Far-right Argentine president in controversial second visit to Madrid <\/a><\/li><li class=\"c-widget-related__item\"><a class=\"c-widget-related__article\" href=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////www.euronews.com//2024//06//13//mileis-radical-agenda-advances-in-argentinas-senate-as-protesters-clash-with-police/">Milei's radical agenda advances in Argentina's Senate as protesters clash with police<\/a><\/li>\n <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It is unclear when the proposed penal code reform will be presented to Congress and whether Milei's minority government would have enough support to pass the measure.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina has long been considered one of the most progressive countries in Latin America when it comes to gender equality and diversity measures, but Milei's administration has taken aim at women's rights since taking office in December 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Women, Genders and Diversity and the Undersecretariat for Protection Against Gender Violence were scrapped straight away, while schemes to help female victims of violence have been scaled back. Last November, Argentina was the only nation to vote against a UN resolution promoting the end of all forms of online violence against women and girls.<\/p>\n<p>Milei\u2019s administration is also seeking to repeal measures such as gender parity in electoral lists, labour quotas for sexual minorities, and non-binary identity documents.<\/p>\n<p>His stance against what he calls \"gender ideology\" gained momentum this month following the inauguration of US President Donald Trump \u2014 an ally and admirer of Milei.<\/p>\n<p>Hours after taking the oath of office last week, Trump signed an executive order ending diversity, equity and inclusion programmes within the US federal government, which he described as \"dangerous, demeaning and immoral\".<\/p>\n","hashtag":null,"createdAt":1738226465,"updatedAt":1738238182,"publishedAt":1738234064,"firstPublishedAt":1738234064,"lastPublishedAt":1738238154,"expiresAt":0,"images":[{"sourceUrl":null,"sourceCredit":null,"callToActionUrl":null,"captionCredit":"AP

of Argentina's capital, resulting in \u201cextremely serious injuries,\u201d Buenos Aires police said in a statement, adding that medics confirmed his death on the spot.\n\nPablo Policicchio, the communications director for the Buenos Aires Security Ministry, said that Payne \u201chad jumped from the balcony of his room.\u201d \n\nPolice rushed to the hotel on Wednesday evening in response to an emergency call, he added, warning of an \u201caggressive man who could be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.\u201d\n\nThe hotel manager can be heard on a 911 call saying they had \"a guest who is overwhelmed with drugs and alcohol.

with high-risk HPV infections appear to be more likely to experience sperm death, which could affect their fertility, according to a small study in Argentina.\n\nHuman papillomavirus (HPV) is among the world\u2019s most common sexually transmitted infections.\n\nMost people have no symptoms, but some get genital warts and others go on to develop more serious conditions, such as cervical cancer, which affects about 33,000 women in the European Union every year.\n\nThe new study, published in the journal Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, adds to a growing body of research about how HPV affects men \u2013 and specifically, their fertility.\n\nResearchers from the National University of C\u00f3rdoba in Argentina took semen samples from 205 men who went to a urology and

They found HPV in 19 per cent of the samples, with high-risk infections more common.\n\nThey compared semen quality among men with high-risk, low-risk, and no infections, parsed out by cancer risk level. Those with high-risk HPV were more likely to have sperm death, lower white blood cell counts, and higher levels of reactive oxygen species, which are a leading cause of infertility in men.\n\n\u201cEven if we don't have any symptoms, we could still be infected with HPV, and that infection with this virus, especially high-risk HPV, might interfere with male fertility,\u201d Virginia Rivero, the study\u2019s senior author and a professor of immunology at the National University of C\u00f3rdoba, told Euronews Health.\n\nNotably, there was no connection between HPV infection and other routine markers of semen quality, such as sperm count and motility. And overall, levels of sperm death were still relatively low, meaning men should temper their concerns.\n\nThe researchers also noted that men don\u2019t \u201ccontinuously shed\u201d HPV through their semen, meaning some people with negative samples may actually have been infected, the researchers said.\n\nWhile the study\u2019s sample size is small, the findings offer clues on the cause of fertility issues, which affect an estimated 10 to 15 per cent of couples worldwide.\n\nFor example, more oxidative stress in sperm can damage DNA, potentially leading to greater levels of sperm death among men with high-risk HPV infections.