    The Wider Image – Retirees on the edge: Argentina’s protesting

    Luis Relinque, 75, count bills as he buys alfajores and other sweets to resell from his home to make ends meet, as his pension is not enough, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, February 14, 2025. Relinque receives the minimum monthly pension, which in October was just over 396,000 pesos, or about $266, that he says is not enough to make ends meet. "I don't go hungry, but I go without," he said, sitting alongside his small dog. Treats he used to give his granddaughter, such as an ice cream or a visit to the theatre, he can no longer afford. He used to gather with friends on Fridays to play cards and enjoy a meal, but that has also stopped. REUTERS/Tomas Cuesta SEARCH "CUESTA ARGENTINA PENSIONERS" FOR THIS STORY.
