It was never my plan to r…

Argentina approves Milei's bill that eases protections for glaciers despite environmental backlash
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentina’s Congress on Thursday approved a bill promoted by libertarian President Javier Milei that eases protections on glaciers to facilitate investments in mining for metals — a move that environmental groups vow to challenge in courts.
