President Javier Milei of Argentina restored journalists' access to his government headquarters on Monday, more than a week after his decision to block credentialed reporters from the building — accompanied by a volley of online insults — triggered backlash from lawmakers and press freedom advocates.
Journalists said early Monday that they could enter the Casa Rosada — or the Pink House, Argentina’s equivalent of the White House — for the first time since April 23. That was the day that Milei’s spokesperson announced the closure of the press room used for decades by reporters with credentials to cover the president.
