Vox Announces Invitation for Milei to 'Viva 2025' Far-Right Summit in Madrid Next Weekend

Official confirmation from Buenos Aires remains pending.

Overview

  • The Spanish party said the Viva 2025 gathering of the European Patriots group is set for September 13–14 at Madrid's Palacio Vistalegre.
  • Vox spokesperson Juan Antonio Fúster billed it as "the biggest political event of the year" and promoted participation by Milei and other unnamed international figures.
  • The Argentine presidency has not yet confirmed whether President Javier Milei will travel to attend.
  • Organizers have adopted the "Make Europe Great Again" slogan and say the event seeks a cultural and political confrontation with Spain's current government.
  • The invitation follows a heavy electoral setback for Milei's party and comes after his 2024 appearance with Vox sparked a diplomatic rift when he called the Spanish prime minister's wife "corrupt," prompting Spain to recall its ambassador from Buenos Aires.
