Argentina- What now?

David | 21.12.2001 08:16

What is the latest news from Argentina, and what is likely to happen now? I know very little about the events leading up to the riots, or the current political situation.

The latest news I heard was that the Argentinian president had abdicated and left the country after protesters surrounded his home.

Was he a bad leader, or was he just broken by the IMF?

What is happening now?

Who will take over? Has he appointed a sucessor, who is capable of controlling the situation? Is there a strong enough left (either communist, socialist or anarchist) to seize power, or is it more likely to be taken by a more right-wing government?

Is the country likely to descend into a Afghanistan-style civil war?

If you can answer these questions, I would be grateful if you could add the answers to this article, or send them to my e-mail adress.

Solidarity.
