BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentina formally requested on Thursday to join NATO as a global partner, a status that would clear the way for greater political and security cooperation at a time when the right-wing government of President Javier Milei aims to boost ties with Western powers and attract investment.

The request came as NATO’s Deputy General Secretary Mircea Geoana held talks in Brussels on regional security challenges with visiting Argentine Defense Minister Luis Petri.

Can we have some obligatory "Reeeeeee!" now?

Upon taking office, Milei’s plan was to devalue the Peso by 50% setting it closer to the U.S. currency’s value on the parallel retail market. It’s how the Austrian School quells triple digit inflation.

He told everyone this would happen but Tits McGee here doesn’t understand economics.

UK? Super Etendard - "Standard/Banner" - is a French jet.

EDIT: Apparently the parts are UK sourced.

Smart move by Milei, though! Those things are way out of date anyway.

you guys are praising media, not reality. they sold Miley hard in US. which is where my distrust is. if they have to sell it… man is an actor fascist.

otherwise don’t care, not my country.

"All these politicians who blame the human race for climate change are fake and are only looking to raise money to finance socialist bums who write fourth-rate newspapers.” - Javier Milei speaking about Watermelons in https://english.elpais.com/climate/2023-11-30/climate-denier-in-the-casa-rosada-mileis-arrival-puts-argentinas-environmental-agenda-at-risk.html

If you don't know what I mean by "Watermelon", here is a visual clue:

they are marketing and selling him like he’s a messiah. and life teaches us that marketing is generally a lie. good luck Argentina, every time US did that, place went to hell in a few years.

After taking the country's inflation rate of about 34% year to date, the real return on the stock market is waaaaaay below that of the US.

... but yes, there are lots of pseudo-media companies pumping what the guy is doing. Needless to say, he is trying for some more funding from the IMF.

Yeah, he's been President of Argentina since December 2023 and inflation has jumped: https://tradingeconomics.com/argentina/inflation-cpi

Milei has warned about economic pain in the beginning of his reforms and as reported below recently by US News

.......................................

"The government of libertarian President Javier Milei, who took office in December, has pushed a tough austerity drive that has battered economic activity and pushed up poverty and unemployment.

The government says the cost-cutting measures are needed to rein in the world's highest inflation that is hovering above 250%, rebuild its foreign reserves and reverse years of deep fiscal deficits.

While monthly inflation has hovered around the same level since May, Milei's government on Sunday presented a 2025 draft budget, in which it predicted inflation just above 18% next year, with GDP growing 5% next year and a further 5% in 2026.

Argentine markets cheered Milei's plan for a "zero" deficit budget but were down slightly on Wednesday ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's announcement it would cut interest rates by 50 basis points."
