▶️ Protests continued in Colombian capital Bogota, Thursday, Nov. 21, as students clashed with police.
Angry protesters took to the streets with a long list of grievances against the conservative government of President Iván Duque.
👉 Colombian unions and student groups staged a strike on Thursday, with marches demanding the government maintain minimum wages for young people and the universal right to a pension.
At a time of widespread unrest in other Latin American countries, police this week raided activists and a culture magazine ahead of the protest, while Colombia's President Ivan Duque warned that his government will not tolerate violence.
The president also repeatedly has denied that he plans to propose pension and tax reform laws containing the changes alleged by protesters. Duque said he immediately rejected the idea of reducing youth salaries when a think tank proposed it. (AP/Reuters)
