Argentine President Milei Accused of Plagiarizing 'West Wing' Speech at UN

Javier Milei's UN address draws criticism for its striking resemblance to a monologue from the TV drama 'The West Wing.'

Javier Milei, Argentina's president, delivered a speech at the UN General Assembly that closely mirrors a monologue from 'The West Wing.'
Columnist Carlos Pagni highlighted the similarities in the Argentine daily La Nacion, sparking widespread attention.
Milei's chief strategist, Santiago Caputo, is known for his admiration of the show's creator, Aaron Sorkin, having watched the series multiple times.
The speech included themes of freedom and opposition to tyranny, echoing the fictional President Bartlet's words from a 2003 episode.
The incident has drawn ironic comparisons due to Milei's right-wing politics and the progressive nature of the show's fictional president.
