Right-wing libertarian Javier Milei wins Argentina's presidential election • FRANCE 24 English

Argentina elected libertarian outsider Javier Milei as its new president on Sunday, rolling the dice on an outsider with radical views to fix an economy battered by triple-digit inflation, a looming recession and rising poverty. FRANCE 24's Jan Onoszko reports.

The media just can't stop using the words far right.

[dadaistaingegniere]

First time in history a libertarian is in charge. The fight will be fierce.

[joseperez]

If MSM calls you far right, you just know that you’re right, well done Argentina.

[daliborzak]

Thank you for not naming Javier as "far-right" or "populist" as many media do. Right-wing libertarian is so far the most polite name for him. I hope he will deliver.

[volker]

Does "far right" mean anti corruption?
Does "far right" mean anti socialist?
What's bad about "far right then"

[natllite]

Great news for the people of Argentina.

[rozikrealm]

Way to Go Argentina, Congrats from Egypt.

[MichaelClerk-xdft]

Why you called him far right??? Oh, forgot, because French 24 is far left.

[mclurr]

You can see it's a great win by the reaction if the media

[lewis]

Good for him. Its good to see the Argentinians are prepared for radical change and a rejection of the old and corrupt Peronist movement

[PancakeInu]

Anything that isn't with the left is considered "right-wing" 😂

[gringopablo]

He won't be "relaxing gun laws", he wants the actual law to be apply correctly.

[andrewjutub]

A right-wing government always boosts economic growth in the country. Look at my country - Poland as an example - 8 years of right-wing rule has changed my whole country. Good luck Argentina!

[RWROW]

Hard to forget that if you go back far enough Argentina and Australia had similar per capita GNPs.

[GlobetrotterGranny]

Argentina now has an opportunity to regain its prosperity and freedoms!

[randymarsh]

Far right? Don't be silly. Stop trying to scare the people who only read the headlines.

[irishwars]

How is a libertarian, far right? That label is losing power quickly

[chrisbacos]

All I can say as with all election winners is give him a chance

[joshuaradick]

0:35 “Struggling at the moment”? Argentina has been struggling for decades.

China 🇨🇳 offered him $1 billion a year, a Chinese citizenship, and a young mistress for a 5-year contract.
Messi refused.
- He said nothing can replace his freedom of speech.
