NEW YORK: US President Donald Trump ‘endorsed’ President of Argentina Javier Milei for the upcoming elections, as Argentina is set to hit the polls on October 26.
In a post on X, The White House said, “US President Donald Trump with Argentinian President Javier Milei: He’s done a fantastic job!”
Trump, on the sidelines of UNGA, called Milei his ‘friend’, saying that he needs another term to clear the mess he had inherited, akin to him.
“Well, thank you very much everybody. We have a lot of meetings scheduled, but I wanted to meet with the President of Argentina and we both wanted to meet. We’re friends. He’s done a fantastic job and I’m doing something that I don’t often do. I’m giving a full endorsement to him. We just endorsed him for president,” Trump said, addressing the reporters.
