Argentina: Thousands Take to Streets to Protest WTO Meeting

HeadlineDec 13, 2017

Thousands of protesters took to the streets Tuesday in Buenos Aires to protest the meeting of the World Trade Organization, or the WTO. This is a member of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, Nora Cortiñas.

Nora Cortiñas: “We don’t want the World Trade Organization. We don’t want to lose our sovereignty. We want to be a free people, with our own determination. We don’t want policies of hunger or unemployment or the handing over of sovereignty to be imposed on us.”
