Milei Uses Miami Forum to Claim Mandate and Preview December Reform Drive

He pitches Argentina to investors, promising labor, tax, penal changes from December.

Overview

  • Speaking at the American Business Forum in Miami, Javier Milei said Argentines "chose freedom" and framed his election as a mandate for a pro-market program.
  • He presented capitalism as morally superior and condemned socialism, introducing the "riesgo kirchnerista" label to describe political risk.
  • He asserted that economic stabilization was achieved with social consensus but without political consensus, arguing Kirchnerism raises financing costs for firms.
  • He claimed investment announcements now exceed $100 billion in the past year, with over $50 billion in approval stages, and thanked Donald Trump for quadrupling Argentina’s beef export quota.
  • His U.S. tour continues with CPAC in Palm Beach and events in New York, after appearing alongside senior aides and receiving a gift from Miami mayor Francis Suarez.
