More riots greet new Argentinian president

Eduardo Duhalde, Argentina’s fifth president in two weeks, was greeted by thousands of jeering, pot-banging demonstrators who swarmed the streets of the capital early this morning.

Confronting the country’s most serious political and economic crisis in decades, the new president from Argentina’s largest party - the Peronists - lashed out at free market policies, blaming them for the country’s economic chaos.
