Emmanuel Macron congratulated, this Monday, the ultraliberal economist Javier Milei on his election to the presidency of Argentina, this Sunday, November 10, while insisting on “the importance of global issues” after controversial positions taken by his new counterpart. During a telephone interview, the French president underlined “the friendship, based on common values, which binds the French and Argentine people,” said the Élysée.

He also insisted “on the importance he attached to global issues, the protection of biodiversity and the energy transition, now essential for sustainable economic development,” he added.

A polemicist popular on TV sets for years, but emerged in politics two years ago, Javier Milei, promised to make Argentina “a world power” again, not without recalling the slogans of Donald Trump.

He became known for his controversial ideas, such as the deregulation of the sale of arms, his opposition to abortion or his declarations on climate change, which according to him is a “cycle”, not “a responsibility of the man “.
