On 7 November 2024, Victoria Villarruel, vice-president of Argentina, labelled the book Cometierra on her X account as immoral and degrading, sharing excerpts and calling for its removal from schools and libraries.”
IFEX-ALC, Alianza Regional por la Libre Expresión e Información [the Regional Alliance for Free Expression and Information], and Red Voces del Sur [the Voices of the South network]- three regional networks defending freedom of expression and press freedom– express our concern over the closure of civic space in Argentina as a consequence of the subjugation of freedom of information, expression, press, demonstration and peaceful assembly promoted by the current administration.
Since January 2024, at least 61 attacks against the Argentine press have been recorded.
