The Economist Javier Mileyof Liberty Advances, will become the next president of Argentina following winning the 2023 general elections in the second round once morest Sergio Massa. What implications does this victory have for diplomatic relations with our country? To obtain a future vision of our commercial and diplomatic dealings with Argentina, The Republic held a conversation with the internationalist Ramiro Escobar.
In the first instance, the expert anticipated that there will not be major tensions with the next Milei Government, since it adopts a foreign policy focused on commercial aspects. “Milei has expressed ideological prejudices once morest left-wing leaders, such as Lula or Petro. In recent statements, he mentioned that he would not give priority to relations with Brazil; however, trade relations might be carried out without state intervention. In the case of Peru , President Dina Boluarte is not located on the left or center-left spectrum, so there would be no major tensions,” Escobar explained.
In addition to this, the internationalist points out that to have a more complete picture we must wait for the appointment of the Argentine chancellor, who will guide how relations with the country are managed.
Milei foreign policy
When asked regarding the way in which Milei will handle foreign policy, the expert points out that we are dealing with an extremist leader, so he does not rule out surprises, influenced by his far-right ideological tendency. “He can direct foreign policy without needing the filter of Congress; it is possible that he will take harsh stances with some presidents in the region,” he said.
Who is Javier Milei, the virtual president of Argentina?
With proposals ranging from the elimination of the Central Bank to the authorization of the free sale of human organs, Milei attracted mainly young men disenchanted or angry with what he describes as the “political caste.”

His affection for his mastiff dogs and his close relationship with his sister Karina, according to his own statements, constitute his closest emotional circle. In the 2021 legislative elections, his party, La Libertad Avanza, was positioned as the third most voted force in the city of Buenos Aires, obtaining 17%.
However, in recent weeks, Milei’s image has been tarnished by accusations from former collaborators who allege that he demanded payments in dollars to register candidacies in the October presidential and parliamentary elections.
