Argentine labor unions renew leadership amid warnings of social conflict

labor unions CGT union elections Argentina labor conflict

Labor unions in Argentina are undergoing leadership renewals and preparing for increased social conflict. In San Juan, Eduardo Cabello was re-elected to lead the CGT regional delegation for a four-year term. His leadership was supported by national CGT figure Héctor Daer, who emphasized the need for unity despite an opposition list withdrawing from the assembly after certain organizations were deemed ineligible to participate.

In Chaco, Isaías Alegre has been ratified to lead the CGT Chaco until 2030. Alegre warned of a year marked by intense street protests and conflict with the provincial government, citing a lack of dialogue regarding worker housing and the economic impact on employment.

Additionally, the MST organization has announced a mobilization toward the Buenos Aires provincial government to demand urgent measures regarding food insecurity and social assistance, criticizing both national and provincial responses to the current economic crisis.
