00:00And now we go to Argentina, where hundreds of unemployed workers line up before dawn in Moreno, Buenos Aires,
00:07desperately competing for just 30 retail job openings amid a deepening labor crisis.
00:12Job seekers, ranging from youth seeking their first job to older adults stripped of employment,
00:19condemned President Javier Mille's neoliberal cuts and severe drop in purchasing power.
00:23Official statistics from INDEC revealed national unemployment rose nearly 8% in mid-2026,
00:30with tens of thousands of formal jobs destroyed across manufacturing and trade sectors.
00:36As poverty and job losses escalate under shock therapy austerity,
00:42working-class families across Argentina continue demanding structural solutions for dignified work and living wages.
00:54I have been here since 5 in the morning.
00:57I have been looking for work for two months now, and there is no response to anything.
01:01And yet, our president, I do not know what he is doing, having a sado with Trump over in the
01:07U.S.,
01:08while here we workers are looking for work.
01:10We have been suffering with this for about two months, just for 30 employees here.
01:14Imagine that thousands of people came here for one post.
01:20I'm struck by the youth queuing for a new start, alongside older folks without jobs, seeking a dignified life.
01:30So what I hope for is that, that there are jobs so everyone can live well.
01:35You're welcome.
