Poverty in Argentina rose again in the first half of 2026. According to reports, this partly erased the significant improvement achieved during the first two years of Javier Milei's presidency.
According to available data, the rise in poverty is occurring against the backdrop of eroding wages.
The first two years of Javier Milei's rule were accompanied by a marked decline in the country's poverty rate. The current rise in the indicator partly reverses that result.
