Information on problems faced by Jehovah's Witnesses in Argentina in 1991 and 1992 could not be found among the sources currently available to the DIRB.

For your reference, please find attached two recent articles from Latinamerica Press referring to non-Catholic Christian churches in Argentina. One of the articles, dated 2 September 1992, refers to changes in the educational system that could jeopardize the secular nature of schooling in Argentina to favour Catholicism, while the other deals with the coordination of efforts by non-Catholic Christian churches to promote change.
