Overview
- In a CNN interview preview released this week, Javier Milei said he is working actively to build a roughly 10-nation alliance to oppose socialist and “woke” currents.
- Government sources describe the effort as informal with no formal name yet, with structure and membership still under discussion.
- Reporting in Argentine outlets lists potential participants including José Antonio Kast, Santiago Peña, Rodrigo Paz, Daniel Noboa, Nayib Bukele, José Jerí, José Raúl Mulino and Luis Abinader.
- The plan anticipates a leaders’ gathering in Argentina in 2026 to advance the project, following months of bilateral outreach by Milei to like-minded presidents.
- Advisers present the initiative as aligned with Washington’s line under Trump and aimed at countering the influence of Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela, as well as providing a counterpoint to leaders like Lula da Silva, Gustavo Petro and Claudia Sheinbaum.