\n\nThat would help explain why fertility treatments using intrauterine insemination (IUI), where the sperm is placed directly into the uterus, can be less successful, the researchers said.\n\nIn some cases, however, developing eggs can repair damage to sperm DNA after they have been fertilised, underscoring that the latest results are promising but far from conclusive.\n\n\u201cThe next step is to increase the number of patients to confirm our findings,\u201d Rivero said.\n\nThe study authors also noted that previous research on the link between HPV and sperm quality have had mixed results.\n\nHPV prevention in Europe\n\nMany infected men may not know they have HPV. While women are screened for HPV during pap smears, there is no reliable HPV test for men.\n\nMen are also less likely to get the HPV vaccine. There are major disparities among countries, but overall 39 per cent of European women have received at least one dose, compared with 25 per cent of men.\n\nThat could be because the shot was first approved in 2006, but public health agencies have only started recommending it for boys in recent years. Today most European countries recommend the HPV vaccine for both boys and girls, though in Bulgaria and Romania, it is still only advised for girls.\n\nEuropean officials are prioritising HPV immunisation as part of their new \u201cbeating cancer\u201d plan, given its link to cervical and other cancers. They say they want 90 per cent immunisation among girls and to \u201csignificantly increase\u201d vaccinations among boys by 2030.\n\nIt\u2019s not yet clear whether getting an HPV shot would also affect male fertility, but the study authors noted that HPV-16, the most common high-risk strain in their sample, is preventable through vaccination.\n\n\u201cUrologists and andrologists typically do not request testing to determine if a man is HPV-positive, nor to identify the genotype, even when a couple is trying to conceive,\u201d Rivero said.\n\n\u201cI believe this test should be added to the many others that are requested to assess semen quality\u201d.\n\nThis article has been updated to include quotes from the study's senior author.\n\n","htmlText":"<p>Men with high-risk HPV infections appear to be more likely to experience sperm death, which could affect their fertility, according to a small study in Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>Human papillomavirus (HPV) is among the world\u2019s most common sexually transmitted infections.<\/p>\n<p>Most people have <a href=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////www.europeancancer.org//content//the-impact-of-hpv.html/">no symptoms<\/strong><\/a>, but some get genital warts and others go on to develop more serious conditions, such as cervical cancer, which affects <a href=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////www.ecdc.europa.eu//en//human-papillomavirus//factsheet/">about 33,000 women<\/strong><\/a> in the European Union every year.<\/p>\n<p>The new study, published in the journal <a href=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////www.frontiersin.org//journals//cellular-and-infection-microbiology//articles//10.3389//fcimb.2024.1420307//full/">Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology<\/strong><\/a>, adds to a <a href=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov//pmc//articles//PMC10744208///">growing body of research<\/strong><\/a> about how HPV affects men \u2013 and specifically, their fertility.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers from the National University of C\u00f3rdoba in Argentina took semen samples from 205 men who went to a urology and andrology clinic from 2018 to 2021 and had not been vaccinated against HPV.

After that, the bill heads back to the lower house, where lawmakers must okay any modifications before Milei can officially claim his first legislative victory.\n\nLawmakers from the right and the left have clashed over numerous parts of the 238-article state reform bill, including the declaration of a one-year state of emergency and the delegation of broad powers to the president until the end of Milei's term in 2027.\n\nOther controversial measures include an incentive scheme that would give investors lucrative tax breaks for 30 years.\n\nMilei is a political outsider with just two years' experience as a lawmaker, and his three-year-old party, Liberty Advances, holds just 15% of seats in the lower house and 10% in the Senate.\n\nMilei has been unable to pass a single piece of legislation in his six months of presidency, raising questions about whether he can execute his ambitious project to trim the deficit and spur growth. Instead, he's used executive powers to slash subsidies, fire thousands of public employees, devalue the Argentine currency and deregulate parts of the economy.\n\nThe spending cuts and currency devaluation that Milei has delivered have \u2014 at least in the short term \u2014 deepened a recession, increased poverty to 55% and sent annual inflation surging toward 300%.