Around 10,000 protesters chanted "Get out Bush!" today on the streets of the Argentinean resort which is hosting the Summit of the Americas.
Celebrities including the Argentinean soccer legend Diego Maradona are among the demonstrators who have gathered at the resort of Mar Del Plata, where the two-day summit starts later today.
The US president, George Bush, arrived late last night at the resort, 250 miles south of Buenos Aires. He faces a fight to press forward his administration's free trade proposals at the 34-nation summit.
