This Friday (March 28th) Argentinian farmers announced they would suspended a 16-day strike against higher taxes on grains exports. The farmers noted that they were responding to a speech given on Thursday by Cristina Kirchner, the country's president.
"The objective is to facilitate a meeting with the national government, after which we will evaluate the results, which will be submitted to the rank and file nationwide," the four biggest farming groups said in a statement on Friday.
Nevertheless, there were still many demonstrations nationwide and here in Buenos Aires. I had the opportunity to observe two such marches today and thought I would share some of the photographs with you all.

The shot withthe girl and the flares is incredable. That shot shows so much passion, reminds me of something you would see in the New Yorker, or National Geographic!
Samuel,
Maybe you should post the audio to the interview with D'Elia (call in to Peña's radio show. Have you heard it?
It is amazing that this personality is still around. By the way, this is not the first time this guy has spewed such hatred in the name of the government.
Get me a link to it and I will gladly post it Frank.