\n\n\u201cIf this law passes, we are going to lose so many of our labour and pension rights,\u201d said 54-year-old teacher Miriam Rajovitcher, protesting ahead of the vote alongside colleagues who say they\u2019ve had to reconfigure their lives since Milei slashed school budgets and devalued the currency. \u201cI am so much worse off.\u201d\n\nAnalysts say the promised benefits of Milei's reforms \u2014 a stable currency, tamer inflation, fresh foreign investment \u2014 won't materialise without a political consensus to convince foreign investors that his changes are here to stay. Milei's administration has said it wants to strike a new deal with the International Monetary Fund, to which Argentina already owes more than \u20ac40 billion.\n\n\u201cEveryone is in a wait-and-see mode,\u201d said Marcelo J. Garc\u00eda, Americas director at geopolitical risk firm Horizon Engage. \u201cInvestors say, \u2019Yes, we love what you\u2019re saying, but we need to see that this is sustainable.\u201d\n\nMilei's allies said they had made tough concessions. Liberty Advances has agreed not to sell off the country's post office, the flagship airline Aerol\u00edneas Argentinas, or the public radio service, leaving just a handful of state-owned firms, including Argentina's nuclear power company, on the block for possible privatisation.\n\nMilei's original pitch late last year to privatise more than 40 state-owned Argentine companies met with uproar, particularly among the country's powerful Peronist-dominated labour movement.\n\nThat anger was audible ahead of the Senate vote Wednesday in downtown Buenos Aires, as bankers, teachers, truckers and thousands of union members and activists converged around Congress, chanting: \u201cOur country is not for sale!\u201d\n\n","htmlText":"<p>After an all-night voting marathon, Argentina's Senate approved President Javier Milei 's sweeping proposals to slash spending and boost his own powers, as thousands of protesters clashed with police outside the building.<\/p>\n<p>Senators voted 37 to 36 to give provisional approval to the two bills while thousands of protesters poured into the streets, burning cars and throwing Molotov cocktails as hundreds of federal security forces pushed back with rounds of tear gas and water cannons.<\/p>\n<p>The vote \u2014 which was decided by a tiebreaker from Vice President Victoria Villarruel \u2014 delivered a major boost to Milei, whose efforts to reshape the government and economy have run into tough resistance in Argentina's opposition-dominated Congress.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget--type-image widget--size-fullwidth widget--animation-fade-in widget--align-center\" data-ratio=\"0.6669921875\">\n <div class=\"widget__wrapper\">\n <div class=\"widget__ratio widget__ratio--auto\">\n <div class=\"widget__contents\">\n <figure class=\"widget__figure\">\n <img class=\"widgetImage__image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=https://www.euronews.com/"https:////static.euronews.com//articles//stories//08//49//93//52//808x539_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg/" alt=\"Argentine Vice President and Senate President Victoria Villarruel speaks before casting the tie-breaking vote in favor of a bill promoted by President Javier Milei.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/384x256_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 384w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/640x427_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 640w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/750x500_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 750w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/828x552_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 828w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/1080x720_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/1200x800_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/08\/49\/93\/52\/1920x1281_cmsv2_656075b7-41c4-516e-b9d6-bb64f829b72f-8499352.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 95vw, (max-width: 1024px) 80vw, (max-width: 1280px) 55vw, 728px\"\/>\n <figcaption class=\"widget__caption\">\n <span class=\"widget__captionWrap\">\n <span class=\"widget__captionText\">Argentine Vice President and Senate President Victoria Villarruel speaks before casting the tie-breaking vote in favor of a bill promoted by President Javier Milei.<\/span>\n <span class=\"widget__captionCredit\">AP<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/figure>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>\u201cTonight is a triumph for the Argentine people and the first step toward the recovery of our greatness,\" Milei posted on X, calling his bills \u201cthe most most ambitious legislative reform of the last 40 years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But critical elements of the wide-ranging legislation still have to survive an article-by-article vote in the Senate.

