Javier Milei referred to the possibility of signing a commercial agreement with the USA.
“We trust that the good understanding we are building among our administrations will be helpful for both nations. Argentina and the United States share a great affinity. Both nations are daughters of Western civilization, flag bearer of the fundamental rights to life, freedom and private property, “Milei continued.
“In spite of ours, in a moment Argentina lost the course. A long list of politicians blinded by socialism applied endless wrong ideas that brutally impoverished us. And they found in the United States an scapegoat for the evils that they themselves had generated instead of a potential partner with which to grow together. This wrong attitude found its pinnacle in 2005, when we turned our backs on a free trade agreement with the United States and lost the opportunity to advance national development for 10 years, “he continued.

“On commercial level, We understand the proposal of reciprocal tariff prepared by President Trump, and we are ready to sign a commercial agreement on that linewhich will undoubtedly benefit both the United States and Argentina. Because greater commercial integration means nothing more or nothing less than the citizens of both nations can access better quality goods and services at a better price, “he said.
