Reverso Debunks Claim Milei’s Image Was Pasted Into Two Official Photos

A Reverso analysis found distinct visual and contextual cues showing the images are separate shots.

Overview

  • Fact-checkers from Chequeado and AFP reported observable differences in the pictures, including jacket wrinkles, zipper position, hairstyle and the angle of Milei’s face.
  • The September 10 photo was posted by Chief of Staff Guillermo Francos on X from a meeting of the newly formed Mesa Federal.
  • The September 9 photo was published by La Libertad Avanza showing the first session of the Mesa Política Nacional.
  • A specific online claim about a missing flag reflection was disproved, as the reflection is visible on the tabletop but largely obscured by Finance Minister Luis Caputo’s hands.
  • The images, which documented strategy meetings created after a provincial electoral loss, are part of the government’s campaign relaunch ahead of the October 26 national elections.