He not only shows the device working but also explains how he made it, using readily available materials and a code he programmed himself. \n\nHe claims he first trained an artificial intelligence (AI) model to specifically recognise reggaeton songs. To do this, he downloaded representative tracks of the genre and uploaded them to Edge Impulse, a machine-learning development platform. \n\nOnce the AI was ready, it was time for the hardware. The programmer says he added a 3D-printed front and a small OLED screen to a metal box. Inside, he put a Raspberry Pi 3 into which he loaded the AI model he had trained. \n\nTo detect the music, he added a microphone and wrote a Python code to monitor it and send the sounds to the recognition software. \n\nSo what happens if the machine detects reggaeton? \n\n\"If the inference exceeds a level of recognition, for example, 75 per cent certainty that it's my neighbour's preferred genre, the machine sends multiple requests and packets [via Bluetooth] to the speaker, for which I have the MAC address, in order to turn it off or at least jam the audio,\" Bandini explained in a video posted on social media. \n\nHis inspiration came from TV-B-Gone, a universal remote control launched in 2004 capable of turning off TVs in public places such as shops, bars, and waiting rooms. It was created by Mitch Altman, a US hacker and inventor. \n\n\n\"I understand that jamming a neighbour's speaker might be illegal, but on the other hand listening to reggaeton every day at 9 AM should definitely be illegal,\" Bandini added in his social video. \n\nHis invention has gone viral, but he refuses to make a business out of it. \n\n\"I understand the huge commercial opportunity of making this equipment and selling it en masse, but as Bartleby said, 'I'd rather not',\" he wrote in a post on Medium . \n\nIf you're into programming and want to make your own [insert your most hated genre of music] Be Gone, Bandini has also posted a step-by-step guide . \n\n","htmlText":"<p>Argentinian programmer and artist\u00a0Roni Bandini has a neighbour who likes reggaeton but usually plays it at odd hours with a Bluetooth speaker close to his wall.<\/p>\n<p>While many people might ask their neighbour to turn the music down, Bandini solved his problem in a different way: by\u00a0inventing a machine called \"Reggaeton Be Gone\".<\/p>\n<p>It is a box equipped with a microphone, a small computer and an algorithm that detects when a reggaeton song is on and interferes with the speaker on which it is being played.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget--type-tweet widget--size-fullwidth widget--align-center\">\n <div class=\"widget__wrapper\">\n <div class=\"widget__ratio widget__ratio\u2014auto\">\n <div class=\"widget__contents\">\n <figure class=\"widget__figure\">\n <div class=\"widget__tweet\" data-tweet-id=\"1760086475490709961\"><\/div>\n <\/figure>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Bandini shared his story in a video that went viral.

Land that has sustained thousands of Indigenous communities that have lived within here since before Elon Musk was but a glint in his mother's eye. \n\nAs the world\u2019s most powerful increasingly look to the triangle as a crucial puzzle piece in their plans, many worry the search for lithium will mean sacrificing that very life force that has sustained the region\u2019s native people for centuries. \n\nHow do we live without fresh water to drink? \n\n\nIrene Leonor Flores de Callata\u2019s native Kolla people have spent centuries climbing deep into the mountains of northern Argentina in search of a simple substance: fresh drinking water. \n\nThe parched waterways surrounding their town are intrinsically connected with spanning white salt flats below, subterranean lagoons with waters jam-packed with the material that\u2019s come to be known as \u201cwhite gold\u201d \u2013 lithium . \n\n\u201cWe will lose everything,\u201d says Flores de Callata, 68, as she treks along a bone-dry riverbed, guiding a herd of llamas and sheep through stretching desert. \n\n\u201cWhat will we do if we don\u2019t have water? If the mines come, we\u2019ll lose our culture, we won\u2019t be left with anything.\u201d \n\nHere, in one of the most arid environments in the world, water is a life force that underpins everything. \n\nLithium: The material of the moment \n\nBetween 2021 and 2023, the price for one ton of lithium in US markets nearly tripled, reaching a high of $46,000 (\u20ac42,000) a ton last year, according to a United States Geological Survey report.