  "account": "Argentina's ruling party La Libertad Avanza (LLA) has made a significant shift in its stance on foreign land ownership, reversing its earlier decision to eliminate restrictions on the matter. Opposition forces in Congress have been pressuring lawmakers to address this issue, leading to a last-minute agreement among LLA and its allies to reinstate limits on foreign land purchases. This development comes after the opposition threatened to call a special session to discuss overturning a presidential decree known as DNU 70/23, which repealed the country's Land Law. The Land Law, passed in 2011 during former President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner's tenure, stipulated that foreigners could only own up to 15% of Argentina's land. The original decree by President Milei's administration sought to lift these restrictions entirely, but a federal judge temporarily blocked this move, deeming the article unconstitutional. The controversy has reignited debates on the balance between economic opportunities and the need to protect local communities.",
