Iran Press/ America: The participants in the demonstration in Buenos Aires which was held on Friday, also denounce Argentina's government for spending freely on the summit while the public endures rocketing inflation and unemployment, Iran Press reported.
They paraded with signs attacking the US President Donald Trump and the International Monetary Fund, whose largesse is keeping Argentina afloat at the cost of hard-hitting austerity measures.
The summit began in the Argentinian capital with a traditional "family photo" by the leaders of a group whose relationships range from warm and friendly to chilly and distrustful.
On the other hand, the meeting is being held in Argentina while the country's prosecutors are considering charging Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman with war crimes and torture.

The meeting is being held in Argentina, while the country goes through a painful economic crisis.
Argentina's President "Mauricio Macri", a free markets advocate elected in 2015 amid high hopes that he could straighten out an economy distorted by years of heavy-handed trade and currency controls, has seen his popularity fall as the local peso currency loses value and average Argentines lose purchasing power.
The government said 25,000 police were on hand in case violence broke out. Last year, when Germany hosted the G20 summit in the northern port city of Hamburg, police struggled to contain black-clad anti-capitalist protesters who torched cars, looted shops and hurled Molotov cocktails while thousands of people demonstrated peacefully.