\u00a0 \n\nIn China , the main customer of the region\u2019s lithium, a ton of the metal went for a whopping $76,000\u00a0(\u20ac69,000) at its peak last year. \n\nWhile prices have since dipped, leaders, mining executives and companies from across the world began to turn their heads. From the US and China, they looked to the region\u2019s barren deserts both as a source of wealth and an engine to power the transition to green energy. \n\nLithium is extracted from salt flats \n\n\nThe \u201cwhite gold\u201d they seek is contained in the hundreds of salt flats, or 'salares', speckling the region. \n\nFrom afar, they look like fields of Arctic snow, but below are deep wells of salted groundwater packed with minerals. Unlike other forms of mining, lithium here is extracted not from rock, but rather from the brine water pumped from the salt flats. \n\nThe problem is that the salt flats also act as an essential part of a highly biodiverse ecosystem, say scientists like Ingrid Garc\u00e9s, a hydrologist from Chile\u2019s University of Antofagasta. \n\nWhile the water inside the lagoons is not drinkable, they are tethered to surrounding fresh water sources, sparse rains and nearby mountain streams, essential for the survival of thousands of Indigenous communities . \n\nThe concern by scientists, interviewed by the Associated Press agency, is that industrial-scale water pumping both contaminates fresh water with brine they pump and effectively dries up the surrounding environment. They say it\u2019s produced cascading ripple effects for life in the region at a time it\u2019s already been hit by climate change-induced drought. \n\nGrowing tired of fending off mining companies \n\n\nBecause of their environmental significance, the salt flats and their surrounding waters have gained a sacred place for Indigenous cultures, an essential part of native celebrations the entire month of August. \n\nFlores de Callata\u2019s town is one of 38 pressed up against two such salt flats \u2013 the Guayatayoc lagoon and Salinas Grandes \u2013 which bring income to towns like hers through tourism and small-scale salt harvesting. \n\nFor decades, their collective of communities have fought off large-scale mining and waged long legal battles to halt projects. \n\nBut year by year, it\u2019s grown more difficult to fend off those mining companies. \n\nMore than 30 companies are officially seeking permission to mine the water in the two salt flats. Signs put up by the community line the edges of the flats reading, \u201cRespect our territory. Get out, lithium company.\u201d \n\n\u201cWe are guardians of the highlands,\u201d said Flores de Callata. \u201cWe defend our land. \u2026 I\u2019m worried not just for myself but for all of us. If the lithium (mines) come it\u2019s going to affect the entire region, all of the waterways by extension.\u201d \n\nHas the local government violated international law by allowing mining? \n\n\nThings came to a head last summer when the local government, eager for the profits by the mines, changed its constitution, making it easier to waive certain Indigenous land rights and limiting the ability to protest against the expansion of mining . \n\nAlicia Chalabe, the environmental lawyer representing the communities, and others argue the move violates international law. \n\nThousands of Indigenous people erupted in protest, blocking off roadways used by lithium mines and carrying rainbow-coloured Indigenous flags. \n\nDoors for the mining companies have been left wide open under the country\u2019s new right-wing \u201canarcho-capitalist\u201d leader Javier Milei, who was elected in November, under a promise to fix his country\u2019s spiraling economy. \n\nThe chainsaw-wielding leader has announced a broad deregulation sweep, slashing costs for mining companies in an effort to lure investors amid deepening economic crisis. Milei\u2019s rise to power will likely further hamstring already fraught efforts by indigenous communities to beat back mining companies. \n\nFor Flores de Callata and her small town of Tusaquillas, the mounting interest in their home represents another nightmare scenario. \n\nShe wonders what will be left in 20 years. \n\n\u201cIf the mines come, we\u2019ll have money for a time. But then our grandchildren, our great-grandchildren \u2013 they\u2019re the ones who will suffer,\u201d she said. \u201cI want to do everything possible to defend these lands, so they still have these fields, so they still have their waters.\u201d \n\n","htmlText":"<p>The &#039;lithium triangle&#039; - spanning Argentina, Chile and Bolivia - is home to the largest reserve of lithium anywhere on Earth. <\/p>\n<p>This metal is key in the transition to net zero, used in electric car batteries, crucial to solar and wind energy and much more.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But to extract it, mines suck water out of the white salt flats that cover this land.

Javier Milei faced a judicial blow in court on Wednesday when three judges suspended the labour rule modifications\u00a0he recently introduced as part of a plan aimed at deregulating Argentina's struggling economy. \n\nThe legal battle was filed by the General Labour Confederation, the primary union group,\u00a0which pleaded on the fact that the announced changes impinged on workers' rights. \n\nIn December, Milei's decree involved more than 300 regulations, such as extending the probationary\u00a0period for jobs from three to eight months, reducing severance compensation, and allowing the possibility of\u00a0dismissing workers participating in blockades during certain protests. \n\nJudge Alejandro Sudera, part of the judge panel, argued that the administration exceeded its authority in\u00a0unilaterally decreeing labour changes without prior discussion and approval by Congress. \n\nMilei's government said it would appeal the court's ruling. \n\nThe union confederation applauded the ruling, characterising it as a halt to regressive and anti-worker labour reforms.\u00a0 \n\nCritics, including labour activists, questioned Milei's ability to implement such measures
