He President Javier Milei will travel to Washington DC tonight, where tomorrow he will speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), during the annual meeting that brings together leaders of the right in the United States, official sources reported. The trip will take place following responding, through the account of the President’s Office, to the threat of the governor of Chubut, Ignacio Torres, to cut off oil and gas if they do not send him sharing funds.
The head of state will travel on a commercial flight, accompanied by a small entourage made up of the Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, and the designated Argentine ambassador to the United States, Gerardo Werthein, among others, the sources said.
Milei will be one of the speakers at the meeting, which began last Wednesday and concludes tomorrow, in a meeting in which the former US president and candidate for the Republican Party nomination for a second term, Donald Trump, will also have the floor.
Other scheduled speakers include former White House adviser during the Trump administration, Steve Bannon; the president of the Spanish party Vox, Santiago Abascal; and the leader of the United Kingdom Independence Party, Nigel Farage, who was the main driver of that country’s departure from the European Union, which occurred on January 31, 2020, known as “Brexit.”

The President will not hold a formal meeting with Trump, who will speak at 12 (local time), while Milei is scheduled to speak at 2:55 p.m. (local time), according to the program released by the organizers.
Own Milei had announced in journalistic statements that the meeting with Trump was “very difficult,” since I was speaking before him, and due to his arrival on a scheduled flight they did not give the times for an appointment.
