Argentina 's Congress upholds President Javier Milei's veto of a bill to increase pensions.

President Milei last week blocked an 8.1-percent pension increase initially approved by both houses of Congress .

Pensioners clashed with police outside Congress after the vote, with police firing rubber bullets at one group.

Milei has applied a drastic austerity program in a bid to rein in chronic inflation and decades of government overspending.
