Milei to Attend Paz Pereira’s Inauguration in Bolivia on Tight One-Day Visit

Argentine officials cast the trip as a first step toward easing Milei’s regional isolation through closer alignment with Bolivia’s incoming leadership.

Overview

  • He will address a Council of the Americas investment forum at 12:00 in New York, then depart at 19:00 on a special flight to Santa Cruz de la Sierra, arriving around 03:00 Saturday.
  • On Saturday he will fly to El Alto at 09:30, attend the legislative Solemn Session at 11:00, greet Rodrigo Paz Pereira, witness the bastón de mando at 13:00, and depart at 14:00 to reach Buenos Aires at 17:35.
  • Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno will accompany the president in La Paz, according to the Argentine government.
  • Casa Rosada characterizes Paz Pereira’s win as the start of a regional political realignment favorable to Milei, which officials also connect to renewed U.S. influence under President Trump.
  • A private visit to the Ohel, the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s tomb, is expected according to close sources, though it is not on the official schedule.
