Macron in Argentina to “attach” Milei to the “international consensus”
This Saturday, Emmanuel Macron is expected in Argentina to meet ultraliberal President Javier Milei, admirer of Donald Trump, in the hope of “hooking him up” to the “international consensus” on the eve of the G20 in Brazil.

The two men share a policy of clear cuts in public spending and toy with the idea of turning their backs on major multilateral climate agreements and objectives.
