The Lugones avenue, one of the main accesses to Buenos Aires city form the north, shows an unusually light traffic on April 10, 2014, during the general strike in Argentina. A strike promoted by three out of five workers' unions started at midnight demanding to the government of President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner to take measures against inflation and an adjustment in the price of services. Argentina braced Wednesday for a major strike in a fresh challenge to President Cristina Kirchner amid growing public discontent over high inflation and crime. AFP PHOTO/DANIEL GARCIA
