このコンテンツについて
Javier Milei has been at the center of a political and economic storm over the past few days, with developments that could define not only his presidency but Argentina’s fate for years to come. Fresh from a contentious visit to Washington DC, Milei secured a headline-grabbing $20 billion bailout from the United States. This wouldn’t be the Milei show unless it came with some drama: US President Donald Trump directly tied the aid to Milei’s re-election prospects, pointedly warning that the promised funds could be yanked if a “socialist or communist wins” Argentina’s big vote coming up on October 26, according to the Buenos Aires Times. The White House meeting between Milei and Trump was historic, with Trump touting Milei as a “great leader,” and Milei gushing thanks for US backing as he jockeys for survival against a surging opposition.
Financially, the impact was immediate—Argentine stocks and bonds spiked on news of the swap line, while US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed the deal and hinted at possibly doubling US monetary support to $40 billion if Milei holds power. According to Bloomberg, this is designed to stabilize Argentina’s collapsed peso and reassure nervous investors. Bessent also pointed out the policy specifics: US help would continue as long as Milei can veto moves from Congress that oppose his radical economic agenda. But this “vote of confidence” comes at a moment of sharp domestic unrest. Jacobin magazine details how retirees have suffered from Milei’s austerity: average pensions now sit far below the poverty line, and protests—met with aggressive police tactics—are growing as public anger simmers over deep social cuts.
Milei’s government has also been marred by fresh scandals. The Buenos Aires Times reports that his sister and right-hand woman, Karina Milei, is embroiled in corruption allegations, and media are in a frenzy over ties between a suspected drug trafficker and one of his former top political candidates. The president himself remains defiant, telling CNBC he will stick to his agenda of deregulation and spending cuts through the end of his term and refusing to comment further on rumored US trade deals.
On social media, debate is fierce. Critics like centrist Senator Martin Lousteau accused Trump of interfering in Argentina’s sovereignty, while supporters hail Milei’s Washington visit as proof of international confidence. US officials, for their part, insisted the support will last until 2027 barring any dramatic change.
To sum it up, the past days have been a whirlwind of high-stakes diplomacy, domestic strife, and looming election tension for Javier Milei—a political biography written in real time.
