wednesday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The use of gas guns such as the one that injured Pablo Grillo was forbidden in the protests until the government of Javier Milei repealed the resolution that provided for it. According to the regulation issued by the current government in December 2023, any demonstration with street or road blockades is a crime. In addition, the Argentine government enabled the security forces to disperse demonstrations, to carry firearms in protest contexts and to collect information in order to criminalize those who participate in the demonstrations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The repression of social protest and the criminalization of protesters have been consolidated as a tool of the Argentine government to intimidate and silence dissident voices, reducing the democratic space in the country. Throughout 2024 more than 93 people were arbitrarily detained for participating in protests and more than 600 were injured of varying degrees of severity. The March 12 episode evidences an alarming increase in the number of people detained and injured in a single protest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also of concern is the narrative constructed by the State over the last year to justify violence against protesters. Senior government officials described the popular demonstrations as \u201can attempt to destabilize the government\u201d, \u201ca coup d&#8217;\u00e9tat\u201d and spoke of \u201cterrorist leaders\u201d. In official statements, the Minister of Security of Argentina defended the police action and stated that they will seek the criminalization of the demonstrators for \u201csedition\u201d and of the judge who released the detained persons. She also promised to expel the migrants who participated in the protest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The escalation of violence by the Argentine State and in particular the rhetoric of \u201cdestabilization\u201d jeopardize the rights of a democratic society, such as social protest and freedom of expression.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We express our solidarity with the demands of the Argentine people for better living conditions and urge the authorities to comply with their international obligations and to fully investigate police actions in order to sanction misconduct. We closely follow the shrinking of civic space in Argentina and call on the government to establish a safe and enabling environment for the expression of dissenting voices. We express concern about the advance of authoritarianism in Argentina and its consequences for the entire region, and urge Latin American states to speak out in defense of democracy and the human rights of Latin American peoples.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amnesty International<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organizacion Mundial contra la Tortura (OMCT)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International Service for Human Rights (ISHR)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oficina en Washington para Asuntos Latinoamericanos (WOLA)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CIVICUS Global Alliance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Centro por la Justicia y el Derecho Internacional (CEJIL)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Robert F.
