Milei vs. China: Will Argentina's New Leader Bite His Words?

Will president-elect Javier Milei have to eat his own words after having mentioned during the campaign that he was not going to do business with China?

How have previous Argentine governments behaved in commercial and diplomatic relations with China? Is China the most important trading partner for Argentina at the moment? What have been China's first reactions to the new Argentine government?

Let's find out by answering each of these questions throughout today's video.

China begins to react with the suspension of the US$6.5 billion SWAP reinforcement to Argentina. It seems that the good economic and diplomatic relationship that China maintained with the previous Argentine government is beginning to crumble in a few weeks since the new far-right president-elect Javier Milei took office.

The only way that President Javier Milei can make Argentina an Economic Powerhouse, is to ask the US to bring the Dollar Printing Machine to Argentina.

Milei ends up biting his tongue. Don't cry for him, Argentina

[madsam]

It’s always not a good idea to mix business with politics.

[JO-etir]

Maybe he thought he could sell beef to India and soybeans to the US.

[iamsheep]

Milei: we refuse to work with China!
China: OK.
Milei: no, wait….

[mrsttong]

Sad that some politicians, belittle other world leaders for their own political gains.

Popularity should not take precedence over meritocracy in leadership: one fundamental weakness in exercising popular vote.

I find it confusing that Milei calls China communist but ignores the fact that his beloved USA and EU are highly taxed and heavily regulated economies ruled by left wingers. In France, the government expenditure for 2022 is as high as 58% of the total GDP. How's that libertarian, Milei?

On the other hand, if he uses the word "communist" to refer to human rights abuse then what did he do in Israel which had killed more than 20000 people in Gaza?

Argentine people choose him, so be it………freedom from thousand miles away China, and slaved by
next door US ?

[petergreen]

Let us hope for the best for Argentina.

Argentina will pay for Milei's stupidity

Argentina is paying for its stupidity of putting Milei in charge

[user-artI--ama]

Anyone with messy hair will be a messy leader 😉

Let us judge J.Milei at the end of his term and see if his policies will have resolved Argentina' s economic and social problems.

[Arcy]

Milei, Milei! What planet are you living in?

[RobertChan-gebq]

Let this country enjoy their blessings of the American and their people will turn to God for help and mercy of their lives with such a selfish president that needs USD only for his own pocket

[picandvideo]

Looks like a junkie in charge of a country 🤨😬😣

[georgecolon]

It looks like the president of Argentina is letting his mouth run his brain, seriously, because literally speaking, Chinese modernizing, and upgrading the Argentinian structure for the cost of just influence (soft power) which is great but Milei seems to be autodestructive
